About configuring a web server for Flash
When your files are accessed from a web server, the server must properly identify them as Flash
content to display them. If the MIME type is missing or not properly delivered by the server, the
browser can show error messages or a blank window with a puzzle piece icon.
If your server is not properly configured, you (or your server's administrator) must add the Flash
SWF file MIME types to the server's configuration files and associate the following MIME types
with the SWF file extensions:
•
MIME type application/x-shockwave-flash has the .swf file extension.
•
MIME type application/futuresplash has the .spl file extension.
If you are administering a server, consult your server software documentation for instructions on
adding or configuring MIME types. If you are not administering a server, contact your Internet
service provider, webmaster, or server administrator to add the MIME type information.
If your site is on a Macintosh server, you must also set the following parameters: Action: Binary;
Type: SWFL; and Creator: SWF2.
