Embedded Web Pages

Having just installed Mavericks and Keynote 9, I am unfortunately now aware that it is no longer possible to embed web pages into Keynote slides. A friend suggested that it was possible in Powerpoint and sent me a mail containing the ppt presentation as proof.
When I opened the presentation, it automatically opened it Keynote.....and none of the functions worked.
Stupid Question: I take it I need to install MS Office for the ppt resentation to display correctly, with embedded pages, on my Mac ?
I downloaded NeoOffice, but wasn't sure what to do next !
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Depands what you mean by "embed" a webpage.
make a screen grab of the webpage (command shift 4) and drag it onto the slide
create a hyperlink to the webpage and it will open in your default browser

Bidirectional communication between Shockwave Player and embedding web page

Can the 3D content in a Shockwave Player object be
manipulated by JavaScript from its embedding web page somehow ?
That is can the Shockwave Lingo/JavaScript capabilities be
leveraged from OUTSIDE the Shockwave movie ? And can the Shockwave
movie call arbitrary JavaScript functions which are defined in its
embedding web page ?

Embedded Web Page?

Is it possible to embed a web page (like an iframe in HTML)
as a Flex/Flash component inline?
Though I believe it's possible to accomplish this with
Text.htmlText I can just reference a URL and have it load, I would
have to parse the content and set it in. Further, it wouldn't allow
inline navigation which is preferrable.

Here's my first iteration of the WebBrowser Flex component.
I'm going to add more features to properly support scrolling,
events, etc. but this will do for what I'm working on right now:
package jsl {
import flash.external.ExternalInterface;
import flash.geom.Point;
import mx.containers.Canvas;
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
import mx.events.MoveEvent;
import mx.events.ResizeEvent;
public class WebBrowser extends Canvas {
[Inspectable(defaultValue=null)]
private var pageUrl:String = null;
private var initted:Boolean = false;
public function WebBrowser() {
super();
this.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, onFlex);
this.addEventListener(MoveEvent.MOVE, onMove);
this.addEventListener(ResizeEvent.RESIZE, onResize);
private function onMove(event:MoveEvent):void {
validateWindow();
private function onResize(event:ResizeEvent):void {
validateWindow();
private function onFlex(event:FlexEvent):void {
validateWindow();
if (pageUrl != null) ExternalInterface.call('loadURL', id,
pageUrl);
initted = true;
private function validateWindow():void {
var p:Point = new Point(x, y);
p = localToGlobal(p);
ExternalInterface.call('updateBrowser', id, p.x + 2, p.y +
2, width - 4, height - 4);
public function set url(_pageUrl:String):void {
pageUrl = _pageUrl;
if (initted) {
ExternalInterface.call('loadURL', id, pageUrl);
[Bindable(event="changeUrl")]
public function get url():String {
return pageUrl;
The only JavaScript necessary is as follows:
function updateBrowser(id, x, y, width, height) {
var iframe = document.getElementById('iframe' + id);
if (iframe == null) {
iframe = document.createElement('iframe');
iframe.setAttribute('id', 'iframe' + id)
iframe.setAttribute('style', 'position: absolute;
background-color: white; border: 0px;');
iframe.setAttribute('frameborder', '0');
var body = document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0];
body.appendChild(iframe);
iframe.style.left = x;
iframe.style.top = y;
iframe.width = width;
iframe.height = height;
function loadURL(id, url) {
var iframe = document.getElementById('iframe' + id);
iframe.src = url;
The way that pointcast.com does it limits you to a single
browser in your Flex page. This way you can have as many as you
like and they are based off an 'id' passed to it.
Hope someone else finds this useful.

Router Web Page Authentication

Sorry to be bringing this up again, it looks like it's been addressed a few times in the last couple years, but I've read these multiple times and attempted to apply the lessons they teach and have not had success.

and of course http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication
What I'm trying to achieve here is use LabVIEW 2010 to rip text from multiple pages of a local router via WiFi, parse the text, and make decisions based on the values retrieved. Unfortunately some of the information I need requires a password be entered (just a password, "admin") before being granted access to to the pages I want. Pretty typical for routers though I think.
Ripping the text and parsing the strings is not a problem (though it can be a drag), I'm having difficulty with logging in to the router with LabVIEW. As I said the password is "admin" and unfortunately I have to assume that the username is also "admin".
This is the page I'm trying to get to after logging in: http://192.168.0.1/user/advanset.html?sid=824643 (I'm not trying to post a link for anyone to click on, just showing the URL)
So using MikeS81's WebPageAuthentication_LV85.vi (found here: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Read-data-of-embedded-web-page/m-p/1251826#M527035) I can get the source html, but not the info from the page.
Therefore I'm trying to use MikeS81's WebPageAuthentication_LV85.vi in conjunction with the Rip Web Text.vi (sorry, can't seem to find a link to it right now, but I did get it form the NI LabVIEW forums). When Rip Web Text is incorporated the browser returns
"The website declined to show this webpage
HTTP 403
Most likely causes:
This website requires you to log in."
I don't know a whole lot about web pages or TCPIP or HTML but I'm assuming that "sid=" in the URL means I'm being granted temporary access via some kind unique ID that expires, a cookie or something. The VI is attached to this post, please let me know if you have any thoughts on it. I've changed the indicators to use the output I received as the default values (so you should be able to see what I've gotten back in the VI). It seems to me that I should be trying to rip the text before closing the TCP connection opened for authentication, if this is incorrect please let me know.
I know it may seem that I'm Frankensteining some serious crap together here, hope this doesn't end up in the Rube Goldberg thread... but I'll understand if it does.
Thanks, and have a great weekend.

Christopher:
A couple of thoughts regarding your POST VI:
The 501 error makes it sound like (and I'm just guessing here) we have a header parameter off. LabVIEW is probably just assuming a set of defaults or not even specifying the header, whereas your browser is probably turning around and re-using the headers it got from the GET requests.
I think it might be worth manually inserting the header data (you can get it from the tamperdata capture) line by line into the request (see screen shot).
Here's what looks like an/the important POST:
POST http://192.168.0.1/ajax_request?Endpassword=admin Load Flags[LOAD_BYPASS_CACHE LOAD_BACKGROUND ] Content Size[-1] Mime Type[text/html]

Here's the beginning of how we'd put in the header data:
Also, in your VI, it looks like there's a space in the request data: /ajax_request ?Endpassword=admin.
Try changing it to /ajax_request?Endpassword=admin.
The issue may just be that space, so try that first...

Code for Embedding Quicktime Movies in Web Pages-Question

I have been embedding QT movies in web pages for years. I used to use the embed and object tags, but due to the problems with the default settings of IE7, in regards to ActiveX, I recently changed to the javascript method.
I will paste sample code below, of how I use it, with the movie title change to sample: (of course I change the dimensions, depending on the movie size.)
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script>
and I put at the top of the page, right before </head>
<script src="AC_QuickTime.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script>
I forgot where I got this code. Perhaps from someone on this forum, or elsewhere. It seems to work with the default settings on most browsers.
I have a couple questions, however, regarding fine-tuning it a little more.
1) If it takes a while for the movie to load, users who open my pages see a static Q QT icon. How would one make the icon flash, with flashing text that says "Loading", so that the user knows that the video is loading? (I have seen that on other sites, and don't know how to do that.)
2)As said the javascript works with most browser default settings, as most have javascript enabled by default. But what if a user does not have javascript enabled? Could the code sense that, and if non-existent, tell the user to enable javascript? Or, if javascript is disabled, could the embed and/or object tags be activated?
3) The code above, that I got from someone, says "cache=false". That means that each time someone sees the movie, it has to be reloaded from the net, and not from the browser cache, correct? If so, why would one want it to be set that way? If it's a large movie, a user with a slower computer and/or internet connection would certainly prefer if it could play from the cache the next time, loading much faster. Is there any reason to prefer "cache=false"?
4)Is there any code that could be put in, to allow the user, if they prefer, to download the file,(perhaps with a right-click or CTRL-Click), instead of playing it in the browser?
Thank you very much in advance, to whomever can help with these code questions.

Thank you for your reply, Kirk,
1)Yes, I do have "fast start" enabled in my files, and they were made with QT Pro, newest version. So no, there is no "trouble with my files".
However, I would still like to have that flashing "Loading" icon when the file is loading, as I see on other sites. (And yes, even with "Fast Start" enabled, depending on the size of the file, the speed of the computer and internet connection, it can take a little time beforeit starts.) Anyone know how to create that flashing "Loading" icon, rather than just the static Q?
2)I just wondered if there was a way for the javascript to recognize if the user does not have javascript, and bring up a message if that is the case, telling the user they need to enable it to see the content. (As would happen if the user does not have the QT plugin installed.) Yes, I realize it would not work to include in the normal way the embed and object tags as well, I wondered if there was a way to invoke them only if the user doesn't have javascript. Perhaps impossible, but I thought I'd ask, in case someone knows of a way to do that.
4)Yes, I guess I could just put a separate direct text link to the movie file for downloading. I just wondered if there was a way to put that in the javascript, so that if someone right-clicks on the QT icon, they can download rather than view it, rather than use a separate link. That may also be impossible, but I thought I'd ask, and see if there is a way to do that.
Your question to me regarding dimensions--I forget which was the QT movie, that I took that sample from. Yes, I have some in unusual sizes. They are not normal movies. I don't have time to explain more now though, and that has no bearing on the questions I asked.
Once again, thanks for replying, and if you or someone else could help further with my questions, I would appreciate it very much.
Have a nice day!

Embedding flash movie in a web page

I have created a flash movie using actionscript 3 and an xml file with a list of images for a slideshow. After clicking publish, I can view the slideshow by previewing the html file it creates for you. However, I want to embed this flash movie in a different web page. When I try to add it in Dreamweaver, by dragging and dropping the swf file into the page, a flash placeholder is generated, but the movie does not play when previewed. It is just blank white space.
Now I watched the Tom Green tutorials on "flash the easy way" and my flash (CS4 professional) did NOT generate the AC_RunActiveContent.js files. I did find and download the file and manually added it to my Scripts folder. Still no joy.
I will note that the html file that embeds the flash video is in a different directory than the movie itself. Surely this cannot be the issue, otherwise people's websites would be incredibly messy with multiple flash videos. I am trying to put all the flash movies in their own child directories of a /flash directory to keep them neat and organized.
I am not sure what to do next. How do you make the dang thing play on a web page that is in another directory?

If you are loading content ala using an xml file, that may be the source of the problem. When you load a Flash file into a web page, that web page becomes the frame of reference for any files that the swf loads. So if you tested this where the html file was in the same folder, but then moved things into different folders, then you need to adjust the Flash to load things as if it is in the html file's folder

Embedding into a web page & background sound.

Hello,
I am looking for some advise on embedding an adobe edge animation into a web page.
It's more complex than it sounds unfortunately for me because I don't have any coding knowledge.
I have a web page with a flash version of the animation. I want to add the edge animation to the same page but only play
if the device does not have or support the flash player. So, if flash is installed I want the flash version to run. If no flash (ipads, etc) then
the edge version should play. I know many people choose the other way around but while I am learning edge the flash version is
much better so I would prefer the flash version to play primarily.
Onto the sound element. I have background music playing for the flash file (the music is built into the flash animation. I am not sure
how I can do this with the edge animation. Presummably it would need to be coded into the acutal HTML page with some sort of
HTML5 tag? But the problem I see here is that if the flash version starts to play the HTML5 version would start to play too in browsers
which support flash AND HTML5 tags.
I would appreicate any advise.
Thanks
Andrew

Does anyone know if there is an email address for Edge support? I really need to find a solution for this.
Thanks
Andrew

Embedding Crystal Reports with parameters in web page

Hi,
I have created a sample report file and configured it with a parameter field. On embedding this report file in the web page, as expected I am prompted to enter value for the parameter. After entering value and clicking OK, CrystalReportViewerServlet delegates the call to the custom JDBC connector implementation which is the data provider. However, the web page doesnu2019t show the retrieved resultset but shows a page with some text like this:
{"update":{"children":[{"children":[
{"args":{"curPage":1,"numPages":"1"},"cons":"bobj.crv.newSelectPageControl"},{"args":{"searchText":""},"cons":"bobj.crv.newSearchTextControl"}
],"cons":"bobj.crv.newToolbar"},{"args":{"displayDrilldownTab":true,"initTabIdx":0},"children":[{"args":{"isMainReport":true,"label":"Main Report","viewStateId":"1"},"children":[{"args":{"content":"\r\n
On debugging I could see, that the parameter value from the prompt is correctly passed from the CrystalReportViewerServlet to the custom Connector (i.e., the sql query is updated with the parameter value) and the connector fetches the data also.
I also tried embedding another .rpt file with few parameter fields configured (where user input values are just passed to the details section of the report for display). However on running this web page also I get the same error.
Report files with no parameter fields configured are working fine when embedded in web page.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Regards,
Ria

I would take a look at running our simple [sample application |http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/307224d2-3d11-2c10-fe86-d87bab901bee&overridelayout=true]that views reports to see if you have the issue there.

Firefox sporadically won't display flash embedded within a web page.

I have Fiorefox 28.0, running on a Mac with Mavericks 10.9.2. Sporadically, Firefox won't display an embedded flash video. I tried running Firefox in Safe Mode (all add-ons disabled). Same thing occurs - won't display the embedded flash on some webpages.
Here is an example webpage in which this problem occurs:
http://www.deadline.com/2014/04/nbcs-jimmy-fallon-and-seth-meyers-welcome-stephen-colbert-to-cbs-video/
I couldn't determine how to attach a file of a screen grab or I would have done so.
Thanks.

I can't tell how far the player gets in loading. All I see is a blank white block of space where the player would normally be loaded. I used the term 'embedded' as that seemed the correct term to use. If incorrect, that's only due to my unfamiliarity with the correct terminology of having a flash video within a web page. BTW, I neglected to mention that the same page that Firefox has problems with is displayed fine in Safari. Screen grab attached showing blank space where Safari displays a functional plug-in.

Embedding iCal calendars in web pages?

