PHP variable holding path string will not render remotely [message #173727] Mon, 02 May 2011 00:16 Go to previous message

Hi,

As I learn about PHP I encounter a problem. I have a test server on my
laptop and am serving flv Flash files. On my localhost laptop it's all
OK. I serve a local flv file and watch the video. So I figure I'd go
on a desktop in my local home network, dial in the ip of my laptop,
and watch a video from the desktop. Everything works OK except this,
(note: $vrelpath is the path to an flv file on my laptop), so:

Given the code:

echo "vrelpath: ". $vrelpath;
$vv = 'ttttt';
echo '<br>'.$vv;

and I see on the local laptop web page:

vrelpath: ./uploaded_vids/File28_final.flv
ttttt

But it renders on the "remote" desktop as:

vrelpath:
ttttt

The $vrelpath string is not getting to the desktop, but another string
$vv is getting to it. So what's going on here?


BTW, If I hard code a link on my laptop with something like this and
serve it to the desktop it works OK:

<a href="./flowplayer/example/Food/tofu_video_preview.flv"
style="display:block;width:520px;height:330px" id="player"> </a>

and the desktop user will get a nice flash video w/control bars...

There's something about that $vrelpath when it holds that path
string(?) Note: if a stick 'zzzz' into $vrelpath it renders on the
desktop OK.

What is the issue? Thanks appreciate the help.
