Hey Adam. Thanks for your help. Question though. This page is in
the Views section in a folder called Events and that thtml file is in
there. This is what I have.
In the Flash file I have the code: dd.loadSound("/images/
Cleve_Bus_Connect.mp3", false);
In the thtml file I have:
<!--[if !IE]> -->
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="/images/player.swf" width="250" height="35">
<!-- <![endif]-->
<!--[if IE]>
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/
swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
width="250" height="35">
<param name="movie" value="/images/player.swf" />
<!--><!--dgx-->
<param name="loop" value="false" />
<param name="menu" value="false" />
I put all the files in an images folder in the Views>>Events folder
and am still getting the same results? Any ideas? Thanks
