flash will/won't play

[amyr61]

Hello, I've created a classifieds ad site from HTML templates, which includes a flash logo. The ad pages are located at: www.sierrahorsesales.com/cgi-bin/view_ads.cgi where the flash does NOT display/run. Beneath the "public_html" folder is the "classifieds_templates", where the ad .html files are. The cgi-bin is on the same level as the "classfieds_templates" folder.

The flash will display/play properly on the help/info pages which are in the public_html folder two levels up. ../terms.htm

I'm assuming the path is incorrect on the ad pages, as they are copied from the help/info pages. I just can't wrap my mind around whether I should change the code on the ad pages to read the header.js file in the public_html folder? Or, can I put a second header.js file in the cgi-bin?
God! I'm in such a muddle!

I'm not certain if this will solve it since I haven't done any flash movies as of late but I'll give it a shot.

I'm looking at the raw swf file itself, and it looks bigger than the 750 x 50 size you stated in your header.js file. The movie should be about the same size.

also, try adding this:

[code:1:2dc3a27a60]<param name="SCALE" value="exactfit">[/code:1:2dc3a27a60]

Also, do you have any actionscripting going that tries to dynamically place the text depending on the size of the table? I think the movie is playing since something happens when I rollover the mouse so it may be that.

Try making the top table bigger and see what happens.

Also you should make sure that the parameter regarding which movies you're using matches. So the value for movie in the param tag should be the same url as the src attribute in the embed tag.

Double check your table code. I noticed you started a new table right after your inital one JUST for the swf movie. I doubt this will have anything to do with it. But you never know.

I Hope this helps... somewhat.
