    Hello,

    I am trying to use modx as a platform to create an seo friendly flash site. I am using SWFObject to embed a flash movie in the page which then also contains an html version of the content. The flash movie has a button which enables the user to switch to HTML content which uses jquery to remove the flash this works fine and the user can then browse the html version of the content.

    My problem is with flash. I am trying to use SWFAddress to enable the browser back/fwd buttons and deeplinking to individual pages. SWFAddress works by using a hash in the url so...

    www.mysite.com/info -> becomes -> www.mysite.com/#/info

    Usually the use of a hash means the browser thinks you are on the same page and so does not refresh, however with modx the change is detected, not recognised as a page and you are sent back to the home page.

    Is it possible to get modx to ignore all requests to pages which start with the url www.mysite.com/#/

    I am also using friendly URLS by the way.

    I hope thatis clear, any help or alternative approaches much appreciated!

    Thanks.

      Have you had any luck with this? I know this post is old, but I’m about to do the same thing and would like to know what I’m up against. Thanks!
