Flash- works locally but not on server

[andyshep]

hi all,

ive created a slideshow in flash that works perfectly locally
but when i uploaded it the images do not show.

i have a forward (loadButton) and back (unloadButton)

heres the script in the main timeline

var photo = 0;
checkStatus();
function loadSWF() {
photo++;
holder.loadMovie("art" + photo + ".jpg");

checkStatus ();
}
function unloadSWF() {
photo--;
holder.loadMovie("art" + photo + ".jpg");
checkStatus ();
}
function checkStatus(){
if(photo <= 1){_root.unloadButton._visible=false}
else {_root.unloadButton._visible=true}
if(photo == 48) {_root.loadButton._visible=false}
else {_root.loadButton._visible=true}
}


the images are loaded into a holder movie clip..

ive put the images in the same folder as the .swf file so it should work

any ideas?

i had to place the .htm page in the same folder as the .swf file.

i reconstructed a flash movie form your code, and like u said it works fine local, but when u upload it doesnt working.

upload pictures to server, and set absolute loadmovie path to pics, like this:

holder.loadMovie("http://www.yourhost.com/picsdir/art"+photo+".jpg");

and test your flash local. it doesnt work well again. i think its all about preloading pics into the movie (holder).

the button should have this code on them
(unloadbutton)
on (release) { unloadSWF() }
(loadbutton)
on (release) { loadSWF() }

the flash worked fine once i put the htm file with the flash in
the same folder as the .fla file and the images.
