I am incredibly frustrated right now. I’m having trouble displaying my flash on my site. I’ve done many times, but now this once it wont work.
My site currently consists of two flash elements: A top banner, and a side menu. The top one is called “AFROTOPHEADER.swf” and the side one is called “AFROSIDEBAR2”
I have uploaded both movies into the same directory, they are right next to eachother. on the home.html page, I used the following code to implement them:
<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="800" HEIGHT="150" id="AFROTOPHEADER" ALIGN="">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="AFROTOPHEADER.swf"> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=transparent> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#0099FF> <EMBED src="http://afro-ninjacom.readyhosting.com/Page_Home/AFROTOPHEADER.swf" quality=high wmode=transparent bgcolor=#0099FF WIDTH="800" HEIGHT="150" NAME="AFROTOPHEADER" ALIGN=""
TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>

WIDTH="200" HEIGHT="450" id="AFROSIDEBAR2" ALIGN="">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="AFROSIDEBAR2.swf"> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=transparent> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#0066FF> <EMBED src="http://afro-ninjacom.readyhosting.com/Page_Home/AFROSIDEBAR2.swf" quality=high wmode=transparent bgcolor=#0066FF WIDTH="200" HEIGHT="450" NAME="AFROSIDEBAR2" ALIGN=""

</OBJECT>
The top banner shows up fine. The side bar does not. So then I checked the swf files themselves.
when I simply viewed “http://afro-ninjacom.readyhosting.com/Page_Home/AFROTOPHEADER.swf”
the swf file showed up fine. When viewing the other one I got nothing. So I uploaded some test swf files to see what results I got. Some of them showed up, some did not.
Does anyone have any idea what is causing this??
