Captive 6 file publish to html 5 with swf animations

hi..i created one project in captivate 6. i used some swf animations for it. i want to publish my project for HTML 5. But swf animations are not supported in HTML 5 file. so pls give me any solution , how i publish my project for HTML 5?. thanks

Well, for starters, as you already know that SWF won't work on most HTML5 devices, the obvious first step is to remove all SWF components from your course.
If you still want to have animation in your course content, your alternatives are:
Build the animation in Captivate using Effects, but limit those effects to the ones supported for HTML5 output.
Build your animations as Animated GIFs in a graphics editor and bring them into Cp afterward.
Build your animations in Adobe Edge and merge them with Captivate output after publishing.

Interactive PDF with SWF animation goes white between pages

I am creating an interactive PDF in Indesign CC 2014, each page contains a SWF animation. The PDF is set to turn to the next page every few seconds. I get a white screen between pages. HELP! I don't know where this could be coming from.

SWF files take time to load. That’s probably what you’re seeing and
there’s no way to avoid it.

How to send an html snippet with swf flash under other layers in iWeb?

I like designing websites on iweb but face problems regarding flash.
When i embedd a swf in an HTML snippet...the snippet automatically postions itself at the topmost layer. Even if you send it behind lets say a box or any shape, or a link ..on publishing it , it comes right back up when seen on other browsers like firefox or chrome. But strangely on my mac browser - safari- it works just fine.
Links in a flash swf banner when placed in iWeb (inside an html snippet ) opens other linked pages within the frame of the html snippet itself...and not as a seperate page.
I'm not a programmer so i wouldnt understand complicated stuff... but i knw how to copy paste codes inside a snippet and edit the sizes.
I need help fast?
Thanks in Advance!!

That's how browsers behave.

Use the target attribute : target="_top" or target="_blank" in the <a href> element.

Pasting custom code in a HTML Snippet and make it work is your responsibility. And if you're not a programmer, start learning and become one. Before you know you're the resident technology expert in this forum.

Management of links html in a swf animation

Hello,
I have a menu in swf which is composed of four part.
Each part called an html file.
The problem is that in one html file I have internal links and I can't use them when this html file is inserted in the animation.
Does anybody ever try to do something like that?
Does anybody know an actionscript 2 code?
Thank you very much.
Jessica.

OK. It is the code of the animation of the menu which calls my html file.
stop();
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = addItems;
//URL du fichier html à loader
if (_parent.page==4){myData.load("aux_menu.html");}
function addItems() {
// propriétés du champ texte dynamique.
contenu_text.multiline    = true;
contenu_text.wordWrap    = true;
contenu_text.type     = "dynamic";
//contenu_text.background    = true;
//contenu_text.backgroundColor   = "0xFFFFFF";
contenu_text.border     = false;
contenu_text.html     = true;
// content_text.charset = UTF-8;
//<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
contenu_text.htmlText = myData.contenu_text;
ScrollBar.setScrollTarget(contenu_text);
//Mise en forme du texte
textFormat          = new TextFormat();
textFormat.color        = "0x000000";
textFormat.bullet        = false;
textFormat.underline       = false;
textFormat.bullet       = false;
textFormat.size         = 11;
textFormat.font           = "arial";
//contenu_text.setTextFormat(textFormat);

Html over the swf animation

Hello to all, I am a newbie for this newsgroup.
I have the following problem:
I have a movie with some object at different levels.
I would like to place an HTML table in the middle of
these levels (between two levels)
Anyone can suggest me the solution?
Thank you,
Luca

you'll have to set the wmode parameter to transparent and
give your html object a z-index higher then your flash
movie.

Problem with .swf playback

Hello,
I have a problem with .swf animation playback in captivate 4. I created the .swf in flash with as3 on one frame. The animation is contained in a movieclip. I exported from flash and made sure the framerates between captivate and flash work. I import the animation to a slide and notice that the duration of the animation is .01 (could this be a red flag?). When previewing my captivate file the animation does not play it shows up static. I have my captivate file set up with continue buttons but I tried taking the button off the animation slide and it still shows up with the static what would be animation. Has anyone else encountered this? I'm really at a loss as to whats going on
For bonus points: I'm still getting a transition that fades to white briefly even after I put no transition. Is their a way to just have an abrubt transition without the fade?
Cheers
-Matt

