File redirects completely screwing up my flash file.. Help!
Permalink
Ok.. I've been working on this all day and I'm getting my but whipped.. I have a flash file for a website that contains two flash files, scripts directory, and an XML folder. I originally tried adding it via FTP by putting all of the files in the themes directory.. That didn't work. Then I put them in the main directory.. and I got the flash file to show up. The problem is via the file redirects the page shows up fine when you go to it via the sitemap.. http://www.controlfreakcms.com/websites/appnut/index.php?cID=152.... But when you try to get to the page clicking on the link in the auto-nav it adds stuff (index.php/retailers-and-etailers/international-distributors/) to the url that breaks the flash..
It looks like the flash is showing up.. but that's only half of it.. The store locations under the map aren't showing up. I tried getting rid of the PRETTY URLs and that didn't fix the issue. I tried hiding the page from the auto-nav and main navigation and tried just linking to the page using the full URL and that doesn't work either.
Please advise.. I'm about to throw my computer out the window!

The link from the auto nav is here.. http://www.controlfreakcms.com/websites/appnut/index.php/retailers-...
Am I doing something wrong? All of a sudden I can't get anyone to help in this forum?
Seems to work for me. Could it be a cache issue?
FWIW, the UI is nice and "techie" looking, but from a usability standpoint, blah. :-(
(EDIT: To clarify, I'm referring specifically to the Flash UI forcing the user to hover over a speck with near pixel precision and then click in order to view the desired info.)

This addon might help:

(It's tricky to add flash components that themselves pull in other files, because the files aren't really located where the URL's of a page would indicate that they are -- this is true regardless of whether Pretty URL's are enabled or not).
