Problem is not directly about flash.

I can't get my Flash Image Gallery to work. I think it's a problem of the page not being able to find the files in the directory.

On my computer, the directory goes:

My comp --> fig -->settings.xml, splash.jpg, menu.xml, gallery.swf, index.html
\
school --> pic1.JPG, pic2.JPG..., pics.xml
\
thumbs --> pic1.JPG, pic2.JPG...

When I open fig --> index.html, it opens up gallery.swf, which is the gallery. And it works perfectly.

but when I upload the entire fig folder onto my website, everything goes nuts. The flash itself won't load, or the menu won't load, or the pics won't load.

Directory on my website is:

domain --> fig --> settings.xml, splash.jpg, menu.xml, gallery.swf, index.html
\
school --> pic1.JPG, pic2.JPG..., pics.xml
\
thumbs --> pic1.JPG, pic2.JPG

So the directories are all the same, but the result is different.

When you view a page trying to show the swf, (http://www.atpx.net/flashtest) the splash, menu, and pics won't load.

Sorry is this is all nonsense out of me, I don't even understand it myself, I was never good at managing directory trees. I have no idea how to get the flash to work, ack.

Any help needed and appreciated. Thanks.

ok so what I'm asking is how do I get a page that is trying to show the .swf, like the link i made above, actually show the menu and pics. Because I got the actual .swf to show the pic and menu, but when a page tries to show the .swf, it won't find the pics.

so www.atpx.net/fig/gallery.swf shows the pics, but

www.atpx.net/flashtest.html doesn't show the pics.

?? Why?! =(

Btw, the code I put in for the html page is

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="611" height="400" id="gallery" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="http://www.atpx.net/fig/gallery.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<embed src="http://www.atpx.net/fig/gallery.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="611" height="400" name="gallery" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>
