Embedded .SWF will not play. showing up blank

    First time I decided to play with a flash movie using the FLVComponent in Macromedia Flash 8 Pro...
    It is very simple to first encode the .wmv to .flv and then setup the component to target the .flv ... I tested and exported the flash and it works great. But once I upload the .html and .swf files with the correct code, IT WILL NOT PLAY. Instead I get the blank flash spaceholder. The .html plays fine locally...

    If I create a generic .SWF file (Not using the FLVComponent), it will work fine!

    I am also using the code that macromedia had given me...


    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
    <title>test</title>
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="#ffffff">
    <!--url's used in the movie-->
    <!--text used in the movie-->
    <!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->
    <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/sw flash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="400" height="220" id="test" align="middle">
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <param name="movie" value="test.swf" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
    <embed src="test.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="400" height="220" name="test" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
    </object>
    </body>
    </html>

    Hi there...

    Try exporting your flash object in a different flash actionscript.

    I don't know too much about Flash, but whenever i've developed an object to embed in a site, i have always had the universal problem of the incompatibility of Actionscripts.

    Hope this helps,
    Nick
