Preload bar not working in HTML site

[peebman2000]

Hello, i'm a newbie in flash and I need help on my preload bar I've created for a HTML website. I've created a preload bar to load my fade in and fade out images and it works in flash. The preload bar preload a percentage countdown in the test movie option. I selected Simulate Download and it works fine. But when I put in into my HTML site, it doesn't work like it does in flash when I simulate download. Does anyone know why and what I can do to get it to work on my HTML site like its shown in flash when I simulate download? FYI below is what I have on the HTML site for my .swf file. Thanks.

Looks like the URL is messed up on that. Just take out the full local URL link you have there and that should do it...this is the line that needs to be removed..."file:///E|/flashtest3withbar.swf"

It should be..."flashtest3withbar.swf"

After that file has been removed make sure the flash swf file is in the same directory as your html file.
