Hi I'm trying a bog standard file upload to my remote web server, the swf is in
the same domain as the images directory and the PHP file. It's exactly as laid

I'v made a flash site that has components in different frames that play a .flv
music file and a button to cycle through the frames. It works perfectly on my
hardrive but when I load it to the web it wont play the music.

Is there a way to avoid this because many users are missing the second click
and wondering why nothing is happening.

an swf?
I am thinking of the properties which can be edited and displayed in the
Windows directory listing.
