Embedding Flash into a Flash page

Hey all...my first post here.
I've recently learned Flash and have had pretty good success figuring out challenges that come up...however I am stuck on one now and am looking for help.
I am designing a site for a music project that I manage. The band also uses another free site, Reverbnation, for promotions and such. The site provides a mailing list function, and you can embed an already provided "widget" onto your HTML web page that will automatically add people to your e-mail list if they choose to sign up.
The problem I am having is that the page the widget is going to be on is now all Flash. I can't figure out how to get the widget into the Flash page. The Flash page itself is really nothing elaborate.
Here is the code for the widget that they provide:
<img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://counters.gigya.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bT*xJmx*PTEyNzQyMTEwMDU3NjUmcHQ9 MTI3NDIxMTQyMTQwNiZwPTI3MDgxJmQ9ZmFuX2NvbGxlY3Rvcl9maXJzdF9nZW4mZz*x/Jm89ZDlkZTU1NWQ2YWFlN DRiMDlhMzU4MDgxZDM1OTk2ZWUmb2Y9MA==.gif" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://cache.reverbnation.com/widgets/swf/11/fancollector.swf?page_object_id=artist_708835 &backgroundcolor=EEEEEE&font_color=000000&posted_by=artist_708835" height="100" width="434" /><br/><a href="http://www.reverbnation.com/gigfinder" onclick="javascript:window.location.href="http://www.reverbnation.com/c./a4/11/708835/Artist/708835/Artist/link"; return false;"><img alt="Land Gigs" border="0" height="19" src="http://cache.reverbnation.com/widgets/content/11/footer.png?1" width="434" /></a><br/><img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://www.reverbnation.com/widgets/trk/11/artist_708835/artist_708835/t.gif"/><a href="http://www.quantcast.com/p-05---xoNhTXVc" target="_blank"><img src="http://pixel.quantserve.com/pixel/p-05---xoNhTXVc.gif" style="display: none" border="0" height="1" width="1" alt="Quantcast"/></a>
Any ideas on how I would embed this into my Flash page to be a functioning widget?
Thanks!

your published swf will be embedded in an html file. add your widget code to that html file.
you can use html, styles, divs etc to position the swf and widget.
or, if you want to incorporate that widget within your swf, you might be able to load
http://cache.reverbnation.com/widgets/swf/11/fancollector.swf?page_object_id=art%20ist_708 835&backgroundcolor=EEEEEE&font_color=000000&posted_by=artist_708835
and manage.

How to import html5 animation (created/published using flash) into a web page using Dreamweaver.

I have created an animation in Flash and published it as a html5 animation.
How do I get this into an exisitng web page using Dreamweaver?

Hi Nancy,
I am using Flash CC2014 which publishing as html.
(When I publish as html with edge animate you can create an oam file which allow the inserting of the resulktant animation into a web page)
The files produced with Flash CC 2014 are: html try.html and html.try
I was hoping I could use some way to just insert the html animation produced by Flash.

Calling a function in flash on an HTML page

Hi,
I need help regarding how to call a flash function from an HTML page. The idea is to have a link on my page (HTML link) that once clicked displays a movieclip in flash. I know i have to use the asfunction in HTML. So far I have just created my swf file with a function called showInfo. I've embedded the flash into an HTML page. I have then added a link on the HTML page as follows:
<a href="asfunction:showInfo">Link name</a>
but when I click it says:
"Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (asfunction) isn't associated with any program."
is there a piece of code I need to write in flash for this to work?
Thanks
Eugene

have your html link call a javascript function and use the externalinterface class in flash to communicate between javascript and actionscript.

Help Exporting Embedded Video Files From Flash

I am new to Flash and this may sound, well dumb but here it goes. I have taken some video files from Final Cut Pro converted them to FLV's imported them and embedded them into flash to create some banners for the web. I need to know what settings I should use to get these out of Flash for the web.
Also I need to send them to someone to look at before publishing. What would be the best format to do that in and how to do it.
Also has anyone has any experience creating banners in or online ads in a Video format like FCP and embedding them into a flash file to export them in flash for we publishing. Sorry again for the dumb question, just new to Flash.

Is there a reason why you embedded the video in Flash rather than using the FLV player?
Starting with the video, since you have the source you can create any type of format you need from that which can be used for preview or the final version depending on where it's going to end up and what is required or preferred. Flash comes into play if the requirement is to have a SWF/FLV other than some other video format, or if you have other Flash content going on at the same time besides the video.
But using Flash for this, the most stratghtforward way is to use the FLV player included with Flash (or another 3rd party player) and point it to your FLV.

Embedding a WIMPY jukebox into a flash page?

Hi, I would like to insert a WIMPY jukebox (or a section of
html if we're talking technically here) into a .swf file. I have a
flash template, and inserting the player into the HTML page is
useless and messy and troublesome.
Is there a way of inserting HTML code into a .swf file? The
WIMPY code is a brief paragraph of HTML, can I see the results of
the HTML code through flash anyway?
Cheers, Tom.

There is a great extension that will do it all for you and
it's free...it's here:

Help inserting a flash video into my web page

Hello!
I'd love some help inserting a flash video into my web page. My web page is hosted by Viviti, templated, and edited online. I can add html to it, and I have the html source for my flash video. I also have uploaded the flash file to the server. Since I am very html illiterate, though, I need some help rewriting the html script so it can be published. There are two problems- firstly, no 'headers' or 'body' allowed in the script- these are already a part of the template. Secondly, I don't know how to rewrite it to refer to the uploaded files. It's also imperative that the full screen mode functions. I've pasted the source code for the flash video here. Please help!!!
Thanks!

What you basically need to do is copy the sections of content from the code you show into the template (assuming the template already provides the <head> and <body> sections of the page. So in the head section of what you show, take everything starting with...
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
all the way down thru...
</script>
, inclusive (in the head section only), and paste that into the head section of your template.
Similarly, take everything that lies between the <body> ... </body> tags (exclusive of the body tags) and paste it into the body section of your template wherever you plan to display the Flash file.

Embedding an interactive flash into Authorware

I want to embed a flash interactive into Authorware (see:
http://www.cellsalive.com/meiosis.htm
In the past I embedded a basic Flash animation into
Authorware and it seem to work ok. I'm not sure of more complex
ones i.e. that have interactive controls etc. I assume its not so
simple as to embed into authorware. Is it the case that it is
doable, but requires some configuration/programming? Or does it
work be simply embedding the complex interactive flash into
authorware?
thanks in advance

If the flash file id published for player version 6 (or
earlier) then
you can embed it using the Flash Asset Xtra, probably in the
same way as
you have before. If it is a later version you will need to
use the
Flash player ActiveX control.

Help on embedding files into flash to be downloaded

I wanted to know if there is a way to embed a pdf file into a flash document to be downloaded by the customer. I want them to be able to click on the thumbnail version of the file to start the download of the high res version of that file. I am making an interactive cd so the files would be stored on the cd itself. I know I could do it by storing the files on the internet but I would like to keep everything local. Thank you so much for your time. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

You can't. The only way you can do that is store the files locally in your case in the CD and use the normal URLRequest method but instead of calling an http://whatever.com URL you call the RELATIVE url to your file for example if your pdf is saved in a folder called "pdfs" and your swf on the root of the CD then you would call URLRequest("pdfs/mypdf.pdf");

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

Insert an swf file into another Flash file

Hi,
I'm a newbie to flash trying to insert an SWF flash file (a game) into another Flash file. However, when I import the swf file into the library and drag it onto the frame (and insert the stop(); command onto the frame action to stop it playing the whole movie), the SWF file plays constantly, ignoring all the actionscript and button commands in the game SWF file.
When I try inserting it using the Window component, the game SWF refuses to play at all - it just stops (clicking buttons in the game work, but it goes-to-and-stops instead of go-to-and-play like it's supposed to do). The only other component I could find was called "Loader". Using this doesn't work either, it won't play any of the animation, just like using the "Window" component
When the game SWF is played by itself (by just double-clicking to open it from Windows Explorer or embedding it in a web page), it works fine.
Any help how to do this would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
I'm posting in this thread because my problem seems similar but may be not...
In my first swf, I'm loading a second swf via loadClip().
My second swf works well alone but when I try to integrate itself in my first swf I'm losing my events. My events only works on my first swf.
I'v tried your trick with _lockroot but he doesn't work for me too.
Is someone have an idea to help me ?
Thx
My code is really basic
First swf:
        var mcloader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
        var listener:Object = new Object();
        listener.onLoadInit = function (mc:MovieClip){
            main_obj.__preloader.die();
            obj[funct](target_mc, param);
        mcloader.addListener(listener);
        mcloader.loadClip(file_name, __loader);
Second swf:
    var box:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("box"+depth, this.getNextHighestDepth());
    //Draw box
    drawBox(...);
    // Event on Box, Change Alpha and show arrow or not
    box.onRollOver = function() {
        drawBox(...);

Intergrating Flash into Dreamweaver

I have two things that I have made in Flash CS4 and I want to add them to a website I made in Dreamweaver CS4. One of them is a slideshow and the others are buttons. How do I do it in CS4?

It's not really a matter of step by step, just understanding how to make web pages, which you hopefully have some understanding of. I do not have a reference to point you to for such a step by step description.
If you published the swf files, you should be familiar with the Publish Settings panel that is available via the File menu option. In that panel on the opening section, specify html as one of the outputs. When you publish the file, an html page will be created, and likely some javascript page as well (which the html page will use). Open the html page in DW and copy the Flash embedding code from it into your web page.

Creating Flash/Html Website Front Page

HI, i hope someone can help clear up my confusion.
Im creating a website in flash at the moment. I want the
first page of the site to be am HTML page where people without
flash can view the page (download flash if they havent got it) then
enter the site. Is this initial HTML page which will link to the
main flash site created within flash somehow or is it created in a
programme such as dreamweaver then links to the flash movie?
Thanks so much for any help (im new to flash so a bit unsure
of the complete process off making the site accessable for people
withouth flash and publishing to the web)
Adam

if ur using front page it easy...you don't link to individual
flash files but to html pages with flash embedded in them. you
create your flash website...and make sure you publish it by
selecting HTML and Flash in the publish settings..you embed the swf
file into a html page by opening the published html in notepad
copying the html and pasting it into front page. this html allows
the flash site to be seen. within that html there is a line of code
for an alternate page which will lead people without flash to a
different page..you can change this if u wish to one that you have
created allowing people to download flash player.
