Why isn't my .swf file showing up on my website?

Question

I just created my first flash design and put the HTML into my page. I am using Publisher. I also put the.swf file into the index file folder where all my files for the site go, and also another folder where I keep the rest of my site files. Can anyone help me in what I am doing wrong?

Nothing is showing up just a white blank on a black background. If I right click on the white blank, all I get if a link to the Flash site.

Answer 1

well its looking for a file on c: drive. not on your website

is this live or you testing it on your computer?

make sure that the "index" file you are using is saved to teh same folder as your swf or one folder above it (i dont know whaty our file sturcutre is
right now, your "src" for your swf is going through multiple directories to get to it.

Answer 2

What does it show up as? Does the embed tag show up as text for some reason, or is there simply no flash image? Does it work fine if you directly go to the URL for the .swf rather than the html?

Answer 3

Can you please copy the contents of your 'index.html' file and paste it here? (or at least the file that points to the .swf file?). The file can be named anything, but it's usually index.html or default.html
(htm and html are the same).

You'll have to paste the code. to do that, open notepad (or any other text file editor), select to open the html file, and copy/paste the complete file here. if the file doesnt appear, make sure to select "all files" under "file types" (instead of .txt).

maybe the flash plugin is not installed in your system or not set for your internet browser
