I have created a flash file that I got to work in iWeb, but the problem is that it ask for my username and password for idisk when other people try to access it.

How do I get rid of this?

I embedded the file using these instructions

http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWeb_Movies.html

This is the link to the trouble page:

Please help

Looks like you're loading it in a frame, right?

If so, I noticed this path:

src=".//Harpers_Room%28Flash%29_files/widget1_markup.html"

See the .// on the left? If the html file is one directory up, that should be "../" or if one directory down, "./" or leave off - get the idea? Map out your actual directory tree and set those relative paths properly. The web server can then find the files properly.

Note: Save and include the Flash files at or within your document root, always. The only files for a web site that should be above the document root should be server side scripts proprietary to that server. Otherwise, not only common permission/ownership issues to resolve but moving a site to a new server is for more complicated.
