Dreamweaver CS6 - SWF file problem.

I use Dreamweaver CS6, I've inserted a SWF file to my index.php which is on localhost (XAMPP). When I try to preview my page (from chrome or IE or Dreamweaver Live), It asks for Flash Player 16. I have installed it but still asking for it. Any solutions?

I think you're spinning your wheels with Flash. Nobody I know has used it in production web sites for several years. Best advice, switch to modern equivalents like HTML5 video or jQuery, CSS3 and HTML5 animations. You'll have fewer problems and reach a much wider target audience.

Footer div not aligning in Dreamweaver when swf file added...

Hi, here's a good one!
I have a template that has a div (#footer) as an uneditable area. When I add an swf file to a div above it (#flash), the #footer div displaces in Dreamweaver, but looks OK in any browsers that I preview it in.
Here's a link.... It's the DESIGN page that's the issue and I'm guessing that any other pages based on this template may generate the same problem.
http://www.davidcoshdesign.com/nea
Any ideas?
Thanks in anticipation!

Add clear: both; to the ccs selector below (as shown)
#footer {
    font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 9px;
    color: #FFF;
    height: 45px;
    width: 950px;
    left: 50px;
    padding-top: 5px;
    padding-right: 0px;
    padding-bottom: 0px;
    padding-left: 0px;
    text-decoration: none;
    top: -50px;

Dreamweaver CS6 Library Updating Problem

When updating my menu, which is a Library item, using Dreamweaver CS6, after the initial update sequence the program keeps trying continuously to update related files but will not complete the update. After I cancel the update it initiates the update again and again does not complete the update. The original complete update actually works but the continuous updating cycle make it so I have to close the program and restart to even work on the site.
Has anyone else experienced this?
I am using the Creative Cloud subscription for CS6. I am using the Windows 7 professional platform.

Same issue here:
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Save a library item that is referenced in a simple html file
2. When saving the template it correctly asks me if I want to update the above HTML file. When I click update it immediately comes up with a second update box without saving the library item again. It is instant.
3. Above HTML is never actually updated.
Expected results: It should only me once per save to update files that the library items are referenced in. CS5.5 did not have this problem.
The only solution I found was to remove the library item from the HTML template and re-add. That fixes it which definatley leads me to believe it is a bug in the CS6 library.

Simple SWF File problems

Hello all, im trying to create a very simple swf file, but have come across some problems.
The file i want to create is very much like this - http://davidtest.webcastglobal.com/swf2/flash.swf
This swf allows me to import it into Flex, and control which frame is being viewed.
I achieve this using a app that can be found here -
http://davidtest.webcastglobal.com/swf2/Main.html
When you press Next or Previous, it jumps forward or backward a frame.
Now i want to create a swf file like the ball file, although it will just contain a series of images, 5 for example.
I tried creating such a file in Flash, using both AS2 and AS3.
I created a project with 5 frames, and put an image on each frame, i then put the "stop();" tag on each frame.
When i imported it into my flex app, flex cudnt communicate with it.
So the ball flash file has been made in a different way ?
Can anyone shed some light on the situation please?

Can no one help me on this ?

HTMLLoader loading local content (SWF files) problem

Hello guys,
I'm just finishing my application but I facing a problem.
I'm currently developing a desktop application using AIR.
I'm using HTMLLoader to load local SWF files when te user tries to access specific content on the application.
I successfully accomplished this, but the loaded SWF also loads other files (assets and xml files with translations) and that is not working.
When a SWF is loaded he just stops on his own loading screen (when loading the XML files).
All this stuff is happening on my CustomNativeWindow:
(my CustomNativeWindow "overlays" the main application)
public function CustomNativeWindow()
         var nativeWindowInitOptions:NativeWindowInitOptions = new NativeWindowInitOptions();
         nativeWindowInitOptions.systemChrome = NativeWindowSystemChrome.NONE;
         nativeWindowInitOptions.renderMode = NativeWindowRenderMode.DIRECT;
         nativeWindowInitOptions.resizable = false;
         nativeWindowInitOptions.maximizable = false;
         nativeWindowInitOptions.minimizable = false;
         super(nativeWindowInitOptions);
         alwaysInFront = true;
         this.activate();
public function setProperties(contentName:String, contentURL:String, posX:Number, posY:Number, stageWidth:Number, stageHeight:Number):void
          this.stageHeight = stageHeight;
          this.stageWidth = stageWidth;
          this.contentURL = contentURL;
          this.contentName = contentName;
          this.x = posX;
          this.y = posY;
          this.width = stageWidth;
          this.height = stageHeight;
          this.title = contentName;
          this.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, onWindowResize);
          SWFHTMLLoader();
private function SWFHTMLLoader():void
          //REQUEST LOAD URL
          var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(contentURL);
          //HTML LOADER SWF
          htmlLoader = new HTMLLoader();
          htmlLoader.width = stageWidth;
          htmlLoader.height = stageHeight;
          htmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onHtmlLoaderComplete);
          htmlLoader.load(request);
          stage.addChild(htmlLoader);
private function onHtmlLoaderComplete(e:Event):void
          trace("NATIVE WINDOW HTMLLoader complete");
          onWindowResize();
private function onWindowResize(e:Event = null):void
          if (htmlLoader)
                    htmlLoader.width = stage.stageWidth;
                    htmlLoader.height = stage.stageHeight;
Probably something related to security?
How can I fix this?
Is kinda urgente... deadline is coming...
Thank you!

