FLASH: relative URLS in Mac IE 4.5: bug?

[Marc Hoffman, Poison Dart Frog Media]

I just became aware that a relative URL in a Flash button goTo was not 

functioning correctly in Mac IE 4.5. I used "../subdir/file.htm" to refer 

to a file in a sibling directory on the server, but IE looked for the 

entire path in the current directory and, of course, came up with a 404 

Page Not Found error.


I'm not surprised to find bugs in Mac IE 4.5, but has this one been 

documented? Is there another way to write a relative path that works, or am 

I stuck using absolute paths?


thanks,

Marc
