some people are unable to see flash file
Howdy, I've got a flash file on SP 07, some users can see it some can't. It isn't a permissions/admin issue because users can see the html file in the web part above where the flash file should be. It also isn't a flash player version issue, everyone's got FP 10 and swf is published at 8. We've tried the flash file as both an embed in content editor using source code and using the other web part, whose name I forget. Both of these methods work for me but a few coworkers can see in neither. When I exit edit mode, I can see the flash file AND many of my coworkers can see the flash file, but again some cannot. Thanks for any help!!! :) b

It seems like a permission issue.Where you placed your flash file Place swf file in root as mentioned in the article http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/Roji.Joy/2836/?ArticleID=9f682d80-f9d4-46db-962a-261b261cd663 Destin - MCTS SharePoint Application Development 2010,2007

Hi Destin, Thank you for your kind answer. If I could ask a few questions. 1. By flash file, do you mean my .fla (which I have not uploaded) file or the published html file? Can you clarify what kind of file you first mention? 2. Where exactly is the root? At this point I simply have the html and swf in the Pages folder of the site content. 3. In the website you link, you mention copying the 'code below', but I can't copy the pic and is it all there? Any way you could point me toward copyable code? Much Thanks for your help! b
