Hello,

Follow the link below:

As you can see the flash movie is not displayed properly (its white blank above the text, but still when you right click on it you get the flash options!). I have check the path and linkage and everything is correct. Can anyone help me out please?


Cheers,
Liner986.

welcome page << %20 your spaces in your file paths.

What difference does changeing welcome page to e.g. welcome_page makes? Ive got another folder with %20 >> "side shades" and it works fine.

For further clarification:

Replace:

../Flash/welcome page/welcome_flash_Index.swf


With:

../Flash/welcome%20page/welcome_flash_Index.swf

I dont know about the differences, it depends on your server, but you should ALWAYS avoid spaces in dir names and file names

I done it with %20, but it didnt work. Then I change both the folder and linkage to welcome_flash but still its not working.

Why do you have "../Flash/" on a page that's the root of a url? "../" means one folder above, but there is no folder above that. Where exactly is your .swf?

Ok guys,

Fixed it. Finally! I just moved the flash file one folder below the index.html and updated its linkage/path again on the index page and everything worked out.

Thanks for you help.
