:URGENT: Random Picture Generator

programming flash
1

I creaed a random picture generator with a tutorial from kirupa.com
(http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/loadingrandombackground.htm)

Now I created that same movie exactly the way he said. But something is going wrong.

I use Dreamweaver, and I have a few flash files on my index.htm. In dreamweaver, when I click the “play” and “stop” buttons in dreamweaver’s properties inspector, the movie works great. But when I F12 it, or publish to web, all I get is a blank screen.

The only things I did different than the tutorial is I changed the pictures used, and I changed the movie size to fit my pictures/open box in dreamweaver.

You can go to the first one (www.onlymansei.com/test) and see the open box on the bottom right corner. That is where that flash movie should be going.

Now you can go to that open white space, and check, a flash movie is playing, but nothing is going on.

Thanks for all youe help.
Sincerely,
Will Stein

if you are just getting a blank white screen, then your swf is not loading… check your path in the HTML, and make sure the swf is there where it is supposed to be…

your html is looking for: images/randomflash/randomflash/tutorial/swf/random.swf , but your swf is located @ : http://www.onlymansei.com/test/images/randomflash/randomflash/tutorial//swf/random.swf

so… try hard coding the path to the latter address, and it should work…
