[Xitami] Flash

[Francis Turner]

Relative links should definitely be better.

You probably need to add an alias. If /flash/AcceptMeeting.html is in
the directory c:\flash then you will need to create a directory alias
to it as the default root directory for xitami webpages is
c:\xitami\webpages. Hence if you do not put the alias in there when
xitami tries to find /flash/AcceptMeeting.html it looks for
c:\xitami\webpages\flash\AcceptMeeting.html not
c:\flash\AcceptMeeting.html

To create the alias stick
[Alias]
    flash = "c:/flash"
in your c:\xitami\defaults.cfg file (or used the web admin tool to do
the same thing).
