Can't publish html file

When I go to publish my file in html I get an error message:
"Error creating SWF movie file. Be sure the destination file is not locked or on a locked drive. Also, check that the file name is not too long"
I've done all of the above and still get the error. I can export the SWF but I need a transparent background so I need the html. Any suggestions?

In the windows version of Flash, the full path for the html and the swf files are written to the Publish window. If you are working on this file on a computer other than the one that originated the file, then the path may be unrecognized by Flash. Since the windows that hold the path in the Publish window scroll to the end of the file name, you may not see the rest of the path name. Select the text in these spaces and delete and write the file name that you want, or, close the Publish window and resave the fla to a different location. Then publish.

Flash Player Security error when publishing HTML files

I am new to the Captivate world and am just in love with the
features - but I have been having a very difficult time publishing
my "movies". I have 8 files that are all called upon in one movie
(like a table of contents). I have abandon the though of publishing
each as an EXE file - and have decided to go the HTML route.
However when I try to run the published HTML file I get an Adobe
Flash Player Security error - saying "Adobe Flash Player has
stopped a potentially unsafe operation." It then says that the
local SWF file is trying to communicate with the Internet-enabled
HTM file.
Can someone please tell me what this means? We are using
Captivate for distance learning as well as internal - so I can't
know for sure what the end-users will be using when the files are
used.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to our community, Rachel
Where are you running your movie from? If you are planning on
running them from a server, there should be no need to worry about
your end user seeing those messages. However, if you are planning
on each user copying them to their own hard drive or if you are
running from a CD-ROM, you may need to perform some trickery to
make them work without issue.
The message is occurring because there are links in some of
the files that point to internet resources and the Flash player is
seeing that as a potential security risk. So it is blocking the
action until you pat it on the head and assure it the world will
not, in fact, end if it shows you the content.
If you wish to banish the screen on your PC, take a look at
the tutorial linked below.

I'll hold off on the other bit until I'm certain what we are

Can I import html files into Buzzword?

Can I import html files into Buzzword?

Thank you for your post.
Buzzword lets you import Microsoft Word (DOC, DOCX), plain text (TXT), Rich Text Format (RTF), Word 2003 XML, and Open Document Format (.odt) files. (Font substitution and other formatting changes sometimes occur on import, depending on the content of the document.) You'll need to convert your HTML file to one of the supported file types before importing to Buzzword.

Hi
Can you tell me which version of dreamweaver you are using (and flash pro, if you have it), as the code you provided has element of a number of different versions (e.g. your js flash files are reasonably new, but your flash inserted into the html body is old, but with the cs3 version of flash player indicated!). Also the detect flash file is no longer required.

.mov file (video) not showing in published html file

I inserted a .mov file into a digital book. Published it as html. I can see it in the web browser, but my teammate cannot. What could be the problem?

By "in it, " I mean the indd file has a mov file inserted into it. I published the file as a swf and html. She could see the html document, but the video wouldn't appear. She clicked on the poster image and then the slide was blank. If I insert a f4v file into the indd file and publish it as swf/html, she cannot view the html document at all.

Can't publish larger files in iWeb 09

Hi
Have recently updated my iWeb to 09 and had accidentally deleted my old Domaion file so had to rebuild site from scratch. Anyway, since I have, it gets stuck on pages that have any larger files on them (movie and audio files) despite having plenty of space in my MobileMe account. I get "Try again later" message.
Have managed to publish successfully to a local folder which I then tried copying with index to 'Sites' on my iDisk but that that too presents a problem saying "The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "" could not be read or written. (Error code -36)
I'm baffled! All I want to do is publish my site without any hassle, the files aren't that big only about 40 MB each. Can anyone suggest anything? Have had a look at iwebfaq and on here and have tried a few things but nothing seems to help so far. Any suggestions would be very gratefully received! Thanks!

That error code is -36 ioErr I/O error. Can you publish a different site? Crate a small test site and see if it will go thru. If not then it's not just your primary site.
If you expect to revise the site occasionally or want your visitors not to have to wait for those large files to load while the host page loads you might look at these ways to add a movie or audio file.
Movie: QT Movies and Opening Item in New, Specially Sized Window. The code used is shown.
Audio: Flash Audio Players - 3 different types of flash audio players. The code used is shown.
These methods require loading the movie or audio files only once and do not load on the pages until they are played.

Can't edit .html file in dreamweaver?

