I have a flash file calling an xml file which calls jpegs. That flash file is called within PHP framework. The flash file is there but the jpgs don't show. I can't figure out if the problem is with the location of the xml file and/or jpgs or if there is some other reason. The swf file works w/o PHP. I've tried giving the tags absolute links & relative links...I'm clueless. Any suggestions?

trace() is your best friend.
Check out if the location of the Jpeg's being send to Flash is related to the loaction of your flash file...

If your code seems ok, check the image files. I remember once I had this funky issue with flash displaying jpg formats via XML and it seemed like the only thing I could figure out is that I had the progressive display setting checked on the jpg optimization when i exported them out of photoshop.

definitely check the images because flash doesn't support progressive jpegs.

Images don't seem to be the problem. I saved all as "standard" jpegs. The images display when just using the swf or html file its only when i try and go through php that they cease to work.

I've seen similar problems when your SWFs are in a sub directory of your HTML object/embed tag. Your flash is loading external data relative to the location of the SWFs bu, sometimes it is relative to the HTML file (I can't remember in which case it does which). The easiest way to figure out if this is the problem is to put all your SWFs, images, and PHP/HTML in the same directory (and modify the flash accordingly).
