Hi Dom,


A bit hard to determine just what your situation is. If you are loading 

movies into movie clips, be sure the movie clip instances are available in 

the current frame of the timeline. Be sure .swf's are named correctly, with 

special attention to case. Best to keep all names lower-case. Some servers 

won't equate upper and lower case, it needs to be consistent to work.
