Hi Johnny, So we've ruled out the server (other Flash movies work fine), and we've ruled out the embed/object tags. We've ruled out the browser too, since it fails on both IE and Firefox.
Just out of curiosity, if you right-click the area of the swf as the browser tries to load it, does it say "Movie Not Loaded"? If so, this would lead me to again suspect the mime types or the object/embed tags, but a corrupted swf could cause this as well. Anyway, the next thing I'd do is start removing components or blocks of ActionScript and see what will allow the movie to go ahead and load. When you take something out and suddenly the movie will play, you've found your culprit! Have you tried playing the swf in the standalone player? Good luck!! -tom -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Johnny Zen Sent: Saturday, May 06, 2006 8:16 PM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] recent issues/bugs? help needed Hi Tom Thanks for the help. Yes, I already tried those things you mentioned. Just to recap what i've done. Created another webpage using dreamweaver and added the flash movie. - No joy there. Checked object tags in webpage. - there is nothing wrong there. All other flash movies work. they are published as flash 6. Tried IE and firefox browsers. - no joy there Data services. The movie uses flashcomm, but if there is a problem with this, I have written error codes to tell me the problem (no connection to server etc) Preloader I use a preloader, so preloader should start before any other problems with data services are considered. Object tag used. //////////////////////////// <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.ca b#version=7,0,19,0" width="800" height="600"> <param name="movie" value="movie1.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="high" /> <embed src="movie1.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"; type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="800" height="600"></embed> </object> MIME Checked server, and this looks fine. Any other ideas?
