Activate a flash object

Question

I'm using a flash object in my html and I would like to avoid
the annoying click every time a flash object should be activated. I
know there is a way by using a 3th party program or script
(swobject or something like that) but isn't there a Adobe
Dreamwweaver/Flash way of doing that?

Answer 1

Very simple javascript will override the IE7 settings, and
allow the flash to play each time, without user intevention.
There's not really another way as far as I know, because this
depends on the user's browser. Anything that would be done from
Dreamweaver would be server-side, whereas the Java runs client
side:
- Underneath the last <object> in your HTML page,
insert the following line of Javascript:
<script type="text/javascript"
src="ieupdate.js"></script>
- create a file called ieupdate.js, with the following
content:
objects = document.getElementsByTagName("object");
for (var i = 0; i < objects.length; i++)
objects
.outerHTML = objects.outerHTML;
- Upload the file to your web root.
Fixed!
Hmmm, my first post on this forum - It's a bit bland. Can't
even add code tags around code. Can't see emoticons without
previewing the topic. Gosh!
