[club13]

Ive created my website it works
in netscape that is, however when I use explorer
it trys to download a swf file instead
of playing it. could someone tell me why that is.

heres my website address

http://www.blockmedia.com
after the preloader click on portfolio
and then the page will download that is if your using
explorer

i dont answer back with a thank you dont get annoyed its just im haveing problems with my post.

explorer

I was thinking the problem might be caused
not only by my stupidity but because I
put all my swf files
in one directory.

I see what you mean. At work I'm using IE5 and when you click on portfolio it tries to download the SWF, as you said.

What code have you put on that button?

yup...something wrong with your button, cuz when i clicked it...the address bar changed to index2.swf..means on the button u have some thing like:

on(release)
{
getURL("index2.swf")
}


i *think*

I checked your SWF in my temp folder and I think the problem is that you used this on your portfolio button:

on (press){
    getURL("http://www.blockmedia.com/index2.swf", "");
}

The code should actually be exactly what mustafapracha suggested in his post above. You don't need to specify the server because if the files are all in the same place they'll be found.

You should publish both the html and swf files from flash and upload both of them, then on the buttons instead of getURL("index2.swf"); as mustafapracha suggested (I think he's right with that ) you should use

on (release) {
getURL("index2.html");
}

where index2.html is the html page that has index2.swf embeded in it.

I'm using IE6 and get the download popup.

Just for info
