I have inserted a flash movie .flv to play in the slide and it works fine on the local host but it doesn't play when I moved my presentation on to the web server, does anyone know why?
It published all slides and all content perfectly.
Sounds like an issue with MIME types. You might check with your host to be sure the server is configured to recognize the type FLV. Here's how this is done on a Windows server.
If the host doesn't know how to serve up the file it will either refuse or serve it up in the wrong format (either one will result in the symptoms you're seeing). This is where I'd start looking.

Thanks! Haven't tested yet but I'm pretty sure this is the problem.
