.flv doesn't display in browers

Question

Problem: progressive FLV doesn't display in browsers
This is what I did: 1) inserted flash video (about 5 MB and
encoded in Flash Video dEncoder CS3) into a DW page. 2)Saved and
checked that it plays correctly in DW preview. 3) uploaded page,.
FLV and required FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf to server. 4) Checked
with server; they allow progressive FLVs. 5) From Adobe.com I
downloaded and replaced FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf in my local
folder in case cross-scripting vulnerability=the culprit.
6)uploaded new FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf to server. Tried it at
root level and in folder analogous to local file. 7)Cleared
browsers' caches, histories. Refreshed page. 8) did all of this on
Mac OS10.4 and Windows XP (except #5 because Adobe site has 404
error on cross-scripting vulnerability link for Macs . Have
notified Adobe about 404 three times.)

<sigh>
Your page throws a javascript error when it loads - line 155.
Line 155 is
this -
AC_FL_RunContent(
'codebase','
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0','widt h','360','height','240','id','FLVPlayer','src','FLVPlayer_Progressive','flashvars','&MM_Co mponentVersion=1&skinName=Clear_Skin_1&streamName=../../../media/motionartists/dove-mnem&a utoPlay=false&autoRewind=false','quality','high','scale','noscale','name','FLVPlayer','sal ign','lt','pluginspage','http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Vers ion=ShockwaveFlash','movie','FLVPlayer_Progressive'
); //end AC code
That function is in the script mentioned here -
<script src="../../../Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
When I browse here -
http://www.digitalartsclub.jandove.com/Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js,
I get
file not found. You do the math....
