Simple Flash/Dreamweaver question... i know someone can help!

[pappageo]

hi, so i have my flash site all designed and ready to go but i am running into a problem when putting it into a page in dreamweaver. i used this tutorial ( http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/centered_popup.htm ) because i want my main page to be in a popup without toolbars and junk. my problem is when i put it into dreamweaver and test out the popup, the popup page comes up fine but the swf continues to load forever. I am confused because if i test out the main page by itself everything works fine. if anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated! thanks

If the SWF seems like it's "loading forever", it means that the location of the SWF is incorrect.

Make sure that your SWF file is linked correctly in the popup. For example, if you have:

index.html
popup.html
flash.swf

You would simply put "flash.swf" as it's location.

But, if flash.swf is in a folder called "flash", you need to put "flash/flash.swf" as the SWF's location.

I think your problem is that the popup page is located in another directory and you're linking the SWF wrong.

i dont think it is the location of the swf because i have all of my files in one folder. also when i test the page on its own it works fine...i mean, when not being opened in the popup, the page works fine. if that makes any sense. any other thoughts on what it could be?
