I have a little problem, Im making a site (in early stages), the file is located [here , as you can see the transitions work fine between pages in the file, which are dynamically loaded in (it is based off of a tutorial on this website). When I put it inside an html page[URL=http://level0studios.com/testlayout.htm]here](http://level0studios.com/weblayout.swf) , actually inside of a table on an html page (I tried it with a blank page and it didnt work anyway) the transitions freeze up…what could be the problem? thank you for your help in advance…

yes, they used to be just linked as “home.swf” and “webstudio.swf”, then it started to freeze up in just the standalone movie (it works perfectly fine on my computer) all the files are in the same main directory on my server, the odd part is that it used to work perfectly even on my website, then it started to freeze up, I tried it with just the movie and it froze up, then I changed it to how it is now and it worked, I’ll post the fla up a little later…

It doesent work again…I didnt even touch any files on the server since the last update…could it be a server problem?
