Re: ScriptAlias or MIME -- WEB400

Probably already been answered, but you specify:

src="TheFlashFile.swf....

That means it's going to use the current directory in the
path.  And I'm betting that the page this is displayed with
is a cgi program with /cgi-bin or something in the URL. 

I always (well, 99% of the time) use qualified paths in
images, source, css, SSI, etc...
