Safari can just die for all I care!

For Mac and Safari Users. If you can help me it would be a merry xmas. If the sob story doesn’t interest you please skip to THE SUMMED UP ISSUE below.

I made a virtual store tour for a client. The tour was of one of their main outlets. I made it put it in a sample html file for display purposes and the job was done. Cheap and quick was what they wanted and I took very little time in doing it and was hoping to leave it at that.

Suddenly last week I get a call last week. The client says “it’s not working , can you see whats wrong with it.”

I immediatly began testing it out on various browsers.

I have a mac laptop with safari and tested it out and it didn’t work. It would load the top bar and bottom bar, but it would not load the .swf in safari.

I right clicked on the area where it should be and I didn’t get the options that usually come about in regards to flahs player. There was for all intents and purposes no flash .swf being “embedded” into the shtml document my client had inserted into. Note that it was loaded fine in both PC and MAC internet explorer.

I then started randomly doing things after hours of testing and stumbled on somthing that might be a big Lead to the solution!!! I clicked on the text resizing tool in safari which resizes fonts to be easier to read. As soon as I clicked it my movie started to play. If I refreshed the page it would not load again until I hit the text resizing tool.

two links are shown below. One is the source file, the other the actual webspage.

occasionally seems to load, but when i hit refresh it begins to load blank.

THE SUMMED UP ISSUE
This webpage doesn’t load my swf properly in Safari. Can anyone tell me why. When you click the front resize tool it starts to load and play.

SOURCE (not the file structure is as it is because of the way their server is layed out. The shtml document and the swf/fla are in www> new_canada> html> ) Filesize 5 megs.
