I'm having an extremely difficulty time getting the flowplayer to show up and the worst part is I have no idea what is wrong because I'm not getting any error messages!

I have an external javascript file:

C:/desktop/mysite/js/jq/plugins.js

calling $f() from:

C:/desktop/mysite/thirdparty/flowplayer/flowplayer.js

the swf files also live there...

I'm working on file/desktop (no localhost or webserver)

   $(video.id).flowplayer("thirdparty/flowplayer/flowplayer-3.1.15.swf", {
    clip:{
     ....
    },

    // min Flash version 
    version:[9,115],

     // older versions will see a custom message 
     onFail:function(){
       alert("Failed!");
     },

     onError:function(errCode,errMsg){
       alert(errCode+errMsg);
     }
   });

I don't know what path to use for the SWFs to get them to load, is the path relative to the javascript (plugins.js) that calls $f() or is it relative to the path of the flowplayer.js ??

bangs head on wall
