Dreamweaver website with flash slide showing showing graphics poorly

Hello,
I put this problem up in Dreamweaver and Flash and got some questions from couple people but no answer yet. Adobe tech support is only available mon though fri so thhey are not available, so I thought I would try here.
I have a flash slide show I built for a dreamweaver website that contains vecctor images that are losing quality when I run my domain site. I have tested the flash file in flash looks great. I have previewed in live view in dreamweaver graphics look smooth but when I load up my files to ftp to my host account and test from there the quality of the edges of the vectors is not smooth. I see lots of jagged edges and not sure why.
I test everything on my 24 inch monitor so the graphics are probably enlarged but even when I test the flash file in flash and the html file of my hard drive to a browser like firefox my graphics are smooth, so not sure if its resolution problem. also tested my website on my laptop which is a smaller screen 15 inch and the graphics look bad on the website from there too. Soi f it were a resolution problem I think the 15 inch screen would be showing the graphics smoothly not jagged. ?????
Does anyone have any ideas or could assist me with this problem? I

please keep in mind when tested in flash, dreamweaver (live view and firefox browser from my hardrive html files the graphics all appear smooth and good quality. its when I transferred them by ftp to host server files and preview there and enter in my website url that the quality of the graphics and text in the graphics is jagged in many areas.
I spoke with the domain tech support too but did not get the answer but some thoughful input.

The key answer to this problem was to import the files in the original native form ai not jpeg for the
vector illustrations which kept the quality of the text that was converted
with create outlines tool in illustrator to make each character its own independent graphic
to be independently scalable to maintain its quality. Since most of the problems I was having were related to the text inside each artwork was rendered poorly in the finished slideshow on my live website url. The digital photography images were never a problem. The commentary and feedback in the dreamweaver forum helped me to figure out how to resolve the issues I was having.
I just thought I would post here in case anyone was wondering.

Websites with Flash Not Loading

My browser is IE7, after installing Macromedia Flash Player I
am still unable to view websites with flash, I have checked add ons
in the browser settings and it shows that flash is enabled, in
addition I use McAfee Security Suite.
Any assistance as to solutions or settings I can try,/change
would be appreciated.

Simon Ward

You're welcome.
I'll be backing up to a 1TB ext. drive, so I'm going to set up Time Machine and maintain regular backups.
Time Machine is great for recovering specific files/folders. I find a clone backup much more effective for going back to a previous HD state. I think both are essential. The latter is created with SuperDuper or CarbonCopyCloner.
I have Time Machine and a bootable backup on a 750 MB HD. One partition matches the size of my iMac HD (297 mb); the rest if for Time Machine. Works well together. I create a bootable clone every few weeks or so, or just prior to a significant update to the OS, such as an incremental update, eg 10.5.6 to 10.5.7, or any Apple update requiring a "restart". This way, if something goes awry I simply can start-up from the clone and copy it back in a few minutes to the HD (only those files that have changed in the update are copied).

If the Flash object has focus then key presses are processed by that plugin.
In such cases you need to click outside that plugin (e.g. the menu bar if you can't click on the website) to make the keyboard work.

Opening Safari websites with Flash content

Opening websites with flash content
How do I open these types of websites on my IPod Touch Software version 3.0?
This is a huge oversight if it cannot be done and a Flash Player App is not available for download.
Thanks for any response. Derrell Brown

This is a huge oversight if it cannot be done
Flash is a proprietary technology owned and controlled by Adobe. It's nothing to do with Apple. Flash is also slow, buggy and RAM hungry. You can't really expect a technology that even runs poorly on relatively high-specced computers to run that well on a low-powered handheld device.
Web-sites are generally moving away from proprietary technologies like Flash in favour of open-source technologies such as Javascript, AJAX and HTML5 - all of which work on the iPod touch, and can reproduce many of the Flash-type effects you see on Flash web-sites.
Over time, I'm sure Flash will be used less and less as more and more people access the web 'on-the-go' from handheld devices, and open-standards become the norm.

Websites with flash content are causing tremendous CPU usage!!

Greetings!
I finally installed the long-awaited version 4 of firefox, and I am really disappointed. In addition to slight sluggishness now and again, it turns out that websites with Flash content (even those sites with a little flash advertising banner) are causing my CPU usage to really go up.
It's slowing down my machine, making my CPU fans spin loudly, and making for a disappointing web browsing experience.
I have disabled all add-ons, and done the usual. Even tried installing Chrome for the first time ever!
The problem is definitely Flash + Firefox 4.
I have created a brand new profile, but no dice. Wondering if anyone else experiences a high CPU load on pages with flash...

Adobe Flash Player has also been crashing periodically on 2 of my computers, I'm still running XP, one of them a powerful HTPC, Dell Optiplex 755 SFF over a new Cable Internet Connection. Buffering, Lagging, crashing when streaming video for Catchup TV (Freeview) via Firefox Adobe Flash Player Add-On, does not happen on Youtube though. Lagging & Crashing does NOT occur AT ALL in Google Chrome, but I hate that browser.
Have tried the usual disabling Flash Hardware Acceleration + Protected Mode, setting storage to Unlimited, disabling FF Ad Blockers + Hardware Acceleration, cleaning Caches, updating program versions, everything bar reinstalling programs. It's not happening in Chrome, why in Firefox?

Can you open up your Real Player and tell me what version you have? I think Real Player 15.0.6 is supposed to fix this problem. There was a conflict between Real Player and Flash this whole summer that broke Flash videos. Real Player released a update that might help in your case.
If that doesn't help, I think a addon might be to blame here. So do this:
 '''Firefox button <img src=https://support.mozilla.org/media/uploads/images/2012-03-27-09-22-48-1204f1.png> > Help > Troubleshooting Information'''
 (or '''Tools > Help > Troubleshooting Information''')
Then click the "Copy all to clipboard" button then paste it here. It will tell us what addons you have installed and I can see which one might be causing problems.

How come querystring variables don't work with Flash Slide Presentations

How come querystring variables don't work with Flash Slide
Presentations
When I create a regular new Flash FLA and publish it I can
add a querystring to the file name in the object tag and get that
value back in the flash move like this:
myflashfile.swf?myname=andrew
But when I try the same thing using a new Flash Slide
Presentation with screen, it doesn't work.
Is there something I'm missing that I'm not aware of or does
the Flash Slide Presentation not support the use of querystrings?
I have tried this using a mix of PC and Mac with MX2004 Pro
and Flash 8 Pro.
Any reference links or ideas are much appreciated.
Thanks,
Andrew

Flash slides not showing up

Yea, delete that extra semicolon on line...wait a
minute...that can't
be your site! Rats! I just got my crystal ball back from the

it's about 180 degrees out of phase!
Guess we'll have to do it the old way. Please provide a link
for us to

Firefox closes on websites with Flash content

I have been experiencing this problem after the last couple of updates. I'm currently running 3.6.6. On nearly every site that runs Adobe Flash content, the content loads to the point that I know it will work, but Firefox stops loading the content, freezes, and then closes with no error messages. I reopen it and it asks for a session restore, but only about half of the time. The other half, it restores the tabs to about 10 seconds before the crash. I would open Speedtest.net, for example, it would load the player to when the blue line appears in the bottom, and then the loading wheel in the tab would freeze. After that, it closes. It has happened every time I opened that website. It would happen on other site with flash games as well.
I have reinstalled Adobe Flash by uninstalling and then reinstalling. I have also manually upgraded Firefox again. None of these have fixed the problem.

Open up computer case, unplug and take out the processor fan cooler and wipe out all the dust, speccially in the heatsink, with a soft little brush and compressed air spray (also check power supply fan). I discovered this solution after weeks of trying all software related recommended steps and nothing worked, adobe flash player was still crashing in firefox, chrome and opera even after completely uninstalling flash and installing latest version 10.2.152.26 of the plugin. I realized this was the problem when pc started to crash unexepectedly when not playing flash videos. So, EUREKA, that did the trick for me. Hope it does for you.

What workarounds are there for OS X 10.3.9 users on websites with flash?..

What workarounds, kludges are there for users of OS X 10.3.9 encountering websites with the new version of flash?... what alternate ways are there to get the content?

What version of Flash do you have installed? The last version for 10.3 was version 9. If you don't have it, download from http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/10752710
The only other option is to upgrade to Tiger 10.4 and use version 10.

Some galleries are displayed via JavaScript, so if they aren't working the make sure that you aren't blocking JavaScript.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key). 
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

Some websites with Flash crash Safari, OmniWeb, Camino (9.0.124.0)

For several weeks, I've found that some sites with Flash will
crash OmniWeb, Safari, and Camino. The applications don't quit, but
they do freeze with the spinning pinwheel. I have cleared the
caches and history for each with no change.
The first site that I noticed this on was
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/index,
but I've since found the same behavior on other sites.
The problem is the same on two different computers: 1.
PowerMac G4 dual 450 MHz, 1GB of RAM, plenty of disk space, running
10.4.11. 2. Mac Pro dual 2.8 Gz, 2 GB of RAM, plenty of disk space,
running 10.5.2, fresh install.
I've attached a sample of what was happening in OmniWeb at
the time of crash, taken using Activity Monitor.

Upon further investigation, it appears to be a JavaScript
calling Flash Player that's the problem. In OmniWeb, using
site-specific preferences, I was able to turn off JavaScript for
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/index.
Loading the site no longer crashes OW; if I turn off JavaScript in
Safari, it also loads the site.
I have run into other sites that cause the same problem,
however, so this solution will continue to be hit or miss.
I don't know whether there is anything that Adobe can do to
solve this problem, but some investigation would be helpful.
Thanks.

Need help with Flash Slide Show

Hello, Flash friends.
I recently put together a Flash photo album for a client of
mine. She wants to be able to upload new images, so I created it
with XML using the following action-script:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];
description = [];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image
= xmlNode.childNodes.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
description
= xmlNode.childNodes.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
firstImage();
} else {
content = "file not loaded!";
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("images.xml");
listen = new Object();
listen.onKeyDown = function() {
if (Key.getCode() == Key.LEFT) {
prevImage();
} else if (Key.getCode() == Key.RIGHT) {
nextImage();
Key.addListener(listen);
previous_btn.onRelease = function() {
prevImage();
next_btn.onRelease = function() {
nextImage();
p = 0;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
filesize = picture.getBytesTotal();
loaded = picture.getBytesLoaded();
preloader._visible = true;
if (loaded != filesize) {
preloader.preload_bar._xscale = 100*loaded/filesize;
} else {
preloader._visible = false;
if (picture._alpha<100) {
picture._alpha += 10;
function nextImage() {
if (p<(total-1)) {
p++;
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
picture_num();
function prevImage() {
if (p>0) {
p--;
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
picture_num();
function firstImage() {
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[0], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[0];
picture_num();
function picture_num() {
current_pos = p+1;
pos_txt.text = current_pos+" / "+total;
As you can see, the images can only be viewed by clicking a
"next" or "previous" button.
Well, my client has since decided that she would like to drop
the buttons and have the images automatically change from one to
another while the user sits back and watches. This seems like such
an easy code to add, but I am a novice at this, and I cannot find
any forums or tutorials that give a proper code which I may copy
and paste into this pre-existing code.
Can anyone offer a suggestion?
Thank you!!!!!

Here's my quick suggestion:
Add a <link> child element to your <pic> elements
- each <link> would be a sibling of each <image>, like
this:
<pic>
<image>filename.jpg</image>
<link>
http://www.example.com</link>
</pic>
Then, in your loadXML function, add this:
link = []
for(...){
link
= xmlNode.childNodes.childNode[2].firstChild.nodeValue
Finally, in each function where you call picture.loadMovie(),
add a line below it:
picture.onRelease = function(){
getURL(link

Websites with flash photo galleries do not display photos in firefox.

I manage several websites that use the 'expose' photo gallery. Expose uses flash to display photos in the photo galleries. When you go to one of these web sites and click on the photo gallery link, the photos are not displayed, the page shows the gallery buttons but no photos. Using Internet Explorer or Chrome browsers, the photo galleries work fine. Here are 3 web sites to view;
www.wishardgallery.com - click on photo gallery
www.applemanart.com - click on art gallery
www.jewelimages.com - click on any of the gallery links on the left menu
Do the same with IE or Chrome to see the photos displayed.

Some galleries are displayed via JavaScript, so if they aren't working the make sure that you aren't blocking JavaScript.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

Dynamic website with Flash?

I'm using Dreamweaver 8 building a coldfusion website. The
content for
the webpages are pulled from an MS Access database. I'm
trying to add
in a flash photo gallery to a few of the pages. If I put the
flash
code directly on the webpage it will dispaly the flash photo
gallery.
However, if I put that same code into the database and
display it
dynamically it will not display the flash photo gallery. I
have
checked the source code of the dynamic page after it has
loaded and
the code is there.
I'm sure the problem has something to do with the slight
delay it
takes for the code to be pulled from the database. Does
anyone know of
a fix for this?
The html for both the static and dynamic page look exactly
the same if
you view the source code after the page has loaded. any help
is
GREATLY appreciated, thanks!
here is a chunk of the flash code that is being inserted:

Usually the best source of information on working with a
template is from the site where you purchased the template. There
may be supplimental information packaged with the downloaded files,
or there may be comments written directly into the files
themselves.
Exactly how you modify the file will depend on how it was
designed, what version of Actionscript was used, whether it uses a
component, or an swc file, and how well it was created.
