So I have this animated mask of a rectangle moving over text to show it up.
Now the mask works fine in the flash timeline, but it doesn't show at all in the swf. Help me guys.

As you can see, the mask works fine.

But here in the swf, in the same frame, nothing appears.

A screenshot of your layers and what are you trying to do would be great.

If you select the word/shape/object and do ctrl+enter, this problem arises. Click somewhere outside to deselect your object and then export.

Thank you Scarecrow!
Ctrl+B broke apart my text, which I believe resolved the issue.
