No Flash in Firefox
Hello, if you go to http://www.tombraiders.net/katie/wendy/index.html

User: letme
Pass: in

You'll notice the flash doesn't show up in Firefox, but it works in IE.

Does anyone know why it's not working and how to fix it?

Thanks!

As kravvitz pointed out you link to two different swf-files

Code:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
                                   codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,24"
                                   width="780" height="615">
                            <param name="movie" value="flash/main_v3.3.swf" /> 
                            <param name="quality" value="high" />                                                    
                            <param name="menu" value="false" />
                            <!--[if !IE]> <-->
                            <object data="flash/main_v8.swf"
                                    width="780" height="615" type="application/x-shockwave-flash">
                             <param name="quality" value="high" />                                                     
                             <param name="menu" value="false" />

                             <param name="pluginurl" value="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
                               FAIL (the browser should render some flash content, not this).
                            </object>
                            <!--> <![endif]-->
                           </object>


The last one ,flash/main_v8.swf, doesn't resolve when one try to load it. main_v3.3.swf loads fine in firefox if you go to it directly.

If IE, it's using:
flash/main_v3.3.swf

if not IE, it's using:
flash/main_v8.swf"

But main_v8.swf isn't found

which is why nothing shows up... if you go to:
http://www.tombraiders.net/katie/wendy/flash/main_v3.3.swf
in firefox, it works... so change the 2nd filename to the one that works.
