are you sure you’re uploading BOTH the swf and the html? If so, are you sure that they are both in the same directory?

It looks to me from your html source code that the navigbar.swf and all the references in your javascript are to html docs that are one directory above the one where this doc (essentials.htm) lives.I think that’s why it can’t find them from the jump menu and why it won’t load the .swf.\r good luck

are you saving it as .fla or .swf? If its .fla…you need to open up your flash movie…then go to File\>Export Movie\>name it whatever you want…and make sure its extension is .swf…then try that on the page…it might work…try it out and tell us what you come up with.
