    Default FLV video not playing

    I used dreamweaver to add a FLV video to a page on one of my websites. In a local preview of the page the video plays just fine. I uploaded the video to my web server in the appropriate location, and already have the AC_RunActiveContent.js in place on the web server in use for other videos.

    HOWEVER, when you view the live page the video won't play. I've checked everything 20 times, and I am sure that I'm missing something simple, and need another set of un-weary eyes.

    Here's the url to the live page:

    www.damartravel.com/cruises/cunard.html

    Help!! Thanks in Advance.

    pretty sure this may be a problem
    Code:
        <param name="FlashVars" value="&MM_ComponentVersion=1&skinName=Corona_Skin_3&streamName=../flash/cunard&autoPlay=false&autoRewind=false" />
    I know that the value of a flash variable cannot start with a number... Not sure about symbols... but it would also help if you defined the variable name... like this:
    Code:
        <param name="FlashVars" value="flashvariable=&MM_ComponentVersion=1&skinName=Corona_Skin_3&streamName=../flash/cunard&autoPlay=false&autoRewind=false" />
    though I'm not a flash professional... other wise it looks fine to me...
    hopes this helps...

    When I try to navigate to:

    Code:
    http://www.damartravel.com/cruises/FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf
    I get a:

    ERROR - Page not found.

    If the player was there, I should get something.