Thank you kglad for your fast response...
The reference to the content comes from a XML loaded on the main application.
var xml:XML =      <Content en="game" >
                                  <ImageSource>assets/images/gallery/resources/gameone.png</ImageSource>
                                  <ContentSource>content/gameone/gameone.swf</ContentSource>
                            </Content>;
contentURL = xml.ContentSource;
So contentURL is: content/gameone/gameone.swf
Am I in trouble?

Need your Help with Swapping SWF File Problem

Hello,
I have two separate Flash SWF files which I would like upload
into the same HTML file. But I would like to load only one of them
at the time and would like to have a Button on each SWF Flash file
which causes the other SWF to be loaded.
hmmm.. I am not sure if I managed to make sense. :o) Let me
try it one more time. :o) I would like to swap one SWF file for
another SWF file by clicking on the buttons which are placed on the
SWF files! :o)
I was wondering if that is possible or I should think of
another way to get around this problem of mine.
Thank you very much for your help and have a great day.
Cheers,
Babak

make one swf as a holder. call it main.fla main.swf file.
Embed that file in your html document. In that file place
button with the
following action :
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("second.swf", 1);
in that file have a button with action to load the 3rd file :
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("3rd.swf", 1);
by loading them in same level (1) they will replace each
other.
Pretty simple..uh ?

Dreamweaver CS6 deleting files instead of putting them

I am currently using Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 with 64 bit Windows 7 Professional.
The issues started when I attempted to get most of the files on my site in order to save them as local versions. Individual files could be retrieved just fine, but if I tried to get more than one file at a time the transfer process would stop about half way through and just sit there doing nothing. No errors were thrown, the progress window didn't shut down, it just wouldn't continue transferring the files (not making any progress at all after about 20 minutes). When I cancelled the process, files that Dreamweaver claimed were finished were completely empty in the local version. After a few attempts I went ahead and used FileZilla to copy all the files to my local machine.
Now I'm having the issue that when I attempt to edit a php file, save it, then put it on the server Dreamweaver claims the transfer was successful, but instead of being put on the testing server the file has been removed from it completely. At the end of the supposedly successfull transfer dreamweaver indicates that is no longer connected to the ftp. The really weird thing is that if I restart dreamweaver and haven't edited a file since starting it, the file transfer works fine. The put works fine weather dreamweaver has deleted the file off the testing server or not, as long as I haven't edited and saved a file since starting dreamweaver. The put also works fine if I open dreamweaver, edit and save the php file, restart dreamweaver and then try the put, as long as I haven't edited and saved a file since the last time I started Dreamweaver.
I am using Dreamweaver to manage three sites at the moment, and the other two work fine as far as I can tell, just this one site is giving me these strange ftp issues. Any idea how I can resolve this?

I don't think anyone has an answer for you. There have been several other posts similar to this in the last few weeks.
The more you can tell us about your system specs and the computing/FTP environment, the better your chances of getting some substantive responses....
Sorry.

