How would I output <txp:title /> in xml path

Is this possible? I can’t seem to get it to work. I’d like to output <txp:title /> to dynamically change the xml path for my flash movie.

<txp:kml_flashembed movie="../window.swf" height="300" width="400" fvars="xmlfile = ../xml/<txp:title />.xml"/>

Thanks in advance…

Re: How would I output <txp:title /> in xml path

- I still can’t get it to work… I think it’s because the “title” output is not the whole value for fvars…. I’m not sure how to output the ../xml/ .xml around the title output with an array… (and actually get it to work…) If it was fvars=”<txp:title />” it wouldn’t be such an issue… any ideas would be appreciated…

Re: How would I output <txp:title /> in xml path

Could you post your code?

I don’t use the plugin, but have you tried something like this in your article form (ex: default):

<pre>
&#60;txp:php&#62;
$xml = ‘/xml/’.$GLOBALS[‘thisarticle’][‘title’].’.xml’;
echo kml_flashembed (array ( ‘fvars’ => $xml, ‘movie’ => ‘window.swf’, ‘height’ => ‘300’, ‘width’ => ‘400’
));
&#60;/txp:php&#62;
</pre>

I’m not sure if it’ll work, as I’ve never used flash before. window.swf should be referred to as /path/to/window.swf, I think.

Re: How would I output <txp:title /> in xml path

Thank you for your response. I finally decided to pass only the title variable for the xmlfile value to the flash movie (stripped of everything else). I then added the rest of the info (path, .xml etc…) in the flash movie. It works but I’d prefer to have it happen in the page – not in the flash file. I’m going to give your example a try. Thanks again -
