Hey all,

I’ve run into a strange error and I was wondering if anyone had experience with this.

I’m working on a flash platforming game and I recently released a demo. I was having a problem with the getting the file to play correctly when I noticed an error:

The file plays differently depending on where the file is saved. For example:

[Platform Explorer (http://jrjellybeans.net/platformExplorer.swf](http://jrjellybeans.net/platformExplorer.swf)).  
This file runs fine.

[Platform Explorer (http://jrjellybeans.net/flashGames/platformExplorer.swf](http://jrjellybeans.net/flashGames/platformExplorer.swf)).  
This file opens up the level editor. Yet, I make no call to the level editor anywhere in this particular file.

The thing is that the files are EXACTLY the same. Just saved in different locations.

I was wondering if anyone could think of any reason why this is ocurring. It might actually be because of my hosting…

Thanks!
