flash (macromedia) : forces me to use 'localhost'

Hello:
I just created my first PHP-MySQL-Flash application. The problem is that when
I access the app from my browser it the dynamic content (variables generated by
php file) aren't showing up. Everything is fine in the testing stage. I can
even access it if I goto http://localhost/myfile.swf But, if I try to use my IP
or domain name the dynamic content disappears.

Any help will be much appreciated!

and it was not a flash problem, so u might not get a lot of help here
but here is the best i can do
there is a problem related to your server
you havent given me enough infomation to know what the problem is, but thats
WHERE it is
so...
work out where your content is, where your databases are, whether the links
are linked properly on the remote(if your server is remote) site and if the
database is apropriately connected
file permissions may also be relevant

hope that helps

did you look into the crossdomain.xml file? There are security issues with
accessing data accross domains in the flash player.

James-
That did it! Thanks so much. I spent many hours trying to figure out what the problem was. Thanks one last time.
