Set flash src property to an aspx page?

[noneya22]

We have a website that displays images by way of a general purpose
aspx page. We do this because we can't (for security purposes) have
the images in a publicly accessible area that can be referenced
directly via a browser. So, the src of our image tags goes something
like "src=GetFile.aspx?id=1234". I want to do the same thing
with .SWF files, but wanted to know if the flash plug-in would accept
a file for its source that wasn't an .SWF file. Any help would be
much appreciated.

Thanks!

Yes. Since you are indeed feeding it an SWF file (albeit with a different
file extension) it should work.
