I had some issues with the wrong slashes for directories when using Flash.

<tip type="Flash Slash">

When making Flash on a Mac and having the tool creating the HTML, make sure
the HTML has the proper slashes.

bad:
 <EMBED src="content\cool_stuff.swf" loop=false quality=high
bgcolor=#FFFFFF...

good:
 <EMBED src="content/cool_stuff.swf" loop=false quality=high
bgcolor=#FFFFFF...

When the Flash plug-in asks for the file, some web servers can't find it
(like Apache on Unix).

</tip>

Sorry I don't know the details about versions, etc...
