Problem loading external sounds

I have a movie which loads external sound files into an array and then plays them at specific points in the movie. Kglad on this forum helped me get the scripting right.

Now I have just one problem: the movie plays fine and loads the sounds when I try it in the Flash authoring environment, or when I play the swf in the Flash Player.

But when I place the SWF in an HTML document (using DreamWeaver). it plays with no sound. The mp3 files are all in the "sounds" directory, which is inside the "flash" directory, where the swf is located.

This happens when I try it on my hard drive as well as when it's over the internet. What can the problem be?

Way to much code to read. But are the sounds being addressed by a path from the html page? Not the swf that is calling them.

All paths are relative to the html page. Even if you load a swf into a swf into a swf.
