Embed Tag Problem

Hi;
I have the following code:
<body topmargin='0' leftmargin='0' marginheight='0' marginwidth='0'>
<object classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' width='100%' height='100%' id='seaFlightPreloader' name='seaFlightPreloader'>
   <param name='movie' value='SeaFlightPreloader.swf'>
   <param name='allowfullscreen' value='true'>
   <param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always'>
   <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
   <embed id='seaFlightPreloader'
          name='seaFlightPreloader'
          src='SeaFlightPreloader.swf'
          width='100%'
          height='100%'
          pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
          type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
          allowscriptaccess='always'
          allowfullscreen='true'
   />
</object>
which produces 100% width but only about 10% height! See here: http://seaflightvi.com/
What do?
TIA,

Possible fix for embed tag problems in Safari 5.1 - Quicktime 7.6.6

I would be grateful if anyone can confirm the following problem and fix:
A user of my website reported that embedded audio (mp3) files ceased playing after installing Safari 5.1 on OS X 10.6.8. I updated my test machine's Safari from 5.0 to 5.1 and confirmed the issue. Some audio would play, some wouldn't. Wierder, a random selection of Javascript-triggered embedded audio would report, "Error calling method on NPObject".
I had a very similar issue with 64-bit Mac Firefox 5 and Quicktime Plug-in 7.6.6. In the case of Firefox 5, the fix was to open Get Info... on Firefox and select 32-bit mode (this also stopped an annoying Quicktime dialog).
The Safari problem with embedded mp3's didn't occur under a fresh user account, so I came up with a possible fix:
In Safari, choose "Empty Cache...", followed by "Reset Safari", checking only "Remove all website data" (if you don't want to lose your auto-fill, passwords and history).
My system seems to have recovered its senses... I'm just wondering if the fix above was what did the trick.
Cheers,
Chris

I followed these steps and it did not fix my problem. I still click on an mp3 link and it downloads, rather than opening in the browser.
It gives me the option of choosing, and works both ways (download/open) in Firefox.
sample link: AccNoir+Fest+2011+PRA+mp3.mp3
Curiously, if I click "Open With" on the dowloaded file and tell it to open in Safari, it opens fine like I want. So it's not that Safari can't, it just isn't being told properly.

Embed tag is not working with Mozilla Firefox 23, 24 and 25

Requirement:
While loading the java applet on a page, if the user system do not have plugin loaded then our code should redirect the user to get Java 1.6 plugin.
At present I am using below two URL for automatically JRE6 download
• IE : https://java.sun.com/update/1.6.0/jinstall-6-windows-i586.cab#Version=1,6,0,31<br />
[When user tries to access the applet page from IE browser then he/she is getting pop-up message for JRE6 installation, provided that the user system don’t have any JRE installed]. This scenario is working IE8,9,10<br />
• Mozilla family : https://javadl.sun.com/webapps/download/AutoDL?BundleId=60336
Below is the used script for ‘Object’ and ‘embed’ tag:
<pre><nowiki><script language="javascript" >
<OBJECT classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" name="OrderApplet"';
WIDTH = 775 HEIGHT = 600
codebase="https:\/\/java.sun.com\/update\/1.6.0\/jinstall-6-windows-i586.cab">';
<PARAM NAME = "type" VALUE="application\/x-java-applet;version=1.6.0_31">';
<PARAM NAME = "scriptable" VALUE = "true" >';
<COMMENT>';
<EMBED type="application\/x-java-applet;version=1.6"
pluginspage="https:\/\/javadl.sun.com\/webapps\/download\/AutoDL?BundleId=60336">
<NOEMBED>
<\/COMMENT>;
<\/NOEMBED><\/EMBED>;
<\/OBJECT>;
</script></nowiki></pre>
User is getting pop-up message for JRE6 installation with browser IE8, 9, and 10 and also with Mozilla Firefox 22, but it’s failing with latest version of Mozilla Firefox23,24 and 25.
I have gone through so many sites but could find any reason for this behavior.
I have provided JRE6 32-bit version download URL, here I don’t think so I’m doing any version incompatibility because both the JRE6 and Mozilla Firefox are 32-bit version. And 64 bit Firefox version is not available for windows.
I’m not sure why the code is working with Firefox 22 and its lower version but
doesn’t work with higher version than firefox22….like 23,24,25
Can anyone help to sort out this issue?
Thanks, <br />
Sumit

Sorry for the delay in getting an answer, yesterday was a holiday in the USA.
This forum is for Firefox user support, not for web developer support. My rough guess is that since Mozilla has blocked all but the most recent update for Java 7 Plugins - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/ - and Firefox 23 brought in a new '''Simplified interface for notifications of plugin installation''' - http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/23.0/releasenotes/ - that is probably why you're having a problem with versions of Firefox after Firefox 22.
Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web page development issues with Firefox. <br />

Has EMBED Flash problem in IE caused sites to abandon Flash?

