Dreamweaver or Flash

Can anyone point out the different between Dreamweaver and
Flash? I used Dreamweaver for a while and recently tried Flash, but
getting lots of feedback , some people takes a long time to get to
the site.
Also, some people said they can not access to the site, and
Mac user have problem with it as well.
I want to know if I have done something wrong?

They are two different applications made for doing different
things, and not mutually exclusive of each other... aka, I can
create a site partially in flash and finish it up in Dreamweaver.
Flash is mainly for doing websites with animation and using
other media such as sound or video. Dreamweaver is a website
development tool used for creating html pages. Since the final swf
file is loaded on an html page, both tools can be used to complete
a project.
Swf files are supposed to be cross-browser compatible, so the
Flash file probably isn't the problem. Most likely your problem is
the code on the html page calling the swf file.
If it takes a long time to get to the site either your files
are too big or your servers are too slow.

Problem with dreamweaver and Flash

Hi, maybe someone can help me, i have any problem with
dreamweaver and flash, i have a page and i have a menu and
sub-menu, and the same page i have a category en flash 550 x 700 (
photography and more... ) but when the menu to unfold
the menu to see under flash and it cant see ( sorry my
english is bad.... i hope you can understand me, and help me.. )
i dont now why always flash ever stay up, or first, and
another information under flash... this a problem... if you have
menus...
thanks.... have nice day.....

This is a drawback of using flash or any other active
content. By default, all active content including flash will
display over every other content and thats why your menu stays
under the flash movie. Some people make the flash background
transparent to show content under the flash movie, but that will
not work for menu items.
I would suggest that you make the menu such that it does not
overlap with the flash movie.

I installed CS3 Design premium upgrade yesterday onto my new mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. You gave me a new serial number. I have been able to open Photoshop, Bridge, Dreamweaver and Flash. The Illustrator, Indesign and Acrobat applications are not in my applications folder although there are folders in there with those names containing associated items. How can this have happened and what can I do?

Janetc72338130 what happens if you try to reinstall Illustrator CS3, InDesign CS3, and Acrobat? What version of Acrobat are you installing?

rezala,
You should be able to get round the issue altogether without the legacy version (and its security implications), by following this:

How to activate Studio 8 won't accept serial number of my previous versions of Dreamweaver and Flash Pro

In order to complete Studio 8 activation, I was asked to provide serial numbers of older version of Dreamweaver and Flash Pro. I did but it won't accept it.
Kindly help to resolve this issue

I know that both Dreamweaver MX 2004 and Flash MX 2004 are two versions later than version 8.0.
Other way round, Jeff - MX 2004 is one version earlier.
MX 2004 (version 7) pre-dated Studio 8 (version 8) by two years.
Adobe Creative Suite - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Macromedia Studio MX 2004 Released September 10, 2003, despite its name, it is internally version 7.
Macromedia Studio 8 Released September 13, 2005, Studio 8 was the last version of Macromedia Studio.
I have always found it odd that MX 2004 owners have been provided with non-activation serial numbers by Adobe.
However, Studio 8 owners (later version software) have been left stranded with no non-activation serials and no way to activate their software when they re-install. What do they do?

Dreamweaver 8 | Flash 8 | Fireworks 8

Are the combinations of Dreamweaver 8 | Flash 8 | Fireworks 8
good for producing high end web pages. If not, what do you all
recommend?
Also, should Dreamweaver be the ending program to peice all
of the different graphical and text elements together?
Or can you just build multi web pages through Flash alone?
I just finished reading Dreamweaver training book so I'm
hoping it wasn't a waste of time. I spent almost 1 week reading and
doing all the exercises.
I did find that uploading all your files through dreamweaver
FTP was pretty easy so I would think formating all your pages using
Dreamweaver can probably be good but what do I know, im just a nOOb
developer.

Hey, no offence taken. I too am more of an art tart than a
code head, but
also an engineer that loves to put things together and find
out out they
work.
"With every book I read or CD rom I watch I get more and more
questions."
Yup, that'll happen. It just means you are not getting
complacent and you
want to find out more. There is nothing worse that someone
who reads a book
then thinks they know it all. In World Of Web you just never
stop learning -
especially as standards change and CSS develops. Keeps your
brain working.
"cause my questions must be answered to I get the BIG
PICTURE."
Might be a good plan. Once you get a few basic principles in
place in your
head a lot more will become clear. I honestly wish I had had
some proper
training and I may have advanced quicker. You can't beat
having an expert
right there, so you can go "Sorry, just dont understand that
bit"
Mind you, things were a bit simpler 8 years ago. I wouldn't
want to be
starting out now!
I'll tell you a book that really helped be back then -
Designing Web
Graphics by Lynda Weinmann.
At some point you are also going to want to read Eric Meyer
cos he is the
god of all things CSS.
Good luck.

