html with swf file served by nodejs

[s j]

Hello,

When i embed a swf file on an html file, and try to serve it through node js server, the swf file doesn't appear.  how can i fix this? 

(the callhttpservice.html file has the swf embedded on it, attached is the html page)

var fs = require('fs');
var server = require('http').createServer(function(req, response){
    fs.readFile(__dirname + '/callhttpservice.html', function (err, data) {
    response.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type':'text/html'});
    response.write(data); 
    response.end();
  });
});
server.listen(8080);


thanks for your help

Your http server is currently hard-coded to serve the "callhttpservice.html" file, regardless of what url was actually requested. You should be looking into using a web framework like express (and the "static()" middleware) to serve static files properly for you.

Hi Gloria,

The message you quoted is 2.5 years old, but in the code shown, a server is being created that responds to *all requests* with a particular HTML page. It doesn't matter whether your request is for index.html or image.png or player.swf or movie.flv; the server that was shown will respond with the contents of the HTML page. That's probably not the desired behavior.

Maybe if you show us your code we can help you further.
