Flash doesn"t display

Hi,

I've got an asp page that displays a flash file. It works correctly for IE
and firefox on one webserver. On my webserver (iis 5.1) it only works for
firefox and not IE. what happens is, where the flash should show up there is
an empty box with a white square in the top left corner that has a red
square, a green circle and a blue triangle in it. I believe that the problem
is probably a webserver setting.

Can anyone help with this problem?

Thanks.

Re: Flash doesn"t display

I don't think it is a webserver setting because IIS does not care about
what browser you use.

What is logged in the log file?
Is Flash installed on the client (IE)?

Re: Flash doesn"t display

Thanks for the response.

In the log file, a call on the page using firefox logs a successful GET call
on the swf (flash) file. A call on the page using IE doesn’t log a call on
the swf file.

I have flash enabled on the IE browser. I can see the flash file
successfully on other webservers but not on my webserver using IE. That’s why
I think its a server setting.

Re: Flash doesn"t display

If nothing is logged, IIS never gets the request. So IE probably never
sends a request for the flash file.
