thanks for any responses in advance..

i have uploaded my .swf, .flv, .fla to the server.. my video is playing fine.. but my controls for play and mute are not visible on myspace.. firefox pulled up the .swf with the controls.. but i cant get it to work on myspace

here is the myspace link... the .swf is at the top

here is the actual .swf link

any ideas on why this isn't coming thru?? i know my dimensions are not set to fit the player on myspace.. i fitted the video till i can figure this out...

thanks

Code:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" height="240" width="320" data="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/5/16/1083056/coolerflash.swf?file=http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/5/16/1083056/coolerflash1.flv">[/URL]
  <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never" />
  <param name="allowNetworking" value="internal" />
  <param name="movie" value="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/5/16/1083056/coolerflash.swf?file=http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/5/16/1083056/coolerflash1.flv"[/URL] />
  <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
</object>

i read something about myspace setting the scripct access to never.. does this have something to do with it? when i put the movie up thru photobucket it works fine with the controls using this code

Code:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" height="240" width="320" data="[URL unfurl="true"]http://vid110.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid110.photobucket.com/albums/n105/fodown/coolerflash1.flv">[/URL]
  <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never" />
  <param name="allowNetworking" value="internal" />
  <param name="movie" value="[URL unfurl="true"]http://vid110.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid110.photobucket.com/albums/n105/fodown/coolerflash1.flv"[/URL] />
  <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
</object>
 
I suggest copying the code you are using with photobucket and replacing the source with your flash document. I had the same problem and it displayed correctly when I did it that way.
