Hiya guys,

I’ve followed Kirupa’s tutorial on making a Flash/PHP Hit Counter, which works fine on it’s own:  
[http://www.iconicproductions.co.uk/jornbjorn/counter/counter.swf](http://www.iconicproductions.co.uk/jornbjorn/counter/counter.swf)

However put it into an HTML page and the numbers all stay at 00000:  
[http://www.iconicproductions.co.uk/flash.htm](http://www.iconicproductions.co.uk/flash.htm)

I’ve directly linked the flash file by hyperlink to overcome this problem…but still no luck.

So where have I gone wrong?

Thanks in advance,
