  1. I have FP 2003 and can't get a Flash SWF to work in the border. It works fine in the main body but doesn't load in the shared to border. I have tried adjusting to Flash 5,0,0,0 and still it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

    When using a shared border, all content must be between the body tags and
    any links need to be absolute URLs.

As you can see above the thread was started in 2003...So now it is 2017 and I have the same problem...A particular swf file manifests fine in the main body....but not in the shared borders...What am I doing wrong?...As instructed from the 2003 thread I indeed did insert the swf file code between the body tags....and the URL is absolute....BTW the shared borders have their own body tags...and the main body has it's own body tags...BTW my frontpage program is the 2000 version....Below I copy and paste the code from my left shared border...Any help would be very much appreciated...thanks -chip

Cancel my question...I went the extra mile and tried putting the body tag directly over the code and that solved the problem...
