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.

HTML page within a Flash Movie?

I have an HTML page on my server that I'd like to be able to
have inside my Flash movie, is there any way this could work? I
don't want to use the external Text file method. I've been trying
to use an iframe over a Flash movie to fake it but I just get all
kinds of browser problems when I try to do that. I'd just like
Flash to be able to display an HTML page like an iframe does. Is
that possible?
Thanks in advance!

nope. this exact question gets asked here from time to time
and the answer is really just that
simple - no - but flash does support some HTML tags for text
but HTML as a language is completely
different animal from flash player.

Is It possible to load Html page inside Adobe Flash...?

Hi Everyone!
Is It possible to load Html page Inside Adobe Flash CS5.
Any help would be a great help...!
Originally, i wanted to bring in through <IFRAME> but i don't see that flash understands that.
Thanks in advance!

Not exactly sure how you where planning to display that HTML content in relation to the overall page, but given the limitations of Flash... that may just not be possible...
But, it would be a simple matter to display an HTML iframe over the top of or behind a Flash .swf... So while the iframe would not be a part of the .swf, it certainly could be designed to make it look as though it were.
Controling the stacking order or layering of content on a Web page is accomplished through z-indexing. Correctly positioned and z-indexed, the iframe could apear over the top of the .swf... the .swf in effect being the background... OR the iframe could appear behind the .swf and with a transparent section in the .swf, the iframe would appear through that hole. If there is navigation or links in the iframe, they will be blocked by the .swf though.

But this may be an option....

Is It possible to load Html page inside Adobe Flash Professional..?

Hi Everyone,
Is It possible to load Html page inside Adobe Flash Professional or Adobe Flex. Thanks in Advance.
-Vijay

probably not the way you are thinking.
flash textfields and their extensions have a limited number of html tags they can parse so, in general, html from most web pages will not display, as expected in flash.

Referencing HTML page from within a movie clip

Hi
Hope someone can help with this.
I have a simple horizontal scrolling gallery of 24 thumbnails
in Flash, the thumbnail images are loaded into the boxes using
actionscript. I would like each thumbnail to link to a html page of
my choice. There is a movie clip instance called panel with the 24
buttons inside it and on the first button as a test I've placed the
following action script:
on (release) {
getURL("team.html","_self");
When testing this movie from within Flash (CTRL, ENT) the
button links to the html file (which is in the same folder as the
SWF) with no problem. The problem is when I preview the page in a
browser and try to click on the first button nothing is happening.
I've tried it in both IE7 and Firefox with the same result.
The flash thumbnail clip is placed as a flash object into a
html page using dreamweaver.
I'm sure this is something simple such as navigating the
timeline but I've tried a few things like _root. but still no joy.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks, Jo

Try
on (release) {
getURL("
http://site.com/team.html","_self");
}

About html banner into a flash movie

I have a web site done in flash which is a main movie and
everything else is loaded into this movie, and i created a space to
put my affiliate banners. But all affiliate banners is html code .
How do i put them o show them.Thanks

Okay, so my terminology is inaccurate. Sorry, don't mean to
be misleading. This is a sample of the AS code that you can use on
the button that you place over the image:
on (release) {
//Goto Webpage Behavior
getURL("
http://www.youraffiliate.com","_blank");
//End Behavior
}

Aligning flash movie edges with jpg's in HTML

I have created a flash movie that is 766 px wide by 750 px
high. The html page that the flash movie is embedded in uses jpg.
images to fill the remaiming browers area. (so it appears to the
viewer that flash movie and html page are one seemless page)
The problem I am having is matching (aligning) the edges of
the flash movie with the jpg images. I can get it very close, but
it never seems exactly right. (The edges of the flash movie have a
gradient and some color change.)
You can view my work in progress at:
http://www.awitest.com/index_silver.html
My questions is: is there a simpler, less time consuming way
to get the edges of the flash movie line up correctly with the
jpg's in the html???
By the way I have Design Premium CS3, if any of those other
programs can help with this problem.
Thanks for any advice!

yes, is is.
you can use this link.
http://de.selfhtml.org/css/eigenschaften/positionierung.htm#position
the dicription is german, but there are no problems to use
the code, i think.
working with cs3, i use the html of flash an delete all the
java-text. it's possible to use the objekt-tag in the
div-tag.

Multiple flash movies on 1 web page?

So, I'm working on a new site. Very graphical and will have a
lot of cool bells and whistles. At first, I was creating it
entirely in flash but I abandoned the idea because I just can't
help but click the back button when I feel I need to, and doing
that takes you all the way back to the previous HTML page instead
of previous thing in the flash movie and it gets annoying fast, and
I know if it happens to me it'll happen to plenty of others. So, I
was thinking about just building it as html/dhtml with all the cool
css tricks everyone and their mom are doing these days.
The old versions was set up with one big movie for the
interface, and smaller movies for the content that get loaded in
with the loader component. Worked pretty well. So, I was thinking..
what if I still kept those content pieces and loaded them in over
the HTML, using DHTML to position stuff and the little
wmode=transparent thingy so you can still see the background HTML
bitz that need to be there. I mean, I know it can be done and how
to do but my question is, what if I want to have the menu in flash
too? and maybe the site logo animated? Or a rotating flash add at
the top that's loading in a few different ads and cycling through
each one like a slideshow? Will 3-4 different flash elements on 1
page be bad? My first guess is it will slow things down a lot, but
will it? I mean, it's not HUGE files it's more like smaller bits..
logo, menu, ad and content .. the content will mostly just be text
and some photos, nothing too fancy. I don't want it to slow down
people's computers OR take forever to load/display (which it
shouldn't). So it will be HTML pages loading in flash movies, so
the back button will finally work!
The reason I'm considering doing this is more for font issues
than anything else, and some cool transparency effects I can
accomplish with smaller files and better compatibility than if I
use PNG files
Any thoughts? is this a good idea or should I just try to do
it all with DHTML stuff? I can do it that way, i was just thinking
using Flash might be easier & better for some parts...

Yes, it is fine to do that.

No. Flash has limited support for html and is not capable of displaying html web pages as content.

I'm afraid you can't. If you were reading your HTML
documents with a
browser, that would be one thing. Browsers are HTML-reading
machines. The
Flash Player is not. The Flash Player reads Flash files.
While Flash does
support a modicum of the full HTML spec -- see "About
supported HTML tags"
in the documentation for details -- Flash does not, as a
rule, open HTML
documents.

How do I add to the HTML page containing an fla?

Hi,
My site has Flash Video that plays back in a Flash movie
file.
I want to put html text on the html page containing the Flash
movie so that if a viewer doesn't have Flash, they can see a plain
text link that sends them to a page with a Windows Media Player.
When I attempt to add text to the html page containing the
Flash movie, the text doesn't appear and my page changes background
color.
Where in the source code should I be adding my html text?
Please indicate the insertion point below.

Flash movie has border on rollover and 'disabled'

Hi,
I have a html page with a flash movie in it.
When the page loads, the movie displays, but when moused over
a dotted border (others note an orange border) appears around the
movie. As a result the user has to click on the movie to remove the
border, before any of the buttons within the movie work. This isn't
just present on my page, but all flash movies I find on the
internet.
Is this something to do with Windows XP ? I have only noticed
it since using XP ?
Is there anything I can do to eliminate it ?
Thanks in advance.

Here's my standard copy/paste response;
uh oh - here we go again - duck and cover!!!!!
If i had a nickel everytime this was asked in the past few
months i would have....let's see - go here:
http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search?q=group:*flash*&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
(the google archive of the forum)
and search for "active content".
A total of 362 (and rising everyday) returns.
Multiply that by $.5
I think I would end up with $181. (is my math correct?)
Anyway you get the point. Search the forums first - it was
just asked and answered at least twice
just yesterday. It unfortunately will be asked again today a
couple more times, and then tomorrow
and the next day and....
Most of us are simply too tired to even respond to this
anymore but we understand that searching for
the right terminology is often hard to discern.
But here's the url that has been posted here a couple hundred
times already - guess it can't hurt to
paste it again :)
http://activecontent.blogspot.com
If you search google for "active content" you will realize
just how popular this little bit of tech
news was/has been over the last 6 months - been all over
blogs and news sites for a while.
There are methods to combat this on this site (yes,
adobe.com) and all you have to do is search
adobe to find:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/activecontent/
An entire section devoted to this issue.
When you hover over any active content in IE you will see
this:
http://www.mudbubble.com/staging/ac.jpg
See the little tool tip instructing you what to do? If you
google that ("Click to activate and use
this control" or similar), you will find 2,050,000 returns

Loading URL after flash movie finishes

I have created a flash movie which i have taken into a html
page. when the flash movie has finished i want to load a html page
in the current window. What actionscript should i be using to do
what i want?

I'm far from an flash expert but off the top of my head you
could try adding this to a blank keyframe at the end of your movie:
getURL(
http://www.whatever.com,
"_self");
worth a try
