I have had an issue working on a website, where flash will not show up when the user is on the secure (HTTPS) side of the site. I found a solution, however, not by searching for it, just by trying different things, and it seems to work. All of the http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0 needs to be changed to https://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0, and all of the movie values and source values need to be directed to the absolute URL as in http://www.yourdomain.com/yourflashfile.swf, rather than a relative link such as yourflash.swf.
This works for all https situations in both IE7 and Firefox, and will avoid the”Big White Square” syndrome meaning Movie Not Loaded.

Sorry, but that didn’t work for me. Works fine in IE, just not FF. :’(
Sorry Bryan,
I tested extensively in FF as well as IE and it does work for my applications the way I outlined it.
Send me a link to your page and I will take a look at it and see whats going on.
