I'm trying to build a Flash game arcade in WP, and it's coming along very well so far.
But some game SWFs need to load external files (MP3 and XML) and WP's permalink rewriting seems to confuse the paths, probably because the SWFs look for the files along the rewritten paths instead of the actual file positions.
Does anyone know a dynamic solution for this?

Hi Frederik77,
I'm having a the same problem loading an xml file. I have the swf and xml folder in the main wordpress folder at the top level.
Oddly, it was working fine until I updated to wp 2.8.5. Now the browser reports that it's looking for the files in, for example if I was on the "example_category" page: mydomain.com/wordpress/example_category/xml when the file is in mydomain.com/wordpress/xml. If I hard code the link (ie instead of the swf loading xml/xml.file it tries to load http://www.mydomain.com/wordpress/xml/xml.file) the browser reports no issues but the flash file does nothing.
Did you find a solution to your problem?
