If I were to rewrite my code in pure HTML (which it isn't, just translates for 
the browser) and do as you say, it would pop up almost immediately because it's 
all right here on a screaming fast Mac Pro.

It struck me at this point, after already trying LiveHTTPHeaders, which is 
pretty darn cool, that maybe the problem I'm running into is caused by not 
being able to get my swf files to load in my newly downloaded FireFox, 
Apparently, Flash doesn't come bundled (amazing). I tried downloading and 
installing it from Adobe, three times, and it doesn't want to install. It isn't 
trying to install like other plugins. So I went to install Charles and 
unfortunately it assumed I wanted to install it in FF not in Safari. So I'm 
back to square one. How do I get FF to cooperate?


Aahh, the dreaded Adobe Download Manager - it worked for me just now on FF 3.5.8, but broke before. I can't remember how I worked around that, but it was a grand PITA and a big PITY that Adobe introduced it, the old Flash download worked perfectly & seamlessly for me in all my browsers - if it ain't broke Adobe, don't break it, concentrate on the FP bugs ;)

You can search for "archived players" and download all of the FP 10 ones (157MB!) if you are completely stuck - install them for FF manually, not sure if that's the same for MacOS, sorry.
I can't find anywhere where it downloads the swf. I didn't find the words "NOT 
MODIFIED" anywhere. Pity I can't copy and paste then search the output :(
Thanks,
John
The NOT MODIFIED is just one possible status returned by the server:
For a successful request you would normally see:
"HTTP/1.1 200 OK"  Which means that your file was found and sent.

You can right click (in Windows) the "Captured" output in the Headers tab, select all and choose copy if you need it - you only need to look at the request and response for your actual swf files.
