Embedding a Flash movie on a secure page

Hi,
I've used the Dreamweaver CS3 wizard to embed a Flash movie
in an ASP page and it works fine.
However, when I move the page on a SSL connection the Flash
movie won't display. If I change all the
http:// references to https:// in the scripts
(like I saw on an old post) I only get a white box instead of the
movie.
Please see the attached bit of code.
The old post I read was referring to an old version of Flash
but I doubt that it would make a difference?
Thanks.

Has the Scripts folder been uploaded and pathed properly?

Cannot watch flash movie on IE

Greetings Everybody!
Here I have a question about my flash in IE. When I tried to
open an online link embedded with flash movie, I can not see any of
them. I am quite sure flash player 9 was installed properly. Just
want to know whether there is any other settings(flash/IE?) to be
modified?
Below is an example:
http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/about/
I can right click movie, but the "movie not loaded" is grey
and only "About Adobe Flash player 9" is valid.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Did you look in the video app.

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

Flash movie embedded in Acrobat (Intel Mac)

I use the slideshow feature in Acrobat to give presentations.
Maybe that's a crazy idea, but anyway, I do. I have an Acrobat
slideshow with an embedded Flash movie that used to play very
nicely.
Now I've switched to an Intel Mac and Flash 9 beta. When I
play the slideshow, Acrobat gives me an error that it can't play
the movie, and then it wants to take me to download an additional
player. Okay, fine. But the download page it takes me to is for
QuickTime Pro. Will that really help? Why won't Flash 9 beta work
with Acrobat? I don't see any standalone player in my download...
that may have something to do with it.
Anyway, I would have hoped for greater integration with
Acrobat now that Flash Player is an Adobe app. How to bridge this
gap? Matt.

I suggest you post your question on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac products, as it's their software you're having issues with:

Opening maximized window from embedded flash movie

Hi!
I need your help!
I have a html file with a flash movie-menu embedded into it. I'd like one of the buttons to open an external html page strictly in a new maximized window. It does not matter if the new window has toolbar or not. I want it to open a new maximized window (not the full screen thing) onclick.
How can I achieve this?
thank you!

use the javascript window.open method to open your popup and set the page dimensions.
you can use getURL or navigateToURL() to execute a javascript function or better use the externalinterface class to call a javascript function in your embedding html file.

Dreamweaver embedded flash movie - Safari problem

I have 3 flash movies embedded on a page using dreamweaver. Firefox plays either of the 3 no problem, Safari Only plays the first one.
I am using the Clear Skin 2 Controller. The ID tags I'm using are FLVPlayer1,2,3... JS script folder is uploaded and contains the AC_Active scripts.
Obviously I'd like to get this to work in Safari. Any thoughts???
Thanks

From the reading I've been doing since posting this, I am beginning to think this is either a QuickTime plugin or flash plugin problem with Safari. I am running osx 10.5.6 and Safari 3.2.1 - I was hoping for an easy page code fix.

Embedded Flash movie locks up Browser

It doesn't seem to matter which of the top three
browsers I use, but most often when you go to
a website page that automatically (or not?)
launches an embedded Flash movie, a little
window pops up inside that embedded movie
asking me to click Allow or Deny.
But NIETHER is clickable, the browser is locked,
nothing can be clicked and ALL other tabs are locked
and cannot be clicked either.
I have to hit CTRL+ALT+DELTE to kills the
browser in Task Manager. .A HUGE annoyance,
that comes unexpectedly because you don't know
when an embedded movie will be on the next page
you click.
How do I stop that Allow/Deny message popping up??

Green screen is usually an indication for some incompatibility with the graphics driver, although turning Hardware Acceleration off should prevent that from happening.

Dailymotion embedded flash movie not working anymore

I cannot seem to get Dailymotion embedded flash movies working. The movie is just a black screen. The same embedded movie on the same webpage works in windows. (Non-embedded) movies on the official Dailymotion site still works though.
This happened only recently. I thought maybe it was a flash 10 issue, but after rolling back to flashplugin 9, the problem still remains.
Does anyone has the same problem?

Usually when a browser has an issue playing a Flash file it is due to the embedding code that is used in the html page. Can you compare your code to another page's code to see what differences there are? You should let Flash generate the embedding code rather than using some other software to do it if that is what you did. Just have Flash publkish and html page, test that page in your various browsers, and if it works, copy/paste that code in place of what you have now.

Embedding video in a flash movie

I am trying to embed a video (.wmv or mpeg) into my flash movie and Whenever i click import video and select my video it says that it is not supported. I have looked online and it says that flash should support these file types. It allows me to choose a skin and everything for the player but it will not play when I put it in the timeline. Help please

No they are not. The pages are withing a folder called
"Pages", and the FLV files too. The main book file that calls the
pages is on the root folder. I'm not at home now, so I will have to
wait until I can test this, but you think this might be the issue?
Thanks a lot for your input, I'll let you know as soon as I
check that out.

Embedding an HTML page in a Flash Movie

I am trying to embed an HTML page in the center of a Flash
movie and I was wondering if this is possible, and if so, what is
the code to do so. I want it as a small box in the middle of my
SWF.

You can add HTML formatted txt to a TextField or a TextArea
Component. This only allows for simple things, a href, b, u, i,
p... But for a full HTML capabilities you may want to look into a
DIV container that sits on top of your flash object using CSS
styles.

Embeded Flash movies in Flex app

Hi,
Flex noob with no real Flash experience. I have successfully
loaded a Flash analogue clock swf file into an app I'm
experimenting with in Flex. I used the image tag and is works well.
I would like to also embed a Flash movie which is a news scroller.
This movie calls in an external XML file as it's text source (who's
content I change dynamically with php) and the original movie was
wrapped in some html which passed in some 'param' parameters. Can
anyone explain how Flex handles Flash movies like this?,
many thanks,
Mike

I found a solution to my problem so I thought I'd answer my
own question here for the good of others who may experience the
same issue. When using Flex on your local machine (localhost),
security precautions inherent in Flash prevent the movies from
showing up in Flex. Once I tested on the production server the
movies showed up fine. The problem was nothing to do with the
param's being passed in and Flex did not need any of the info from
the html wrapper as far as I can make out,
Hope that saves another newbie from some hair pulling,
cheers,
Mike

Hi users,
Thanks for reply.
Actually the problem is -
For portrait dimensions are -
width 20
height 30
for landscape , obviously it will be
width - 30
height - 20
Thus , for second page - table width is 20 while page width is 30 and so 10 cm space remains blank on right side of page
user says that right side should not be blank, rather you extend table width to whole page width.
thats where the problem is

Rendering Div contents in a flash movie

I have a webpage containing 2 DIV containers hidden using CSS. The site has a Flash Movie embedded. I want to render the content of these hidden DIV containers from within the Flash movie.
I'm using CS4, is this possible? and how would i go about doing this?
Any help would be much appriciated. Thanks for your time,
Tony
HTML
<div id="sectionone">content</div>
<div id="sectiontwo">content</div>
CSS
hide sectionone div and sectiontwo div
FLASH
Display sectionone within flash movie when requested

I would look into the ExternalInterface class.
ExternalInterface allows you to communicate directly to javascript on the page. To make this work you would have the actionscript trigger a javascript function that then returns the requested div value.
Something like:
var div1String:String = ExternalInterface.call("getDiv1");
trace(div1);
|| In Javascript block on page ||
function getDiv1()
return document.getElementById("div1").innerHTML;
