To Display SWF file or Flash file in Web Page Composer (WPC)

Hi,
I am goning to add & display 'swf file or flash file' in <b>Web Page Composer</b>.
But it is not allowing me to do so.I tried by three ways
1} to upload this file directly from local machine & to add in WPC
2}By using linklist option
3}By creating KM Document iview;which contain swf file.& then adding that iview in wpc.
but at last it is not displaying though allowing to add it in WPC.

Vishal -
First... we are all new to WPC!
Second, no I don't think you need to create a new container. I think that you just need to add the swf type as an allowed type for the container.
So...
Figure out which container you are trying to add the flash file to (as you mentioned, A1, A2, etc).
Navigate to:
Sys Admin --> Sys Config --> Knowledge Mgt --> Content Mgt --> WPC --> Containers.
Edit the container you want to use.
There will be a box named Allowed Mime Types.
In here, select the "swf" mime type (make sure the check box is checked). Then Save.
At my company, we had the WPC ramp up from SP12, and are now on SP13.
I'm not sure what you get if the first time you had WPC is SP13, but for us I see two default A1 (and A2...B1..C4...etc) containers -- one that has "default" in the name and one that has "def" in the name. From what I see, SP13 WPC uses the one with "def" in the name, not "default". So, make sure you modify the one with "def" in the name.
After you make this change, you should see "swf" in the list inside the container when you are editing a page.
Is this clearer? I wish I could attach a screenshot.

My Safari displays text in certains spots on a web page as mixed characters

My Safari displays text in certains spots on a web page as mixed characters. Is there a fix for this or does anyone have an idea what may be going on? I have looked at my fonts and everything seems to be working just fine. I can't quite figure out why this only happens to certain text and not others. But I can't read half of the pages on the web because of this. I can copy the mixed up text out of Safari and past it in another application and the copy is in perfect english then.
an example of what I am talking about is below:
(Kvg"Urgekhkeu"/Crmg"/"Crmg"Fgumvqru
Here is what it says when I copy the same characters out of Safari and paste them below:
(Item Specifics - Apple Desktops)
Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated

I work as a graphic designer so I keep a very clsoe eye on my font library. In fact I don't use font Book, I use Suitcase Fusion. But i went to font book and double checked and I don't have any duplicae fonts in there. Would you have any other ideas?
thanks for your help!

Flash SWF with Video file will not play in web page

Hello Flash group,
I have created a flash video file from a *.wmv file.
myvideo.flv.
I have used flash to build an swf file that plays the video
(with a default skin).
I have then imported the media file into an html page using
Dreamweaver. I did not import the flv file, but the swf file with
the "video" in it.
The page plays find on my development server (where
Flash,Dreamweaver, etc is installed).
When I moved the html page, the flv file, the swf file and
the skin to my production webserver (linux and apache)
the flash files do not show up on the web page. The dev
server is a windows XP running apache 2.2)
Any ideas on what I need to do???
thanks,
eholz1

It may cause by any of the reason below:
- You have uploaded the flv file to the wrong directory
- Your flv file path/name is incorrect. check all case
sensitive etc.
- Your web server doesn't support FLV MIME type.

Playing swf file by onclick in html web page

First time poster so please forgive any protocol lapses. I'm trying to play an AS3 swf embedded in my web page by an onclick javascript function in my page. Have tried many different ways, including the ExternalInterface class but no luck. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I have a feeling that I'm overlooking something very basic.
javascript :
function playCorrectMovie() {
          var getSwfObj = swfobject.getObjectById("FlashID2");
          if(getSwfObj)
                    getSwfObj.play();
<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.registerObject("FlashID");
swfobject.registerObject("FlashID2");
</script>
html:
<div id="answer1" class="answer_box">
<ul>
    <li><a href="#" id="gifted" onclick="MM_effectShake('answer1'); return false;">gifted musicians who trace their genealogy back to Monteverdi.</a></li>
    <li><a href="#" id="wealthy" onclick="MM_effectShake('answer1'); return false;">successful entrepreneurs (the folks who brought us the original Bazooka bubble Gum.</a></li>

No need to be sorry... one other thing... the url to the swf uses the "public_html" directory as a lead-in.
<param name="movie" value="public_html/our nations.swf" />
The public_html directory of a web site is typically where a web site's content is placed as the base for a web site on a host server. Unless you have a directory named public_html within what is probably already the public_html folder, then you do not want to specify that. It is more probably supposed to be...
<param name="movie" value="our nations.swf" />
If you look at the various images that are specified in the html code, they do not specify that directory. So if the swf is in the same folder as them, you do not want to be specifying the public_html part of that address.

