modify base url using SWFAddress

Question

a question abt using SWFAddress in Flash

Lets say it is possible for a user to reach my website using this url:

www.abc.com/?from=SOME_VALUE_HERE

when i my flash website is loaded. the ?from=SOME_VALUE.. is read and it is no longer useful.

So now when i use SWFAddress.setValue("EXAMPLE")

The browser url to shows www.abc.com/?from=SOME_VALUE_HERE#/EXAMPLE

which is damn ugly.

I hope the site can shows www.abc.com/#/EXAMPLE

Is it possible?

You could use javascript to capture that address and redirect you to to www.abc.com/.

You could use ActionScript to communicate to javascript to reset the url using something like window.location

Perhaps you could also send the from variable using PUT instead of GET which would keep it from appearing in the URL.

Hope that's helpful!
