The last several days have been torchure. Safari and IE have been displaying my flash videos, and firefox would not, so I spend endless hours searching and testing out different combinations, all to no avail. I finally found an article that shed some light on what I was possibly seeing (
article) and decided to contact cfadmins to see if they could help. Kyle finally found the solution, it didn't really have anything to do with the article, it was about a .htaccess file I created to protect the videos for directly downloading them. My .htaccess file looked like this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !tcare
RewriteRule (.*) http://www4.uwm.edu/tcare/training/ [R]
The new one looks like this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} (!tcare)
RewriteRule (.*) http://www4.uwm.edu/tcare/training/ [R]
If you can't tell the difference it is !tcare to (!tcare). For some reason firefox didn't like it.
Thanks Kyle for finding the solution.
Can we agree to put code in <code> tags, and to maybe highlight difference between two similar code blocks by changing color?
ReplyDeleteAnd, for the record, Firefox doesn't ever actually see the .htaccess file, it sees the headers produced by the .htaccess file. I would have been curious as to the change in what is served between the two.