C6-00 swf files problem

Hello, I have a problem with opening swf files (games, utilities...). It's not the problem duo the settings, I'm sure. A while a go (3 weeks) it was all ok. I have instaled many (many many) various application, and of course I had to delete some of them later ....
I must've deleted something I shouldn't have. Anyway, I did try to solve it by reinstaling the firmware, and reseting the phone to the factory settings. No success
So, the phones behaviour is like this:when I klick/tap on same icon for swf file (application), the screen goes blank for about 1/3 of a sec, and nothing happens. That's it.
It seems like I deleted some libraries or something....
Does anyone have a suggestion on this matter?
Thank you in advance.
Marko

i have the same problem way back when Nokia C6-00 was new. As you review my posts history, you'll see that this problem of yours also bugs me before.
The only solution to the problem is simple: just put more pressure on the dedicated camera key after you hear the beeping sound.
the dedicated camera key has two-step button. the first step activates the auto-focus, then the second captures it.

I run it in test and it works on my computer but when I upload it it doesnt. I have uploaded the script folder so that wouldnt seem to be the problem. I dont know what is going wrong. Some help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

open your fla is flash pro.
click file>publish settings
tick swf and html wrapper
click file>publish
upload the newly published swf and html to your server.
open the newly published server html using your browser.
any problem? if yes, post the url to your newly published html.

Linking to an external swf file problem

I have one flash presentation which contains a movie clip
button with all three events (onRelease, onRollOut and onRollOver)
which links to a video which is contained in another swf. The
button appears to be temperamental with the onRelease event. It
will work sometimes and only when the browser is opened before
hand. If its not the browser just opens with a blank screen. Both
swfs are in the same directory and the onRelease event.
I have tried IE and firefox.
Any ideas are appreciated.
p.s The AS uses a getURL syntax

Hi,
I'm the author of the article you pointed out. I'm sincerely
sorry that you found the solution code difficult to understand.
As kglad suggests, the problem is based on how Firefox
handles the url that Flash Player gives to it. (Although you're
using a relative url, behind the scenes Flash Player turns it into
an absolute url, one that starts with "file:///c|/..." or something
like that. (Firefox chokes on the pipe "|" character, even though
it shouldn't.) The workaround code in my article just constructs an
absolute url for you (using a colon ":" in place of the pipe
character, as in "file:///c:/..."). When you pass the absolute url
to the getURL() function, Flash Player passes it along to the
browser unmodified, so Firefox gets it with a colon and doesn't
choke.
I hope that helps make things clearer.

Why won't Dreamweaver CC open proto files, while Dreamweaver CS6 does

I just found out that Dreamweaver CC gives an error when trying to open an Adobe Proto file: "error extracting the proto file".
That's weird, because Dreamweaver CC uses the same plugin/extension as Dreamweaver CS6 does, or am I missing something here...
Opening the same proto file in Dreamweaver CS6 works without problems.
Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

This is annoying but i was able to open it on my mac os x laptop using the following steps:
Copy the .pro file to a location on your computer and change the file extension to .zip
Using Terminal i was able to use the following command (the default unzip application could not unzip it for some reason) in the command prompt: unzip file.pro.zip
In the Renditions folder that gets unzipped you will find an html.zip (actual filename) file.
Unzip html.zip (the normal unzip application works on this file)
Set the local site directory to the extracted html directory. You can then edit the site using DreamWeaver CC.
i hope this helps.

jason

Adding .swf file to Dreamweaver CS3 page?

In Dreamweaver MX, I used to import .swf files, view them,
and they worked, both in Dreamweaver and on the web. But trying out
Dreamweaver CS3, ,swf files I import don't seem to work for me.
They're visibly there when I view the Dreamweaver page, but they do
not play in any browser. Obviously, something has changed. What?
What do I need to do to get a .swf file to play?
Thanks for your help.

Your code is sticking some stuff in there that my code
doesn't
for example the version is different (that should be okay if
you have
Flash 10 installed, but also notice the path on your script:
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/director/sw.cab#version=10,1,1,0
which is going to director instead of flash.
I suggest you try my code, of course changed to reference
your flash file.

How to add an Animated Slideshow created in Photoshop CS6 to an HTML file in Dreamweaver CS6?

What steps do I need to follow to complete this task? I've already completed an animated slideshow in Photoshop CS6, and saved it for the Web, which produced an HTML file and a .GIF. All I need to know now is how to insert the slideshow into my Dreamweaver CS6 HTML file. Your input would be appreciated.
Thanks!

It's usually best if you use Photoshop for images only. The html code generated by graphics apps is not too swift for use on the web.
In DW, insert the animated gif into your HTML page with the Insert panel.
