Loading SWF files to internet

I upload my swf movie through an FTP program then i open the .html version of my movie and copy paste whats there to my .html editor. When I go the the website to see if the movie works, all I get is a blank box where the movie should be and the website never actually finishes loading. I thought that maybe the file was really big, but I went to a friends house ( he has DSL) and it did that same thing. I am not sure why the movie won’t show. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Kev
