The Problem: When I load a file that contains ANY cfform tag with
format="flash", all I get is a partially rendered object with a spinning clock
for a pointer.

Your initial reaction is probably "oh, thats just bad code"... but, read on..
the plot thickens...

I have 2 domains... Domain.A is hosted out of the root of my folder (i.e.
/hosting)... a second domain, Domain.B is hosted out of a subfolder of the root
(i.e. /hosting/DomainB)...

I have a stripped down page with a cfform format="flash" located at
/hosting/DomainB called test.cfm.

If I open a browser and go to www.domainB.com/test.cfm - the file will NOT
compile or load all the way

If I open another browser and go to www.domainA.com/domainb/test.cfom - the
file loads correctly.

Exact same file, referenced by 2 different domain paths, with 2 different
results.

I have copied this file to various other folders in my main domain, and it
works fine. I have also copied this file to other servers and it runs fine. I
have created new files and placed them in DomainB's folder and they ALL exhibt
the same problems - they will only compile so far and then I get a spinning
clock for all eternity.

I'm at a total loss on this one and would appreciate ANY thoughts...

Thanks all!

is the cfide dir web accessible for domain "b"? if not eother point at it or
copy it to domain "b".

Wolvie....I sure hope you found an answer to your problem and if you'd post it,
i'd be most appreciated.

I have the exact same issue on cfform with flash rendering...

incident and incident has been post with goddaddy and finally got someone to
toss me a tidbit of info.

since i host domains in subfolders as you do i experience the same
works/doesnt work scenario.

I am told the key to this solution is in the Application.cfm file. (not
confirmed)

Now...exactly WHAT is to be declared, i dunno.

however, the acid test is to provide a full path to your failing cfm. if it
works doing that. then its some sort of pointer to the IDE folder in issue (i
am told) (again not figured out...im just sharing at this time)

when i provided the full path ie: www.mySite.com/subfoldername/myForm.cfm the
failing page rendered correctly. (and finally without that GD spinning clock ^^)

so i feel i'm on the right road here.

correction

correct addy test would be: http://mySite/subDirectory/myCF.cfm


paul,

if my site is hosted at say 'GoDaddy', would I have rights to the cfide
folder? could you tell me 'how' to point to it if you could?
thanks
