flv appears as broken skin gfx

[zdvdla]

Hi,

I have encountered a very strange thing. I have built many pages that contain .flv files with no problems. Tonight however, all of a sudden, any page containing a .flv merely shows up in browsers as the chosen skin graphics broken up into many parts within the div, including the barber pole.
But no video at all
When I look at the source in FF, it appears exactly as the code does in DW.
I have been trying everything for hours and can't find the problem.
This only happens locally. When I post it on my site it displays perfectly....but not when I use DW to open it in a browser...

any ideas other than RI??

There's your problem.

DW creates a temporary version of the page in a specified location for the Browser to open. This is usually a Temporary folder somewhere on your machine.

This Temp folder may be missing some of the components for your page, in your case the flv file for the flash movie.

What address appears in your Browser when you open the page?