Alright now it makes more "sense".
Your SWF problem is caused by a bug in Captivate. I have encountered this many many times. Basically if you import a Flash animation and you have more than 1 slide in Captivate it will play to the end before you get to the slide with the animation. It's a really annoying bug that also occurs if you insert an SWF created in Captivate into a master Captivate project.
There are a couple of solutions to your problem.
1. Try and Externalize your animations when you publish your Captivate project. This can sometimes remove the problem. You can edit the settings in Preferences - Publish Settings.
2. Create a loader in Flash that will pull in your animation SWF. Basically you just need to do a loadMovie shell in Flash and then have that pull in your animation SWF. I use this all the time for AS2 projects, but I guess that it will work just the same for AS3 projects.
As for your fade in / fade out issue. Did you by any chance set a transition effect on your slides? Check the Slide Properties for a transition effect. If that's not it - is your fade in issue only occuring on the first slide? The "master" setting for a Captivate project has a default to fade in on the first slide. You can change that in Preferences - Project - Start and End.

CP5 Project with inserted SWF animations

We have a CP5 project with SWF Animations inserted on the slide. The narration for the slide is on the CP5 project. Is there a way to tell the SWF animation to pause is a student pauses the CP5 project? I'm thinking some advanced action. Also if they select the pause button on the SWF animation the animation's screen goes blue until the project advances to the next slide.
As always thanks in advance for any help/ideas.
Susan

You won't be able to control the SWF playback with Advanced Actions in Captivate. They're a bit limited in that respect.
If you have access to an ActionScript developer, they might be able to create a solution for you. AS3 is much more powerful than Advanced Actions.
Your query seems to suggest that you have tried inserting these SWF animations in your project already and that there is a "pause button" on the SWF. In most SWF animations that I've created in Flash and inserted into Captivate projects, the pause button on the main project also pauses the animation at the same time.
So if your SWF is NOT pausing, it might be something to do with the way it was created. Were these SWFs created in Flash or some other application?

Issue with publish settings: html and swf files

In Flash CS5.5 when selecting, Publish Settings: html and swf, the html file does not display the swf from the URL after ftp. The swf file, however, does display from the URL without the html file. My work around has been to hand code the html. Is this a known issue or is there something else that might be causing this to occur?

Here are two examples created by two different students in the same lab using the same software configurations:
http://www.miszxbrii.byethost13.com/howellanimatic.html
The first frame of this one displays only.
http://vaivadesigns.byethost3.com/YoungMidterm/YoungMidterm.html
Here it is again with a new html page:
http://vaivadesigns.byethost3.com/YoungMidterm/midterm.html
The swf path was the documents folder and another folder on the HD.

To add meta tags, you open your published .html pages with TextEdit or any other text editor and modify as required. You have to do redo it each time you republish. I need step by step instructions on how to accomplish this please .

Rage Sitemap Automator and iWeb SEO Tool are two different applications.
Use SEO Tool to add the title tag and meta description. These need to be added to the html file for every page of your website. SEO Tool stores all these so that when you republish you only need to add tags to any new pages and click the re-apply button to refresh the existing ones.
Once you have added. refreshe the tags with iWeb SEO Tool and uploaded the files with your FTP application, then open the site in Sitemap Automator and create and upload a new sitemap.
Once you have set up accounts with Google, Yahoo and Bing, verified your site with each and submitted a sitemap, on subsequent publishing Sitemap Automator will resubmit the sitemap with one button click. It will also notify Ask.com whch doesn't require an account since you can add your domain name to this URL to ping them...

How to generate & publish webhelp html files in different folder than default folder

Hi All,
I am new to robo help. I have a requirement to generate & publish webhelp html files in a different folder than default folder.
Could anyone please tell me the steps to change the folder
Thanks
Rashmi

You change the generate folder and filename in the first field on the first page of the wizard. It must be a folder on your hard disk.
You change the publish folder in the last page of the wizard. Anywhere you like.

