I am using the FLV Plugin and for some reason the player is not showing on the page.

I have double checked the paths. The links appear correctly, but the player does not show up on the page:

code:

{exp:flvplugin playerpath="{site_url}mp3/player.swf" file="{mp3}" playernumber="{entry_id}" width="300" height="25"}<div id="player{entry_id}"></div>

The results:

[removed]
var flashvars = {
file: 'http://www.rstu.org/mp3/0948_David_Cunningham.mp3',
id: '121'
};
var params = {
wmode: 'opaque',
bgcolor: '#CCCCCC',
allowfullscreen: 'true',
allowscriptaccess: 'always'
};
swfobject.embedSWF('http://www.rstu.org/mp3/player.swf', 'player121','300','25', '9.0.0','expressInstall.swf', flashvars, params);
[removed]

However, the player does not show and I get the following error in Firebug:

swfobject is not defined

I would appreciate any help to get this resolved.

Thanks.

Looks like you have SWFObject 1.5 installed.

From the docs:

This plugin uses version 2 of the freely available javascript, SWFObject, for embedding Flash… …Note that if you have version 1.5 of SWFobject already installed it will not work with this version (4) of the plug-in.

He may have had the old version in his download too if I recall, so you should probably try SWFobject v2 and see if that helps.
