I tried to load my html page using Navigator at
http://www.fwhilton.com/flash/home.html
The html page loaded, but my SWF file didn't.
What's wrong?
Is SWF files made with KM cross-platform (browsers)??
Thanks

I tried getting to your site w/Navigator and I also had trouble. However, when I typed in the URL for the .SWF file it worked -- http://www.fwhilton.com/flash/index.swf. My guess is there is some kind of error in the Javascript used to load the .SWF file.
Your site looks really nice, but I have a problem with it: with my screen settings (640 X 480), Flash scales the page down so that it all fits vertically. It doesn't scroll. My viewing area with Navigator is about 285 pixels verically. If you either made the pages scroll (not scale) or made them shorter, your pages would look nicer for users like me.
Also, it might be a little easier to navigate if you added pops or clicks when you move the mouse over the buttons.
You are definately on the right track!

I see that you are using FrontPage. Johnie has made many comments on how FrontPage messes up the code. I suggest you generate the hmtl from KoolMoves and upload it unchanged. See if that works in Netscape.

I have made those changes to the code.
Could a Navigator user check out my web interface at...

I need to reinstall Netscape or its flash player so I can't test your page but I do see that the javascript is different. The FrontPage version had <P> .. </P> inside the javascript. In the KoolMoves help under FrontPage in the Index section is a link to using FrontPage with Flash. The link came of course from Johnie.