Did you create a PivotTable report in the file? As your description, the HTML format could be used correctly in Excel 2007. Did you get the other error message?
Such as,Unable to read file.
When you click OK, you receive the following error message:

Adobe Cap 5.5 on Moodle - publish without SCORM, with .swf files

Hi,
My agency is using Moodle as a training platform and I need to publish my captivate training files to Moodle.    We track training completion through assessment reports.   I upload two different Adobe Captivate 5.5 training files.
(1)   the training portion with .swf (Raptivity) interactivity
(2)   the assessment portion - published in SCORM
I am able to successfully publish the assessment portion of the Adobe Captivate 5.5 in SCORM to Moodle.     However I am unable to successfully publish the training file.
I do not need to publish the training portion in SCORM so am open to suggesions of the best method to get the training file with Raptivity .swf files working on Moodle. When I publish the file it will work perfectly on our local network but does not work in Moodle. I have tried publishing the training portion (1) with and without SCORM without success.
Thank you for your help.
Note:   Please see my post 4-12-11.   I was unable to list files in the imsmanifest.xml as suggested in the response - and wonder if someone could provide further detail/ support with this suggestion.   How do I add the other tags?   Would someone be able to provide a screen shot of these steps?     Thank you.

In the dialog inside Captivate where you set up the path to find the video file. By default, Captivate sets an absolute link, however, this path will be invalid if your video will be moved to another system (e.g. the LMS). You have to alter the default path to make it a relative path. The usual method is to copy the video file into the same publish folder as the Captivate SWF. (By default, Captivate doesn't move your video file for you at publish time.) If your FLV or F4V file is sitting in the same folder as your SWF, then you can just use the filename of the video file as your relative path when setting up the link in the dialog.
I also recommend you ONLY use lowercase filenames at all times for Captivate projects, including the published file and folders, and that you NEVER have spaces in files or folder names. These precautions will eliminate many baffling link failures when projects are moved from a Windows development environment to another webserver environment.

How to publish to an FTB server in iWeb 2 using the File ➙ Publish to Folder option??

I was just given the following advice regarding publishing to an FTP other than MobileMe.
Web 08 does not have that feature (drop down menu to publish from "site" icon). You will need to upgrade to iWeb 3 in iLife 11 in order to get that feature. You can get iLife 11 at the online Apple Store while supplies last since iWeb (and iDVD) have been discontinued by Apple
To pubish to an FTB server in iWeb 2 use the File ➙ Publish to Folder menu option and then use a 3rd party FTP client like Cyberduck to upload the site files.
Follon-on question, can anyone provide more details on how to do exactly what was suggested? I toyed with it and can only get it to publish to a folder on my desktop, but not to an external FTP. (I have already purchased a web-host package, just need to publish to it!)

Okay. When you publish your site from iWeb to a local folder what you will get is one site folder - this site folder will have the same name as you gave your site in iWeb and one separate index.html file.
Your site folder contains an index.html file as well as the separate index.html file. You NEED both.
What you need to do is firstly using Cyberduck or whatever, upload your site folder to your host into whatever folder you need to upload to on the server - could be 'public_html', 'htdocs' or whatever - this is your root folder.
You then need to upload your separate index.html file to your server too, but this index file needs to sit outside your site folder because it needs to point in towards the index.html file that is in your site folder - this is the first page of your site.
You don't delete or duplicate any index files - iWeb produces the two index files that you need when you publish to a local folder - one index file in the site folder itself and one separate index file that sits outside the site folder and points into the first page of your site.
Also, remember to call the first page of your site something like Home or Welcome, but DO NOT name it index.
By the looks of things here you have not uploaded your index files correctly.
What I would suggest that you do is start over - so open Cyberduck and connect to your server and go and delete your site folder and your other index file if it is still there.
Go back to iWeb and publish to a local folder again and notice that you have both your site folder and separate index.html file.
Now go and open Cyberduck again and connect to your server and note where you need to upload your files to.
Now go and upload your Site Folder to your server and once this has finished go back and upload your separate index.html file, but this needs to sit outside your site folder. If you do this, then your site should display okay - as long as your other index file is pointing into to the first page of your site it should display correctly.

Can't open file "~/sites/index.html." in iWeb09

I have been searching through posts and I have noticed some that are very similar to this question, but are not exactly related. My domain file worked fine before upgrading to iWeb09. Now I get the error: can't open file "~/sites/index.html." Has anyone found a way to import the iWeb08 domain file into version 09?
Nice job Apple! How can you release a product that does not correctly import or update the file from the previous version(s)? There is no way that you could have missed this in testing...

You will never be able to open this file with iWeb, because, as it states it is a User/Sites/index.html file and iWeb cannot open this files - anything with html on the end of it is already published and iWeb cannot open this. It is not the same as your domain file.
Go to User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites and try opening your domain file, rather than something that is already published. iWeb cannot import - at least not published pages.
