I have a question that i hope you might be able to help on if you have a few spare minutes. I have developed a swf which i am sending via MMS to a Nokia N91 and Nokia 6234 which have flash lite installed on them. When the phone recieves the MMS it says: 6234: Unable to show object N91: Unable to display message. select objects in options menu for more details. however when i go into 'objects' from the main menu i am able to open the file contained within the mms perfectly, It is in 'objects' with a question mark symbol next to it. When i save it out of objects and into a folder on the phone it becomes a flash lite icon. If you have any ideas about what could be wrong, ive got the feeling i need to put something in the MMS that tells the phone what file it is recieving like /object-type/etc or that mime type stuff? i cant find anything about it anywhere  if you have any ideas or can point me in the right direction i would be extremely grateful | |||

I don't have any experience with Flash Lite ... But you probably do need to make sure that you have the MIME type configured correctly. I believe the MIME type for SWF is "application/x-shockwave-flash". You would want to make sure that this MIME type was specified for the object within the MMS message. (If you are using NowSMS, update the MMSCTYPE.INI file with this information.) If you are using SMIL, I would expect that the object should be referenced with a "<ref>" tag instead of an "<img>" tag. | |||

Bryce thanks for your response and the object header thats extremely helpful, do you know if i place the object header in the smil or does that go into a seperate file? <smil> <head> <layout> <root-layout height="100%" width="100%"/> <region fit="hidden" height="100%" id="Image" left="0" top="0" width="100%"/> <region fit="hidden" height="100%" id="Text" left="0%" top="0%" width="100%"/> </layout> </head> <body> <par dur="80000ms"> <img region="Image" src="test_flash.swf"/> </par> </body> </smil> so rather than use <img region> i should use ref region? thanks again! | |||

It would go into the SMIL file ... instead of "img", you would use "ref". Whether or not that will work, I don't know ... but I believe that is what you should do. | |||
