as far as i know the path: “[FONT=Courier New][COLOR=#dd0000][http://gateway.radixlearning.com/radixmicrosite/ss-address.flv](http://gateway.radixlearning.com/radixmicrosite/ss-address.flv)” [FONT=Verdana][COLOR=black]is not accessable from my computer…[/COLOR][/FONT][/COLOR][/FONT]  
[COLOR=black][/COLOR]  
[COLOR=black]another thing flash cannot be installed on a server, the user just has to be able to play flash media and that is all.[/COLOR]

Then what could be the problem.  
I am able to access,  
[http://gateway.radixlearning.com/radixmicrosite/flvdetect.swf](http://gateway.radixlearning.com/radixmicrosite/flvdetect.swf)  
[http://gateway.radixlearning.com/radixmicrosite/yogyata\_animation.swf](http://gateway.radixlearning.com/radixmicrosite/yogyata_animation.swf)

Why not  
[[COLOR=#810081]http://gateway.radixlearning.com/radixmicrosite/ss-address.flv[/COLOR]](http://gateway.radixlearning.com/radixmicrosite/ss-address.flv)  
in the same location.  
Any clue.  
You say that flash player is not required in the server.  
I use windows 2000 server.  
I use IIS.

Any idea what the problem could be.

Thanks in Advance  
Sivanathan

</div>

when i tried accessing [http://gateway.radixlearning.com/radixmicrosite/flvdetect.swf](http://gateway.radixlearning.com/radixmicrosite/flvdetect.swf) the falsh file loaded but, there was a text box that said “connection error” and another with “0” if that helps at all. why i don’t have access to the third [[FONT=Courier New][COLOR=#0000ff][URL=“http://gateway.radixlearning.com/rad…ss-address.flv”]http://gateway.radixlearning.com/rad…ss-address.flv[/COLOR][/FONT]](http://gateway.radixlearning.com/rad...ss-address.flv)  
is beyond me.
