Launching a local SWF using http

Post by spoyser »

Is there any way of launching a local SWF, located say in /media via a command line such as:

cd openpeak/tango
./tango http://localhost/media/nameofswf.swf?param1=dog

The above doesn't work but I'm sure there must be a way.

The reason I want to do this is because it seems to be the only way to pass in parameters onto the SWF (it works fine if the swf is hosted online), if I simply do:

cd openpeak/tango
./tango /media/nameofswf.swf?param1=dog

The swf is launched but the parameters are ignored :-(

TIA
