Question

Setting up a New Site and Having Issues with Flash SWF's

Hello.  I just set up a new site definition, with a testiing server using MAMP Pro, and everything seems to be functioning properly, except that my swf's are not showing up when you publish to a browser from dreamweaver, instead you get the place holder message to upgrade to the newest version of flashplayer... besides the fact that my computers flash player is up to date.  At this point in time my two other websites swf components work just fine when I publish out of dreamweaver.

I'd also like to mention that the Live View works perfectly and is displayinig the swf's as they should be.

Thanks!

Without seeing the page in question we can only speculate, but it sounds as it all associated files have not been uploaded.  Look for a folder called Scripts and make sure that it is uploaded.   If you are using Safari there is an Activity Window (Window->Activity) which will show you if files are missing if you use that browser (a Mac user?).  There are probably some Firefox and Chrome extensions that do this as well.

I copied the associated scripts over to the site folder on the testing server and I'm getting the same results.  I'm sure this is something that is really simple.  Here is the code:<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
