HOW CAN I GET MY .SWF FILES TO PLAY ON MY PAGE? ALL IT WILL ACCEPT ARE JPEG GIF (THE USUALS). ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.<br>

 
MAybe you do not have flash 3 and director 7 player installed
 
Apollo, this may be a late resonse, but ...<br>

If you are creating SWF's in the first place, then you must have either a working copy of the program or the demo. In either case when you installed Flash, you should have also installed a utility called "Aftershock". this makes creating web pages with SWF's a breeze. if you don't have it installed, you still can get it from <br>

If you have MS FrontPage98 or Netscape Composer, these will help you to insert .SWF file as Plug- ins<br>

Ahhhh! The land of WYSIWYG! No! Take the time to learn how to code it properly, it will pay off - I promise!<br>
<br>
Maybe I read this original statement differently - it seems you are having problems embedding the flash movie on your page? Or just having problems seeing it? If it is the former, have you tries using the AfterShock utility that comes with flash? You need to build an Object and Embed tag. ps embed should be inside of the object liek this<br>
&lt;OBJECT&gt;<br>
BLAH BLAH BLAH<br>
&lt;EMBED src=""&gt;&lt;/EMBED&gt;<br>
&lt;/OBJECT&gt;<br>
IE will therefore read the object and ignore the embed within it, and Netscape will blow off the object altogether and just do the embed
