View Full Version : The white box

OK I've been trying to figure this out for 2 days. It can't be all that difficult, but I have a real meltdown.

I am adding ads to my vB. I have three. One animated gif and two swf files. The problem is the third swf ad displays a white box. I know its there because when I run the mouse over the box it tells me to click to use controls.

The first swf ad works great. I am missing something simple aren't I? FWIW no matter where I move that ad I get the same results.

Could you please point me in the right direction? White box. Frustrating

Sounds like you've got the path to the third SWF file set incorrectly, leaving it with nothing to display -- hence the white box.

Nope, that was the first thing I checked...

Well there is nothing native within vBulletin that would prevent Flash files from displaying, so as far as I can tell it's got to be something syntactically wrong.
