I downloaded a flash slidshow to use on a webiste. I tested it on my computer using xampp and it worked fine but when i uploaded all the files and went to the website, only the first image appears.

I have the following files in root directory:

images folder
.DS_Store
images.xml
slideshow_as2.fla
slideshow_as2.html
slideshow_as2.swf

The only change that i made was to the code in the html file so it would validate as xhtml strict.

original embed code was the following:
HTML:
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="[URL unfurl="true"]http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"[/URL] width="300" height="200" id="slideshow_as2" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="slideshow_as2.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" />
<embed src="slideshow_as2.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" width="300" height="200" name="slideshow_as2" align="right" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"[/URL] />
</object>

And i changed it to the following:
HTML:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="slideshow_as2.swf" width="300" height="200" id="slideshow_as2">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="slideshow_as2.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" />
</object>

I did try changing the embed code back to how it was but that didn't work either.

How can i fix this problem? Could the problem be with the host?

The website is being hosted by godaddy.com

Thank you for you help.
