Right now, I have a client which I've made over 30 panoramas for in SWF format, which are all linked together to form a complete virtual tour experience of their building. I'm having problems getting them uploaded to their website as they work with a third-party website management service (Celect) which does not permit my client to use "relative links" within SWF files. During one attempt I got an error: "p2q_embed_object.js is not included or it is too old! Please copy this file into your HTML directory." which doesn't make sense as I know the JS file is in the same directory as the SWF files.

My client does have the ability to upload media to a folder on their FTP server, and is given basic HTML editing capabilities. Is there a simple way for me to upload the files to their website, create a link to the panoramas and have them appear in a pop-up window?

Hi
Just moved this to a better location as Action Script is more for the Flash Experts, you will get more people seeing this hear.
But added my 2 penny’s worth below

Upload the complete tour with the html and ps embed files in a folder.
Rename the html to index.html
Name the folder to match the tour, e.g. house

You now only need to have a link on your customers web page which has the path to the folder. E.g.

http://www.customersite.com/house

In some cases you may need to add the index.html to the path:

http://www.customersite.com/house/index.html

I don’t know why, but some servers need it
