FLASH & HTML Frames

programming flash

Hi,

I’ve got a site that consists of a frameset of 4 frames. Within the top frame is the .swf file used for navigation purposes where buttons within the .swf target to the mainFrame within the frameset.

However for some reason the .swf will not ‘load’ properly. I am 99.9% certain that its not the flash file or a design issue as when the particular frame/page containg the .swf is loaded within the browser on its own (i.e. not as part of the frameset) it works no probs??

this only happens when using Internet Explorer on Windows XP? but when using Netscape, again no probs? my initial explanation is that its down to me having XP but i don’t know.

the best way to describe whats happening is when the frameset loads the preloader in scene1 works fine but then on scene2 initialising it sounds like ‘links’ are being continuously ‘clicked’??

for those who have XP, THE URL is http://www.rhyslee.fsnet.co.uk/80windows/

HELP ME , PLEASE!!!

Cheers,Ben

Yes Kirupa’s pages always show up fine (except for the AS Tricks pop-up windows) because Kirupa knows that you should always define the background color! :slight_smile:
