    this is my first website.

    i am creating a basic website. I am using dreamweaver 8 and i used flash cs3 to create my .swf file.

    when i view the flash file in my browser locally the information bar pops up in IE asking if I want to allow blocked content. when i accept, the flash file displays.

    i uploaded the file to the host server and when i try to view it from IE there is a white box where the flash file should be playing. no information bar. i cannot get the file to display.

    here is the code:

    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" width="247" height="200">
    <param name="movie" value="images/fix.swf" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <embed src="images/fix.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="247" height="200"></embed>

    I tried viewing it on multiple computers but all display the same white box.

    Thanks for your help!

    i had placed the .swf file in the wrong location on the server. Moved it to images folder and it works!
