Very weird flash / wordpress problem

    Hello everyone,

    I just enabled mod rewrite / cleaner url’s on my wordpress page via the settings menu, however now that I have done so the flash rotator / banner at the top of my page has stopped working on the newly created mod rewritten pages?

    I tried to create a new page on the wordpress blog and it just says “Get the Flash Player to see this rotator.” so I don’t think it has happened to only old pages, but newly created pages / posts / mod rewritten url’s will experience the problem as well. On the main page of the site the rotator is working perfectly fine?

    So something has happened but I have absolutely no idea what ??

    Your help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

    here is the code for the flash rotator I am using if that is of any use, I am totally stuck here.

    <div id="container2">Get the Flash Player to see this rotator.</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var s1 = new SWFObject("imagerotator.swf","rotator","770","300","7");
s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
s1.addVariable("file","supra.xml");
s1.addVariable("width","770");
s1.addVariable("height","300");
s1.addVariable("shownavigation","false");
s1.addVariable("rotatetime","8");
s1.addVariable("shuffle","true");
s1.addVariable("showicons","false");
s1.write("container2");
</script>

    Okay I managed to fix it!!!

    I just moved all the items to a new /rotator/ directory and pointed each url in the code above to that. It was looking for an absolute reference for the .swf .xml and .js files above.
