Hi,

just working on a website. Trying to load a simple swf movie into my mc holder. Problem is:

When I preview the page on my desktop the external files loads. On the FTP server it doesn’t. Why?

I tried 2 scripts for an “onClipeEvent” on the empty mc holder but nothing workes.

onClipEvent (load) {
trace(targetMc);
loadMovie(“floorplans/301.swf”, “targetMc”);
}

Then I got recommended to use this script on an empty keyframe. It works but again, only offline.

targetMc.loadMovie(“floorplans/301.swf”);

I am not good enought in scripting to see what I do wrong. Can you help?

Thanks,
Dave

hmmm … only thing i can think of is …

  1. Is 301.swf a big file, are you waiting long enough for you to download the swf so that it can be loaded into targetMC

  2. On your server make sure 301.swf is in a folder called “floorplans” and outside this folder is the the swf that is calling for 301.swf

Thats the only things i can think of that could make it go wrong :stuck_out_tongue: Hope it helps. Good Luck.

hi, sure I thought about this. Really. It even has a preloader in it. Also the FTP have the same folder. So i still look for a solution.

Thanks

I just see that the problem only occurs when I preview the files with a browser. With just the .swf files it works. Could it be that I have to set the path different?

Thanks