Flash file over Flash file

Using Dreamweaver CS3, I have created a slide show using
Flash CS3. I want to have a flash button overlap just part of the
flash side show.
What happens is the button part that overlaps the flash slide
show, is behind the slide show. And when I move the mouse over, it
appears above the slide show but flckers.
Once the slide show is over, the button works fine. It
appears above the slide show when I hover over.
Is there anyway for this to work?

Why do you need a Flash button outside of the other Flash
file? I would think that you should just put that button into the
slideshow so that it shows on every frame and has the functionality
you wish for it to have.

Save AI file as Flash file with hyperlinks in attributes

I have created a map for class project. added links for websites to text in map. When I export the map as a flash file. All I get is a picture without my hyperlinks working.
Please advise how to save it or what function is required to be set for it to save and allow me to open in internet explorer and connect links.

Not really the right way to do it.
Try exporting as .html file. It's still not the best way, but it should
bring your links with it.
Flash uses a completely different kind of linking than .html and Illustrator
doesn't export it well.

Need to add jpg image file to flash file

Dear All,
I am new to flash. I have one flash file in which I want to show some images in a slide show way at start of the flash file.
Please let me know the step by step if possible.
Thanks

You're not likely to get a step by step created just for you here, but there are probably plenty of folks that have already done that for you elsewhere. Try searching Google for "Flash slideshow tutorial" or if you plan to make it actionscript controlled, use "AS# slideshow tutorial" where you substitute 2 or 3 for # depending on which version of actionscript you want to use.
If your title has any bearing on what you really need to know, then in the File menu select Import, select between the cjoices offered, and select the file from the directory search interface that appears.

Conversion of video files into flash files

Hello friends..
Can anyone tell me what to do to convert any video files(with the exception of .dat) into flash files (say .flv) in JSP?
Can anyone send me a sample code??
Please guide me.
Thank you

hang on, I'll just dig out my ancient copy of
ConvertAnyContentTypeToAnyOtherContentType4j...^_^ LOL!!!
Thanks... I needed that!Lage Raho Pyaare...
Carry on...
But do find some solution to the problem.... and not
problem to the solution..
Good wishes againok, look, what I'm saying - in a roundabout way - is that converting video to flash isn't as simple as just doing a few API calls in java. why you want to do it in java at all is beyond me, to be honest. your best bet is to approach the problem another way, from the flash angle. do some googling, get a copy of adobe flash, and see how to convert from video to flash, using an application, before worrying about doing it in code. and I could be wrong here, but you won't "convert" a video to flash, you'll embed the video as an object inside a flash movie
but where java comes into the equation is anybody's guess. if you're hoping to do this on-the-fly in a JSP, as I suspect you are, forget it

CS6 - Trouble displaying Flash video in Web pages

Hi,
Here's my problem: I embedded .flv videos in HTML pages the same way I've been doing it for years. It worked fine until I moved to CS6.
The last video clips were edited and encoded in Flash format (1024x576 for 1800 bps) in Premiere CSS6 then embedded in HTML pages in DW CS6 after creating the .swf files with Flash CS6. All CS6, no compatilbity problems then.
Once onlie, they fail to display properly, i.e. you have to click a couple of times on the Start/Pause button and occasionally refresh the page to be able to view the video. It's works fine once started but the trouble is getting it to start automatically.
There's over 300 videos ranging from a few seconds to about 15 min on this site, and this is the very first time I come across this kind of problem.
Any suggestion?
Here's on of the old videos: http://www.aquiceara.com/UK/Video/Bresil_Maranhao_Survol_Lencois.html
And here's one of the CS6 "troublesome" videos: http://www.aquiceara.com/UK/Video/Chine_HK_Tai_Hang.html

The answer is to exactly copy the code from the CS5.5 and below versions of Dreamweaver.
Bu Nancy is correct. Everyone is moving to other standards for video on websites. Nancy generally recommends Pickle Player and I have been hand-coding using the HTML5 standards. I have generally found that all videos play in all browsers using the new standards, though you do have to support OGG and WEBM video files on your server.

.swf displaying in preview, but not on actual web page

As above really. I don't really use Flash, but was just trying to put up a little video demo online.
Just dragged the video onto the canvas, published it as an .swf, but when I upload it all and visit the web page, the video clip / swf isn't displaying.
Its fine in the preview though.
The page is here :
http://www.hpwebdesign.co.uk/demo.html
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks.

OK - I didn't think you needed to upload the original video clip.
Anyway - I've recreated my steps.
1. Opened Flash.
2. Created a new ActionScript 3 page
3. File > Import > Video with Load external video with playback component
4. Save file
5. Publish SWF
6. Switch to DW and Insert > Media > SWF
Before switching to DW, it all looks OK in the preview.
How do I get Flash to create the HTML page? I had a quick look through the menus, but didn't see anything....
