If it’s white then that means your linkage is wrong, check your file links and see if they’re correct.

</div>

about posting the code into dreamweaver

in your BODY (never the head)

only post from …

**\<!-- URL’s used in the movie–\>**

to

**\</OBJECT\>**

EXAMPLE

```php
<!-- URL's used in the movie-->
<!-- text used in the movie-->
<!--Press a button to view text ----><OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
 codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
 WIDTH="400" HEIGHT="200" id="finished" ALIGN="">
 <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="finished.swf"> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF> <EMBED src="finished.swf" quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="400" HEIGHT="200" NAME="finished" ALIGN=""
 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>

```

thats all you need the rest is \*\*\*\*, that just sorts the page out if you only want to upload that without changing any HTML.:thumb:

</div>

you need to highlight all the frame (so EVERY thing goes black in your timeline)

then move them back 2 spaces, now make 4 new layers and add what you just did.

each layer in the preload you get made at to one of your 4 new layers in you main movie

PS if you have buttons that say goto and play “50” you going to need to change them to 52 now.

if you need more help just post i am always here:beam:
