Embed Flash in DW Extension

Anyone Help!?
I'm trying to embed a Flash SWF in a DW extension. So far, so
good ( I put it in my Command html page between form tags and it
appears). Now I'd like it to communicate back with the JavaScript
engine inside DW.
Anyone know how? I know that Neil Clark made an extension a
while back that somehow invoked another Command html page and even
passed parameters. I downloaded it and took it apart but could not
look inside the swf source. Did he use fscommand? Is AS3 supported
via ExternalInterface? I've had no luck! Good 'ol fscommand seems
to throw an obscure error: "document.embeds has no properties".

Does anyone have any idea how this is done? The start page
for Dreamweaver is also a Flash SWF file called welcome.swf, that
in turn invokes various dw API calls. Trouble is, I have no idea
what command they are using MMExecute, getURL, fscommand?

  • How to embed Flash .flv video?

    Hello guys,
    I am wondering, is there any way how to embed Flash video onto my web page?
    And regarding QT video template on iWeb's Movie page, can I drag any kind of QT ? Like H.264 QT for example, or is it just for Mpeg2 QT?
    Thank you so much for any advise.

    What is your video codec you are working with? NTSC (and PAL) DV is about 13 gigs/hr uncompressed. When you export your QT movie from your editing application and convert the file to flv you are compressing the video at that time with a determined bit rate and video dimension. quality and file size comes down to math. File size = bit rate x movie length. Quality is bit rate in relation to dimension. Surprisingly enough the recommended video encoder for flv is Flash Video Encoder application that comes with Flash. Sorenson Squeeze is arguably the best flv video encoder. Visual Hub is not recommended if quality and efficiency is desired. Flash Player is a browser plug-in that that allows web visitors to view Flash videos on your website from their web browse. Most already have Flash player installed and you can insert a script that checks to see if the visitor has Flash player installed and if it doesn't a window will appear informing the visitor that they are required to instal the Flash Player in order to view Flash content on your website. A URL is also provided to direct the visitor to the Flash Player download page. Insert this script into the <head></head> of your site:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function MM_CheckFlashVersion(reqVerStr,msg){
    with(navigator){
    var isIE = (appVersion.indexOf("MSIE") != -1 && userAgent.indexOf("Opera") == -1);
    var isWin = (appVersion.toLowerCase().indexOf("win") != -1);
    if (!isIE || !isWin){
    var flashVer = -1;
    if (plugins && plugins.length > 0){
    var desc = plugins["Shockwave Flash"] ? plugins["Shockwave Flash"].description : "";
    desc = plugins["Shockwave Flash 2.0"] ? plugins["Shockwave Flash 2.0"].description : desc;
    if (desc == "") flashVer = -1;
    else{
    var descArr = desc.split(" ");
    var tempArrMajor = descArr[2].split(".");
    var verMajor = tempArrMajor[0];
    var tempArrMinor = (descArr[3] != "") ? descArr[3].split("r") : descArr[4].split("r");
    var verMinor = (tempArrMinor[1] > 0) ? tempArrMinor[1] : 0;
    flashVer = parseFloat(verMajor + "." + verMinor);
    // WebTV has Flash Player 4 or lower -- too low for video
    else if (userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf("webtv") != -1) flashVer = 4.0;
    var verArr = reqVerStr.split(",");
    var reqVer = parseFloat(verArr[0] + "." + verArr[2]);
    if (flashVer < reqVer){
    if (confirm(msg))
    window.location = "http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash";
    </script>
    Then replace <body> with this:
    <body onload="MM_CheckFlashVersion('9,0,0,0','Content on this site requires the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. Do you want to download it now?');">
    Beginning with Flash Player 9 h.264 QT movies are now supported for playback. Simply change the file extension from .m4v to .flv to convert the h.264 video to Flash video that can be viewed from Flash Player 9+ on a web browser.
    hope that helps!

  • Using Flash in DW extension - Security Settings

    I have a Flash SWF in my Dreamweaver extension, and I pass values between the SWF and DW using the DW API.
    However, to get it to work locally, I need to add the SWF file as a security exception, which is quite inconvenient to potential end-users.
    Is there a way to use Flash in my extension without requiring the end-user to update their security exceptions (or that provides an easy way to do so)?
    Thanks!

    for Dreamweaver is also a Flash SWF file called welcome.swf, that

  • How to embed flash in html

    I have been trying to embed a flash swf document in a free
    website hosting site called Weebly. You can add html code to it and
    i have been reading up about the ways to embed flash in html. I
    have tried all the codes but when you first save the file where
    does it have to be saved?

    I'm sure weebly have instruction for it and would be best to
    try to search the site.
    In most cases you upload the file to some folder and define
    the path in your embed tag,
    or upload to your hosting space and direct that path to the
    file there.
    As I said, each company practice differently, check with
    them.

  • Embed flash file without using IFrame UI

    Hi all,
    Can any one tell me how i can embed flash file without using IFrame UI ?

    Hi
    To run a flash file you will definetely need a platform for which you need a shockwave player or a simple browser window. From webdynpro, the purpose of making it run through a IFrame is at runtime, the frame acts as a window for the flash file to run. Hence its the direct option of running it. Otherwise, you need to use a external window to invoke it seperetely in a browser window to run the file.
    If you have any specific issues, do let us know, or else its the best option @!
    thanks

  • Embed Flash into Java Application

    Hello Friends,
    I need to develop a Java Swing application which can display the menus using Flash. So basically I want to embed flash in the Java swing application such that when the user clicks a button in the flash menu, the menu will pass a command to the Java Swing application and vice-versa.
    I am looking to use Flash this way, because using Flash we can create really good looking and smooth menus as opposed to Java Swing. I also want a solution which will be platform independent.
    Please let me know how to do this. Atleast give me some pointers or website tutorial which will guide me in this.
    Thanks a ton.

  • Has anyone managed to embed flash content within there responsive HTML5 website?

    Has anyone managed to embed flash content within there responsive HTML5 website? I'm aiming to get my client gallery Flash based but don't want to sacrifice my responsive HTML5 layout to achieve this.
    I feel the Flash gallery would be more secure than my current option,
    Thanks in advance

    It dawned on me what the problem was, in my Actionscript, I am using a XML sheet to call the pictures in the gallery. The XML sheet is located in the same folder as the actionscript, but not in the same folder as the html page, hence the Flash working when it is directly called but not when it is somewhere else. Once this dawned on me, I remembered that I used "short" urls for the images thinking of them all being in the same folder as the actionscript, but not thinking about their relative link from the location of the HTML page. So, I believe that if I change the relative urls to fit the location of the HTML instead of the location of the SWF page, it should work.

  • Embed flash video on website...

    About a month ago, I asked for a code to embed a flash video
    on my website, but now I am stuck. I was told to convert the videos
    to .FLV, which is fine. I can do that, BUT in the coding, I am
    confused because the 'file name' in the code ends with .swf. I am
    SO lost because if the video is converted to .flv how would it work
    if the name in the code ended with .swf? I am VERY new at flash,
    and beyond converting the videos to .flv, I'm lost.
    Also, if I can figure this out, would I need to add any other
    details to make sure the code works in both IE and firefox?

    Thank you!!!

    You will need to use the following <object> code for IE
    and <embed> code for
    Mozilla browsers. Replace "your_video_file.swf" with your
    actual file name
    in both places.

  • Cannot embed flash

    hopefully someone can help me out. i was out for one day and when i get back to work seems like someone poked around and messed something up.
    I'm running Dreamweaver CS5 V11 Build 4993 on my iMac.
    until yesterday i was able to embed flash by doing the following <insert/media/SWF>, and now everytime i try to embed the swf file i get an error "While executing objectTag in Flash.htm, a JavaScript error occurred."
    so does anyone know a fix for this or has experienced anything like this?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Is there a way to EMBED Flash player?

    Hello Earth-lings,
    Good Day!
    First of all, I have created a website for a client of mine
    but whenever they wanted to
    visit their 100% Flash website, they can see the 'Flash
    Detection - Download Flash
    Player from Adobe' prompt but they could not install the
    downloaded Flash Player
    as they got an error something like ' You don't have
    privilages . Please contact your
    Admin.'
    Is there any way to solve this issue?
    PS. Sorry for the 2x posts.

    But is there a way to embed Flash Player in it so that it's
    easier for
    them - what I meant was the trouble to inform their admin
    just for
    this.