Apparently this problem has been around for a while and
several sites
that used Flash for slideshows on their homepages seem to be
using ajax
now. I didn't realize that there was some eolas patent issue
that
Microsoft activex was violating. I finally found a site that
explained
how to add Flash with a javascript, but am wondering if other
webmasters
just decided to remove their Flash content and used ajax or
something
else? Given that Microsoft is trying to push Silverlight it
appears
suspicious that this embed problem has come up recently. Is
this just
another attempt by Microsoft to include issues in their
products that
interfere with the products of other companies?

Ajax is much easier to update to none Flash Savvy users.
Perhaps going back and
forth to a designer asking him to update a slide show is not
something some like
to do.
I wouldn't assume flash it's going to be abandoned because of
such a minor
issue, in fact I see with the release of Flash 9 player and
now flash 10 and latest
Flash authoring tool out the corner, flash only intensify
it's present online.
Papervision is almost everywhere, Audi A5 - A Rhythm of
Lines, Sony BRAVIA, Canon EOS 400D,
HBO Voyeur, Nike Sweet Spots and lots more. More and more
people are asking specifically
for suites built with this new environment.
Adobe solved the EMBED problem almost as soon as it appeared.
Flash not automatically generates
JS file and your object embed tags accordingly. There is also
very popular swfobject that
most of us use instead of the Adobe's methods...

The embed did not just effected Flash but many other
technologies. On top of it
MS lost rather substantial amount of money in the EMBED
patent case so I wouldn't think
it was to suppress one and promote another product.

Embed tag for Fonts in AS3 "exception during transcoding"

Hi,
I have the following problem, I am embeding a font in a project with the embed tag and I get the following error "exception during transcoding".
[Embed(source="D:/repo/docs/fonts/FreeSans.ttf", fontFamily="Free Sans", fontWeight = 'regular', mimeType = 'application/x-font')] public var auxFont:String;
I had this same error in Flex but I found that adding "-managers flash.fonts.AFEFontManager" in the properties of the project, ActionScript compiler, Additional compiler arguments took care of it.
I need to compile this project with the Flash compiler and not Flex is there any place in Flash that I can add that argument?
Thanks,
Ana

Try this:
          [Embed(source="D:/repo/docs/fonts/FreeSans.ttf", fontFamily="FreeSans")]
          private var freeSans:Class;
Than, you can use the embedded font via font property of TextFormat class:     myTextFormat.font = "FreeSans";

CFGRID outputs EMBED tag in IE 6

Weird problem: On my production machine ColdFusion outputs an
OBJECT tag for the CFGRID generated applet and everything works
fine. On my dev machine (same OS (Windows 2003, patch level, CF 5
service pack, same code) for some reason ColdFusion outputs an
EMBED tag for the CFGRID generated applet ... and the applet
doesn't work or show up. I applied all patches and fixes for CF 5.
I'm using XP and IE 6 against these two systems. It has to be a
ColdFusion or server setting somewhere. I've tried it on a number
of machines and the Java VM version of the requesting machine
doesn't seem to matter.
Thanks!
Kegger

thanks for responding. Yep, tried that also but I am still getting the same "uknown plugin" message on Firefox. Did you try that and it worked? It used to work for me when it was 1.5 but when I change it to 1.6, no go.
I was at Java One and meant to go to the Deployment BOF to ask the team but didn't manage to get there.
Thanks!

When will firefox be able to support html files in embed tags again?

A previous question was answered here that stated that firefox did not work with html files in embed tags. Is this a problem that is currently being worked on, or does Firefox just no longer support this?

hello, a html file is no suitable content for an <embed>-tag. you'll have to use ''iframe ''or ''object ''for it instead...

Quicktime Embed Tags

Quicktime embed tags, found at:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/embed.html
Webpage in question:
http://taras.shacknet.nu/~public1/plpp/vintro.html
So I'm trying to put an MP4 video on this web page. I set the AUTOPLAY tag to TRUE. According to Apple's site, the movie will start playing as soon as Quicktime has determined that enough of it has downloaded to allow for uninterupted play. Well, it seems that the movie doesn't start playing until the entire movie is downloaded. I'm completely out of ideas on how to remedy this situation. Additionally, it seems that your browser will just freeze until the whole movie is downloaded. This seems to happen in all browsers on Mac and PC. How do I fix this?
Also, on a related topic, does anybody know how I can redirect to another web page automatically once the movie is finished? Thanks.
Message was edited by: Sawtooth501

So, one bit of confusion. You said that as it is right now my sight can't be viewed with Windows using IE, but I have tested it using Windows IE and I can view in in there just fine (and of course, quicktime is installed). Also, as far as the codecs, I used MP4 Video and AAC Audio, which I thought was standard.
I did "save as" to the movie in Quicktime Pro, and that put it inside a .mov container. I swithced out the video files. It still seems that the video does not start playing automatically, but waits until the whole thing has downloaded. Am I clear to understand that the problem then is with the <embed> tags that I'm using instead of using javascript? I am a relatively new web developer, and I'm using Dreamweaver CS 3. I could figure out the javascript if I have to, but I want to keep things as simple as possible. Is switching to Javascript the only way to make the movie start automatically? Any way to do it with the <embed> tags that dreamweaver uses? Alternatively, would it be easier just to convert this whole thing to flash video and use that?
Also, my second question still stands: How do I automatically redirect the page to a different URL once the movie is done playing? Thank you very much for the help!

Safari 5.1 won't play .mov files using the embed tag

Since upgrading to Lion (and Safari 5.1), any page that loads a .mov file using the <object><embed> tags gives me a "Plug-in Failure" error. If I take the HTML and load the same file using the <video> tag it works fine.
Did Apple drop support for the embed tag? Is there something going on with my Quicktime plugin?
Here is an example of a page with an embedded .mov:
http://www.mediacollege.com/video/format/mpeg4/streaming/example.html
Does this work for anyone running Safari 5.1 in Lion?

please check to verify if you have the remains of plug-in attched to DivX and make sure you have installed quicktime plug-in by going to Safari -- Help -- Installed Plug-ins. If you ever uninstalled Divx without using Divxuninstaller, you'll meet this problem.
Now download Divxinstaller.dmg and run it. Then you'll see the uninstaller in the corresponding application folder.
Click uninstaller to fully uninstall Divx. Relaunch safari and enjoy!

HTML Embed tag with Autoplay not working with MP4 file

Hi,
I've added this embed tag for my MP4 movie:
<embed src="myMovie.mp4" width="502" height="309" autoplay="true" scale="tofit">
It's about 40 Mb big - so I obviously want to start playing as soon as possible so viewers will not wait for a long download. Problem is - it seems to ignore the Autoplay tag - resulting in waiting for a long time seeing the QT logo, and then starts when it's all downloaded.
Is that because it's an MP4 and not MOV?
Do I have the tag wrong?
Alternatively - is there any way to add a progress bar to show the download progress (aside from doing it through Flash)?
Thanks.

Thanks,
While it might be outdated - the "embed" tag worked on both IE and Firefox. I've tried this new code and for some reason it only works in IE, but not in Firefox. I don't know whether I should revert back to the "embed" tag or figure out what would make the new code universal to both browsers.
Regarding the file itself - I've closed in in a container of MOV in QTPro - and will soon upload it and check it. However, I've tried to re-export that MOV again with the "fast start" check marked - and it bounced the size up from 40 Mb to 267 Mb! I'm still trying different methods of compression - but not seeing good size/quality results. The original came out of Prism Video.
Thanks.

Embed tags and divs?

I have a Flash files embeded in a div. The div adds space to
the bottom
of the embed tag it seems. If I add line-height:0 the problem
goes way
visually in the browser, but in design view in DW is still
there. I have
also notice that the same is true for some of my other divs,
they have
this little space under them in design view in DW.
#rightSide_index {
float: left;
width: 515px;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
/*line-height:0;*/
http://www.agilitygraphics.com/clients/cs/
What could this be happening? Sorry for the audio on the
Flash file, I
can't mute it at the moment.
Thanks a lot!

Hi mistersquid,
   This is about as far from the correct forum as you can get. This has nothing to do with Apache per se. It is purely a question about HTML and JavaScript. However, there are some folks here that do some web development so you'll probably get an answer. In fact, I'm going to take a shot at it myself if I can figure out what you want.
   I don't understand the part about the image or the purpose of the corresponding link. Why do you want the execution of the recommended JavaScript to depend on a user click?
   If I understand their recommendations correctly, the QTWriteOBJECTXHTML function is invoked as the page loads. It sounds like the change that Micro$oft makes is triggered when an <Object> tag (or similar tag) is encountered while the document is being downloaded. The trick appears to involve adding the <Object> tags as the document is being loaded. By the time the document is rendered, the <Object> tags should be in it and the document should look just like it did before the fix. Thus, I don't see any point in changing the user experience.
   If you do have some compelling reason for changing the user experience, all you have to do is to code the page for that using <Object> or <Embed> tags. Then after you have what you want, do exactly what Apple recommends and simply replace <Object> tags like before. I don't believe that <Object> tags can be containers, can they? If not, it shouldn't be possible to create a page for which their recommendations fail to work in the fashion they describe.

Thank you for your answer.
Where is the DW validation for me?
My files are in my computer so I don’t have an external URL.
File > validation > as xml = closes DW... Maybe because it is not a correct command for HTML,
And
Window > results > validation = gives a partial mistakes (e.g. shows an open tag without closing tag, but doesn’t show a closing tag without an open tag).
Thank you.

I am trying to use the embed tag - to embed an html page with in a page embed src="page.html" /
