Convert to active content

I get a AC_RunActiveContnet.js warning when I try to run an
online Flash file. It was my understanding that Dreamweaver was
supposed to convert files to active content, or at least give you
and option. I have Dreamweaver CS3. It is not converting to the
AC_RunActiveContent.js file. Do I need an update? If so how do I
get it. I could not find it for Dreamweaver CS3/Flash9.
Thanks

When you insert a flash file in DW, it creates a Scripts
folder in your site
for you. Inside that Scripts folder, you will find the
AC_RunActiveContent.js file. Upload the Scripts folder to
server. That
should take care of your problem.

  • "Convert Active Content" problem

    Recently, I opened an html page in DW8, and a dialogue box
    appeared called "Convert Active Content". It said "This page
    contains <object> tags that may not work properly in the most
    recent versions of Internet Explorer. To correct this problem, you
    can convert these tags to browser-safe scripts. Do you want
    Dreamweaver to convert these tags for you?" So, being the trusting
    soul that I am, I clicked "yes." But when I uploaded my page, I
    could not see the Flash videos that I had put in this page. The
    same thing happened with another page. So I created new pages, and
    clicked on "no" when the "Convert Active Content" dialogue box
    appeared, and my Flash videos appear again.
    I really would like to avoid the annoying double-clicking
    that has to happen with the new IE browser whenever I include Flash
    content, but this work-around does not work. Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    You were right to say you wanted DW to "convert these tags to
    browser-safe
    scripts." What you didn't do was upload the SCRIPTS directory
    that DW
    created. Try doing that and all should be well.

  • Getting Message "Convert Active Content"

    All,
    After my last post with problems displaying my youtube video in IE, now am getting a message in DW  when I open
    the project "Convert Active Content" This page contains <object> tags  that may not work properly in some versions
    of IE, do you want DW to convert yes or no"
    I have been saying no....if that is correct how do you get the message to not appear again? thanks...dano

    Remove the active content and re-insert it, and be sure to
    upload the
    Scripts folder to your server.

  • Quicktime Active content

    Does anybody know how to get rid of the box that makes you press the key board or hit enter to view the video. They play properly, it is the active content on ie.
    I know how to fix this with flash but not with QT
    thanks

    Opps...last link was wrong.
    This one does work but it had to be manually editing from an
    embedded QT
    format which is designed to add a separate audio track via an
    mp3. But DW
    did not automatically detect it as needed "repairing" and if
    I manually
    click on the convert button it causes it to fail.

  • Pop-Up Menus and active content errors - Help!

    I'm attempting to add pop-up menus to my navigation bar, to
    make my site more user-friendly, but to no avail:
    I've tried designing pop-up menus in Fireworks, then
    importing the html code in, but that gives me errors when I try to
    insert the bar. Then, I tried putting my menus in different layers,
    with a "show layer" behavior on the button, and a "hide layer"
    behavior attached to the roll-off of the layer, but my version of
    Dreamweaver won't attach a behavior to a layer.
    Then, I noticed the tech-note on this site for the fix to use
    pop-ups in a template, so I added pop-up menus directly to my
    navigational buttons using the wizard. So here's where my problem
    comes in. . .
    When I preview my page, it throws up an active content error,
    but will still run. I uploaded it to my remote server, but when I
    went to the url, no action takes place when I put my cursor over
    it. Anybody have any ideas on how to create a pop-up menu that
    won't throw up an active content error? I've seen them on plenty of
    websites before, but can't figure how to do them.
    Any light you could shed would be greatly appreciated!

    Sometimes, they make your site less user-friendly. So be
    careful.
    The DW/FW pop-up menus are usually something that should be
    avoided. They
    are very poorly thought out and implemented, and will likely
    cause you
    continuing problems. It's foolish to devote the time to them
    that could be
    more effectively be placed elsewhere, especially since there
    are better
    options that work right out of the box, so to speak. Please
    check the free
    and commercial options here -
    http://www.projectseven.com/.
    > Any light you could shed would be greatly appreciated!
    Don't use DW/FW pop-up menus.

  • Active Content warning with web player

    We have a client who is using our web packaged program from a
    CD and they are getting Active Content warnings and they do not
    like it. Is there a way to set the active content to run when start
    the CD without using the registry? They said something about doing
    it through discretionary access control list (DACL) files.