Why can't I edit .html file in Dreamweaver CS 5.5 when it is not attached to a template?
I have always been able to edit it every other time I have opened the file (since I built the site over two years ago).
Now each time I try to edit it in Design mode, no matter where I click in the file the whole page gets a dark grey overlay and I can't get a curser.
I am still able to edit the code directly but I do not want to be restricted.
The last thing I did the last time I opened the file was paste Google Analytics code in just before the </head> tag. I did this to all the files on the site but this is the only one that isn't working. I have tried taking out this code but it makes no difference.
I am using a 6 month old Macbook pro.
Can anyone help me?

In your stylesheet you have -
.container { overflow:hidden; width: 100%;}
.container2 { overflow:hidden; width: 646px; margin:0 0 10px 0}
Try right clicking on the page in Design view and then selecting Element view > Full and see if that helps.

Can't open HTML files from local or remote location

Hello Experts,
I've tried deleting my remote location, and adding it back
again several times and I still can't open any HTML files. I can
check out the pages, and check them back in, but nothing shows up
on the screen. Does anyone know what may be causing this? I'd
really like to update my website soon. If I click on the web images
they open up in my photoshop, it's just the Dreamweaver HTML
portions that won't open up.
Thank you,
Calie

> Unfortunately I can't seem to get any of the pages open
to check out the code
> view.
CLARIFY please.
You said you open them, but design view is blank.
The file is either open or not open
Is the file open? And design view is blank? Or is the file
NOT open and
there are error messages?
If the is open, even if empty design view There should be
something in code
view.
some not random attempts at fixing this:
open dreamweaver.
Open this site.
DON'T open any files.
open find and replace
Find in Source Code, sitewide:

replace with: [nothing]
reason: not much of one, but I've never seen an empty html
comment. It
doesn't need to be there.
Then, i'm trying to think of a way to fix this badly nested
bold tag
<p><b>
<a href="about-me.html">ABOUT ME</a> |
<a href="contact.html">CONTACT</a> |
<a
href="
http://blog.loveBaRKLee.com/">BLOG</a>
</p></b>
the closing </b> needs to be moved to before the
closing paragraph tag.
My next guess is that it's a css problem-
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lovebarkle
e.com%2Fdog-bed-accents.html&profile=css21&usermedium=all&warning=1&lang=en
moz-radius
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lovebarklee.com&charset=%
28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0
Fix the errors, clarify if the file does or doesn't open in
dreamweaver, if
it opens and design view is blank or if it doesn't open and
crashes the app.

New Win7 install. Can't open html files. Get "there was a problem sending command to the program".

When I try to open an html file on my hard drive, I get a "There was a problem sending the command to the program" error. There is no way I can open a local html file with firefox, even though Win7 sees it these files as Firefox documents. This is a brand-new Gateway tower running Windows7-64, Athlon phenom 4x processor, 6G RAM, and the latest version of Firefox (a week old).

Try:

You can try to redo the default browser (temporarily make another browser the default).

Is there a way where I can give an HTML File and pass database values to it?

Hello,
I have a Report that has Complex Layout with different Fonts,sizes etc.
After designing it in Front Page, the HTML Source comes to be around 180 KB. Portal Reports with Custom Layout fail to get this size of layout code( seems the limit is around 32KB).
Writing my own stored Package using htp/htf calls, but still I needed to paste this entire 180KB Code and replace the layout names with database names. This works fine but the readability of this code is ugly.
Is there a way where I can feed the database values as parameters along with the HTML File to pick substitute and then
show me the output?
Thank you.

Firefox can not open .HTML files

I am using the Firefox 14.0.1 . I can't not open any kind of .HTML file(written in notepad) in Firefox when in others browsers I can open these normally. When I am trying to open my HTML file to test them in Firefox, they couldn't be open rather than I am getting some unsorted of scripts like chines or something like this (I don't know clearly which kind of language)
I don't understand what do?
In advance thanks for your helping.

It is possible that you saved the file in an UTF-16 encoding instead of UTF-8.
You can try to test that if you aren't sure.
*Firefox > Web Developer > Character Encoding
*View > Character Encoding

Can an external html file be loaded into and displayed in Flash?

I currently pull an html file into our site via iframe. (due to various factors, I cannot host the information in the html on our site and need to host it elsewhere). Is it possible to use a loader or other method to pull this information into flash?

Thanks. I didn't think so, but needed confirmation from someone much smarter than me.

Insert the Cd an open it, drag the files to a NEW folder on your desktop.
Now open the files by a simple double click ...
