I'm quite new to Dreamweaver and have access to Dreamweaver 2004 MX. I inserted
some Flash buttons on to a page I was designing. I simply used
Insert-Media-Flash button to insert one of the standard issue Flash buttons
(Translucent Tab).
I then created a few layers and then set the "Show / Hide Layers Action" on
the "On click" event to hide and show the layers depending on what button you
clicked. It didn't work. However, when (as an experiment) I set the action and
event on a couple of jpeg images on the page, it worked perfectly.
Am I missing something obvious?
The code generated for one of the buttons (It's the Prices button that
displays the Contact layer) is
<object classid="clsid