    I've never heard of DACLs but I think the 'Mark of the Web'
    will satisfy

  • Active Content when RH topic contains Captivate movies

    I use Robohelp to display my captivate movies (published as
    FLASH).....since the Active Content issue in the latest IE update,
    my users now have to click on the movie before it becomes
    interactive.....I've managed to fix the topics in RH that don't
    have a movie inserted on them....but if there's a movie, my fix
    doesn't work unless I modify EACH htm file (each topic's code).
    This works great except that EVERY time I re-compile the RH
    project, the fix is overwritten.....
    My fix involves a javascript include file......
    Thanks.
    Pam

    Hi again Pam
    Hmmm, well I'll see if I can help any. I'm not sure what you
    mean with "fixing topics in RH that don't have a movie inserted".
    What are you fixing? Why is a fix needed if a movie isn't there?
    But on to the actual issue at hand. You are saying that
    something is being overwritten? Perhaps it will help to outline the
    process as I envision it.
    1. You have a topic containing a Captivate movie that is
    interactive, meaning the user must click or type somewhere to
    interact with it.
    2. Before the fix is applied, the user must click or press
    the spacebar in order to "activate" the control. This is equivalent
    to patting Internet Explorer on the head and saying "It's okay.
    Really. The world will, in fact, NOT end if you just show me the
    content and allow me to click it."
    3. You apply the fix, which means to use an external
    JavaScript file (.JS file) to perform a "write in" of the code
    needed to present the movie.
    4. You generate WebHelp (assuming WebHelp here, as I do not
    believe this issue manifests from inside a compiled .CHM file) and
    something gets overwritten?
    And here is the quandry. I'm assuming you are intent on
    asking either how to prevent the overwriting from occurring, or
    possibly WHY it's being overwritten. Perhaps both?
    I think the first step is to determine if the WebHelp
    generation process is actually overwriting files. I'd compare the
    HTML code of a topic that works fine prior to genning WebHelp, with
    the same topic code after the generation process has occurred. What
    has changed with respect to the code you inserted? Is the code just
    gone? Or is it possibly an issue whereby the .JS file simply hasn't
    survived the WebHelp generation process? I'm guessing the latter.
    You may simply need to add the .JS file to baggage.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Converting PDF file contents to base64Binary format

    Hi All,

  • Urgent!!! How to convert received mail 'content type?

    How to convert received mails 'content type from text/plain to multipart/*?

    you cannot change the content type of a Message object which has been received. What you can do is create an instance of a MimeMessage class and set the content type as multipart and then add the received message as a bodypart to that message.
    You can look at the javamail example codes as to how to create a new MimeMessage with multipart content.

  • "Apply Active Content Update" message ONLY in Firefox

    Active Content has nothing to do with performance of the
    movie.
    It is in regard to licensing of the player technology -
    nothing else.
    Perhaps the clients do not have the latest player and low in
    resources
    machines ? Your movie seem overly big for what it does.
    Probably reducing
    quality of images and sound w/o losing much of an actual
    quality could cut
    the file down at least to 1MB, help the playback a bit.
    It could be real drainage for older machines.
    The video works for me just fine so my guess is they simply
    do not have
    compatible player.

  • Active Content - Flash - fix for Contribute Users

    Greetings,
    I have a group of users that use Contribute. Many of these
    users create Flash Paper forms and embed them in a standard
    template. These individuals do not work with HTML or JavaScript.
    Recently a security patch for IE has been applied to the
    organization. This patch includes the IE Run Active Content patch.
    Now, when Contribute users apply Active Content and post their
    pages they get the "Click to activate this content" message and a
    bounding box around the Flash Paper content.
    Right now I know there are two work-arounds that fix this
    problem, unfortunately it requires someone usingJavascript and
    Dreamweaver (or hand coding) rather than Contribute. As Contribute
    users they do not have the rights to modify parts of the template.
    Unfortunately that part of the template is where work-around
    javascript would be placed.
    Is there a way for content providers to apply the fix rather
    than having a Dreamweaver Admin apply a fix? Is there a javascript
    modification that changes one of the two work arounds
    (AC_RunActiveContent.js and swfobject.js). These folks are not
    posting to an IIS server. They are using standard HTML templates.
    Thank you,
    TPK

  • IE Active Content + Dynamically Loaded Swfs...any help?

    Hi,
    I've recently become aware of the whole IE active content
    problem and I followed the tutorial at
    http://activecontent.blogspot.com/
    to adjust my html files accordingly. However I have one site
    located at:
    http://www.mrdodson.com/SavannahSucks/SavannahSucks.html
    which loads several swfs dynamically. However in IE none of the
    swfs will start loading until you click on one of the markers
    which, unfortunately locks the user into a zoomed in view with no
    way of exiting until the external file finishes loading. Can anyone
    provide any suggestion on how I can get around this? Should I load
    the clips in a different fashion or can it be resolved by adding
    something to the HTML? I'm a recent grad trying to finish up my
    portfolio and this is really holding me back. Many thanks for any
    suggestions.
    -Rob

    please if anyone knows anything i would really appreciate it.
    i can't send my portfolio out until i fix this one thing so pretty
    much my life is on hold until i can resolve this.
