The header is flash with an external xml file to load images. It is placed in
DW with all flash, images and xml file in the /flash folder.
http://hansonrunsvold.com/new/

Notice no images are loading.

When I exported it directly from Flash it worked. At least until I uploaded it.

I think there must be something simple I am overlooking. How can I get this to
work?

Sounds like file housekeeping issues such as paths and file name and file
existence.

1. Is DW creating the OBJECT and EMBED tags and are they compatible with the
version of your Flash movie?
2. Are the path relationships the same? That is are any path relationships
inside the Flash movie the same as the html containing the OBJECT and EMBED tag
loading the Flash movie.
3.Do you have a server where capitalization of file names matters and even if
you do not, do all the file names in Flash Movie have matching capitalization.

I have just tested this in explorer - it works fine, so is there a method to get this work in safari 2.0.4?
