Hey everyone:

I’m in a bit of a bind here. My site performs drastically different when it is run in Test Movie (.swf) and when it is run through Internet Explorer.

It has 3 scenes in the following order and no externally loaded .swfs:

Scene 2 (Preloader)  
Scene 3 (Intro)  
Scene 1 (Content - I originally began with this one but later added the Preloader & Intro)

When I test the movie from Flash CS3 or run the exported .swf, it runs through with no problems. However, as soon as I export it and run it in Internet explorer through .html file, it will only load the preloader, which then transitions to the intro, and then I get a white screen for Scene 3. I cannot get the main content scene to play at all.

It seems the problem starts with the code to embed the .swf into the .html page. If I run the .swf through internet explorer, it is fine, but then it expands to fill the whole page. I think it wouldn’t be wise to run just the .swf online.

I would greatly appreciate any help in this manner!

Thank you,  
Adam
