Hello all!

I am so desperate to figure out what the problem is here. I have a swf file that I want to put on my website. It is definitely on the server and i do NOT get the “movie not loaded” signal when i right click where the movie should be so I know that it has actually loaded.

However, when I load the swf file onto the server nothing shows up. The movie displays perfectly on my local machine, but nothing on the server. I am at a loss for what is going on.

I also have another little flash countdown timer on the same website, so I don’t think my mime types need to be changed.

If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it. Thanks so much. Take care.
