35 New Member

I uploaded index.html, index.swf, the Scripts folder with 'AC_RunActiveCo ntent.js' in it to http://www.paulineng.co.uk, it takes a long time to load & once it has loaded and I right-click, it says movie not loaded.
Below is the html/flash file:

Hi, camphor.
I'm checking the code in your site and it's totally different from the one you posted here.
There are two movies but only one is written by the AC_RunActiveCon tent script (a very very poor adobe code, by the way). The other one is hard coded in html (object/embed). The one that is written by the scripts doesn't load and it's because the src parameter passed to the script is file:///C|/pauline ng/index which is obviously wrong. And the other movie works fine.

Change the src of the one that is not playing to a real source and use the SWFObject script to load the flash movies, that is an effing great script to run flash movies. You can find it here http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/
Read the instructions to see how it works and how to implement it.

Kind regards,
The_Nephilim

You're welcome.
If your background doens't show right, try matching the actual movie's background color with the one in the code of the script..
Also see if there's no movieclip overlapping the background of the movie...
I don't know, I've never had that issue, if the above doesn't solve it, post a link to the fla file and I'll check it.

Best regards,
The_Nephilim

Ohhh!! I totally missed that part, you missed the # before the hex value of the background.
You put:
<body bgcolor="EADBBF ">And it must be:
<body bgcolor="#EADBB F">That should solve it.
