Hello Everyone,

I have designed an entire site in Flash and put the opening movie into a centred table in Dreamweaver but an annoying message appears when I hoover over a button. “GO TO [FLASH.COM](http://FLASH.COM) FOR THE PLUG-IN.” I think it is caused by the generic code that Dreamweaver writes to redirect people if they don’t have the plug-in but since I obviously do have the plug-in (Flash 7 player) since I created the site, why is it displaying this message and how can I get rid of it?

I deleted the relevant code in the HTML (i.e. the link to Macromedia) and it seems to have worked but what is this message and why was I getting it in both Safari and Firefox. (IE for Mac does not give it of course but that’s not surprising.)

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
