Flash animation only loads on index page.

[korneld]

Hi,

I created my first Flash animation to be used on a new website I’m building using WordPress as the platform.

It works as it’s supposed to on the home page, but fails to load on any of the other pages. The page just keeps on loading without ever timing out. (This holds true for both IE and Firefox.) That’s strange, because in WordPress the same header is included in all the pages, and the Flash animation is included in the header. If it works on one page, it should work on all the rest, shouldn’t it?

This is the code I’m using:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="760" height="87" id="logo" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="logo.swf" />
<param name="loop" value="false" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#e6cf73" />
<embed src="logo.swf" loop="false" quality="high" bgcolor="#e6cf73" width="760" height="87" name="logo" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>

I appreciate any help you can offer me.

are your subsequent pages in a different directory than the index page was? that will cause a long attempt to load. if thats the case you have to prefix the flash filename with the path or maybe a "..\"