Dreamweaver or Flash Issue??

Hi everyone,
I downloaded the Dreamweaver 8.2 update last night and when I
opened dreamweaver, it ask me if I wanted to convert the scripts
that were no longer relevant and stupidly, I said yes to all my
files. My flash objects can no longer can be viewed on my website
however when I hit F12 to preview my files in dreamweaver I can see
them, they just do not upload or rather the page online is blank.
I’m not sure if the following targets my problem because I
have so many errors now, but these two errors stood out:
1. The tag name “embed” Not found in currently
active versions [HTML 4.0]
2. The tag table doesn’t have an attribute
“height” in current active versions [HTML 4.0]
Script example:
1. <script type="text/javascript">

Creating SCORM/AICC compliant content in Adobe Dreamweaver and Flash CS4

Could anyone please advise if Dreamweaver and Flash CS4 is suitable for creating e learning SCORM/AICC compliant content?
Many Thanks.

I thought Captivate was only flash based projects. I am currently installing the trial version of the suite to investigate.
I have read the features section of the suite and it states that Dreamweaver CS5 comes bundled with 'Domain specific html templates' that are 'instructionally sound' html templates for elearning course development. Are these not SCORM compliant?
I am really just creating a very simple online course that contains no interactive activities or assessments and is very heavily text based with several supplied flash videos. Advice on what would be best to produce this in would be appreciated.
Please note I have very little understanding of SCORM compliancy etc at this stage.
Many Thanks.

Uninstall Dreamweaver and Flash MX 2004

Hi,
I'm having problems finding information in product support
regarding how to uninstall Dreamweaver and Flash MX 2004 from Mac
OS X.
Could anyone help by directing me to on-line help, or other
step-by-step instructions. I would really like to get all
files/extensions/etc off my computer (because I'm a neat freak) and
don't like having misc. files lingering around.
Much Appreciated,
Don

Put the files in the Trash. To find orphans do a spotlight
search for DW MX2004, etc and trash these.
If in doubt, don't Trash the files, but zip them so they are
not accessible to your system. Ditto on all the orphans in the
/Library/..... and /User/Library/.....
Once you are sure that you really no longer want MX 2004,
then you can trash the zipped files.

Dreamweaver and Flash

Hope this is the right place to post since dreamweaver
supports flash and adds its own code....
I have an html page with a flash movie embeded in it. This
site is older so it is sitting in a table. Then I have another
flash movie that is floating in a div above the page with
wmode="transparent" for some reason no matter what I do including
floating both movies and messing with the z-index the
wmode="transparent" movie always falls below. How do I make this
movie sit above everything??? Any help would be much appreciated..
I cannot find a blurb matching my situation anywhere.

Which is better to learn first, Dreamweaver or Flash?

I just got the CS5 Web Premium. I have to learn several of the programs. Which should I learn first, Dreamweaver or Flash? Thought I'd ask this forum because I want to start out well.
Thanks for any advice you can offer.

They aren't closely related, so flip a coin. Learning both at the same time couldn't hurt either.
As far as Dreamweaver goes, that is primarily a tool, one that is more useful to people who have a good understanding of the languages that are involved with web design, and is not really for learning how to do web design if that is your intention. Learning web design requires learning html, css, javascript, php, etc... and learning those really only requires a simple text editor and the drive to pursue them.

How to Make Dreamweaver CS4/Flash CS4 Website Function on all Latest Mobile Devices

Hello!
I am trying to add code into my Dreamweaver CS4 file and/or Flash CS4 file in order to have the website I have created work across all of the latest mobile devices as well as traditional online systems. My flash file has a transparent stage, and my dreamweaver file has a full-screen background image. I have reviewed various tutorials and articles available online, and some advocate simply adding code, which does not seem to be working for me, while others suggest having a similar separate site created solely for mobile devices. If this is the best option, I don't know how that should be set up. What is the best path to take with this?
This is the collection of various pieces of code I have tried adding to my files:

I have tried various combinations of the code listed above, but nothing seems to be working. I am not sure as to the positioning of the code, and maybe that is the problem, or maybe it is because this code in not for CS4, or not appropriate for my project. I also do not know what code should be inside the Flash file, nor what should should be inside the Dreamweaver file.
Thank you in advance for any assistance!

Hi
To add to what Gramps has said, Adobe has ceased developing its flash player for ALL mobile devices so do not use Flash for any mobile device.
Depending on the complexity of your Flash program you may be able to recreate it using Edge, but the code generated by Edge does not work in IE8 or below.
For details on Edge, see - http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/edge/
