I think your issues lay with your serverHost … or spelling…or ? ---

thank you friends, it seems the problem was caused by storing the swf and html file in seperate folders. Don’t know why, but when i put them into the same folder and resaved the html doc, it worked fine. Didn’t know that, but at least i wont make the same mistake again. Is it possible to have my banner as a swf file in the html [using frames] and then having my menu as a swf as well? I mean, it is possible to have more than one flash file in a html document? If not…i’m stuck using regular html with just a flash banner [header] Please don’t say that is what i’m doomed to 🔗 ---

You can designate swf’s to play in tables … which are easier to manage than frames anyway (size them right to fit) and you can call as many as you can fit in … just make sure that if they aren’t in the same folder that you indicate the correct path to them in the address … relative paths are assumed unless specified otherwise …But what about your main page ? … do you even have an index.html ??? That is the first place the browser will look when going for “[yoursite.com](http://yoursite.com)” without any “/files” on the end ---

1000 x 700 :!: :!: :!: … that’s scarry …just my opinion:: if you’re going to make your view larger than the normal screen probably should confine to only scrolling in _one_ direction…ie: only one of your dimensions to exceed screen size…preferably to scroll up\<-\>down rather than L\<-\>R …just my thoughts