Is it possible to embedded your iCal calendars in web pages (either a .mac page or a privately owned page)?

You can publish calendars live to both .mac and webdav enabled private servers.
It becomes difficult to place other content on the same page.

Embedding .swf file into web pages

What's the best way of embedding a flash file into web pages?
After Microsoft introduce something about the active object (need
to click on the Flash file first on IE to activate it) it seems
like the best way is to use 'FlashObject'. Is there any other
better way? Thanks a lot.

SWFObject, which
used to be FlashObject.

Embedded or in-line web page in mail! Almost there but not quite.

I have successfuly made a small web page in GoLive ( one small images, an animation GIF and a short block of text to act as an extended signature) then rendered/ viewed the page in Safari and everything looks OK at this stage. Then from file menu gone to 'Mail contents of this page' which of course opens the Mail.app and I can then see the images and text embedded into the mail and not as an attachment.
Sending to myself it works fine so that when I receive it the images appear as part of the message but send out to others and they just see ? marks in blue boxes.
What have I missed. Is there something I need to put into the header?

Which options do you see enabled and which greyed out in the bottom part of the View > Message menu? If Best Alternative or Next Alternative are enabled, does choosing them fix the problem?
There is a hidden setting that makes Plain Text the preferred alternative for viewing messages. Maybe something has caused that setting to be turned ON, in which case you might be able to fix the problem by turning it OFF.
Open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>:
defaults write com.apple.mail PreferPlainText -bool FALSE
Alternatively, you could issue the following command to revert to the default setting (which should accomplish the same, since the default is to not prefer Plain Text):
defaults delete com.apple.mail PreferPlainText

Embedded PDF on web page fails to display

We have a number of PDFs that are shown embedded in IE (versions vary). This worked fine with Adobe Reader 9.5 but with 10, PDF fails to display.
Page takes a while to report error. Error:
There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again. (103:103)
I found a few other discussion similar to this in the forum but didn't find a definitive root cause.
In our situation, we found that if the user launching the web page runs Adobe Reader as standalone first, the error doesn't happen.
While workaround exists, I am trying to understand the root cause to see if we can correct this for all the users in automated manner instead of
mandating launching of Reader standalone as a prerequite step. Quite a few users using this web app.
Since launching of Reader standalone works, my guess is that some config/setup is done only after first use. I see that, for example,
reg keys are added under HKCU on first use. I don't know why first use from browser differs from first use from standalone though. Difference in
reg access? Enable/Disable browser plug-in produces different behavior so I don't think the setting is on the browser side. What other factors
may be in play here?
All ideas welcome. Thanks in advance.

Got a couple follow up questions. Postiing the response here.
1. Please send us step by step method on how to recreate the problem, and the URL of the PDF file that shows the issue.
* Write a simple console application that does nothing but starting a browser. Browser URL set to any web site with embedded PDF. I believe I used a sample on Adobe's site for last test.
2. Is everyone in your company experiencing the same issue?
* Yes, everyone can be affected.
3. Does the error show up on any PDF or just the embedded PDF?
* Only embedded.
4. Does the problem occur with Firefox?
* Not browser specific.
5. Do you have any other version of Reader or Acrobat installed on the same system?
* No, clean test box. Tested with 10.0.0 first. Failed. Then cleaned up install and installed 10.1.3. Cannot repro with 9.5.
Root cause appears to be Protected Mode. If I disable that, it works.

Opening pdf embedded in web pages hangs

Reader 10.0.1 running on Windows 7 64 bit, ever since the upgrage to Reader 10, when I try to view a web page that has an embedded pdf, it tries to open, finishes the download, then just locks up. I have run repair from the reader help menu and from control panel, and then it will work for a few pages, but eventually hangs again. The repair does not seem to be a permanent solution. Any ideas on how to permanently repair this? If not I'll need to roll back to 9.4.3.

Having similar problem.....loads about 75% then hangs. Recycling doesn't help. Can't save to a file. Try to reopen and it is called a damaged document in the Temp Folder.

Web page embedded Javascript has stopped working

Hi,
Since updating somewhere around v5 or so, some embedded Javascript no longer works, despite ticking the "Allow Javascript" box.
Was hoping that v9 would have fixed this problem, but no.
Thanks

Thanks cor-el, but not being computer literate I do not understand what you mean; neither do I understand any of the responses posted under http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resizing_oversize_window
What annoys me intensely is that there is an existing option to tick the box to a) "Enable JavaScript" and within that to b) "Move or resize existing windows".
What is the point of those tick boxes?
Do not mean to waste your or anyone else's time, but am ready to leave FF for just that simple problem. The way in which I open FF is such that I use an internal own-design web page with positions itself exactly where I want it on my large screen. This option has now been removed by FF; it works fine in IE.
Thanks to all for trying to sort this out, it is a FF problem that can surely be sorted?
