What do you get in the place of the flash movie? A broken plugin icon?

They must have stopped supporting it. I know there was a Flash 5 player for netscape 4.7. Is your movie mx or higher?

Hi

thanks for the replies..well im using Flash latest version..mx2004 or later..thats what my designer tell me..IE has Flsh 7 ..NS has 5(rightclicking on the movie)

the one giving me this issue is in an INCLUDE file that is used in a page...the embed code call a MAIN.SWF and this MAIN calls 10 different swf files.

loadMovieNum(movieprefix+(newvar)+".swf", 1);
movieprefix - URL
newvar - random number 1-9

What appears is just the background color..IE works fine
