could it be an issue with player version?

I'm thinking it must be a player version thing, yeah, except I don't know how to work that out. I pulled a Flash embed script from someone's tutorial on working around Dreamweaver's Flash embed crappiness, but it could be outdated... maybe this line is causing the trouble? it's looking for Flash player 7, which I thought would be a good safe bet:
codebase="http://download.macrom...
So it embeds successfully, but I don't know what half of the script means. I can post the whole script if that'd help...

let me try that again:
codebase="http://download.macrom...
cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7...
- blastofv0
ends with:
/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"

i think codebase attribute is just the lowest player version that won't prompt an update in IE

yeah, it appears to have something to do with player version, had 9,0,28,0 on my laptop and it was working, updated to 9,0,115,0 and it stopped working.
- very interesting, and confusing... I'll try tinkering with that. thanks!blastofv
