Flash Banner in iWeb

I have a flash banner that I want to put on my web page and I don't know how to do it in iWeb.
It doesn't show up in my media browser so I can't just drop it in like a movie or photo.
When I click and drag it onto the page, I just get a rectangle shape outline with the name of the file on it, but I don't see the actual file.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you

Hi There,
I have a flash movie .swf playing on a site I am working on www.systematic-uk.com
Insert html snippet
Insert the following code;
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase=" http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0, 0" width="334" height="194" align="middle"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.ckis.co.uk/flash/systematiccgi.swf"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"> <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" width="334" height="194" align="middle" src="http://www.ckis.co.uk/flash/systematiccgi.swf" allowScriptAccess="always"></embed></object>
Of course, change the location of my movie for your one and resize accordingly.
Works a treat.

Flash Banner has two hyperlink, how do i make that work in iweb?

I created an iframe for a banner. It works great. However, the flash banner has two different links depending as to when you click on it it can take you to one of two sites. When using iFrame, the new windows open within that frame. Is there a way to code iframe to open in a new window when clicked?

maybe I should be more specific.
This banner... http://files.slamcom.com/Ricard/Banner-560x120-Boule-NYC.8.html has two links associated with it. During the first half (time wise) of the loop, it takes you to http://www.fullfrenchexperience.com -- during the second half of the loop it takes you to
http://www.shop.ricardpastis.com/boutique/index.cfm
I've added this banner to my site but only successfully linking it to the first site. What code would be required for both links to open up in a new window?
I tried using a iframe, but the links open up inside the iframe banner.... I want it to open a new page.
Anyone?????

Problem with Flash Menu in iWeb...need help please.

Ok, I designed a flash menu in iWeb and successfully placed it at the top of the site. I then used the "transparent shape" method to make the hyperlinks work properly. I made sure the flash menu was in the back and the transparent shape hyperlinks were in the front. The menu works just fine for me and anyone else using Safari or Mac computers. However, people on Windows using Firefox, IE or Chrome are unsuccessful in clicking the links. They do not work for them.
Here's my website's homepage link. Keep in mind, if you look there on Safari, it will work but it does not when on a Windows computer. Any help is greatly appreciated.
http://www.platinumsportspicks.com/Index/Home/Home.html
It is clearly the problem that the flash menu is opening in front of the hyperlinked shapes but I'm not sure how to make sure they stay on front.

I don't know the answer to that one but you can use the Mouse Over and Click method I have described on this page....
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Tricks/MouseOver.html
It works in IE.
Its just a question of making up two different buttons with text for each link, taking a screenshot and cropping them and adding the JPEGs to your upload folder.
You can make up the buttons on an iWeb page and then delete them when you have taken the screenshots. I usually do this sort of thing in Keynote so that I can save them in case I need to modify them.

Space issue in Firefox related to Flash banner

I have a website with validated XHTML and CSS that displays an unwanted space only in Firefox under a Flash banner. The site has been tested in IE6/7/8, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera, AOL, and Netscape. Firefox is the only problem. After posting this issue to Experts Exchange, it was determined that the code Dreamweaver generates to insert Flash causes the problem. An expert on that site originally thought there were two instances of the object and removed what handles IE. The site then displayed correctly in all other browsers, but would continuously try to load the Flash file in IE. Obviously, that is not the resolution. I have tried inserting various IECCs without finding the right combination. -- The live site is http://www.imfgsol.com. The test page that contains code suggested by Experts Exchange is http://www.imfgsol.com/default2.html -- I would great appreciate any help resolving this issue!! Thanks!

Thanks so much for your help! Adding the param, removing the IECCs, and correcting the tag closing resolved the issue. The http://www.imfgsol.com/default2.html page now loads in IE 6/7/8 and validates.
For anyone that might have this issue, following was the problem and resolution:
When inserting a Flash banner using Dreamweaver, the following code was created:
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="963" height="113" class="imgpad" vspace="0" id="FlashID" title="Innovative Manufacturing Solutions">

The display was fine in all browsers other than Firefox. In Firefox, an unwanted space was created due to the way it read the IE code. The space below the banner is illustrated here:
By removing the separate objects and IECCs and adding the param as suggested, there is no longer a space in Firefox and the display is correct in IE 6/7/8, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera, AOL, and Netscape. The code that works correctly is:
<object data="images/IMSbanner.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="963" height="113" vspace="0">
        <param name="movie" value="images/IMSbanner.swf" />

How do I make my flash banner change frames on a timer?

Hello, I'm new to flash and I recently just made a flash banner where you can click buttons to change frames. I also want to add the ability for it to automatically change frames after 7 seconds. I've put all of the pictures on the same frame and gave them frame labels. What would be the actionscript code I should use to make this work, along with making the buttons still functional? Also, how can I put buttons to go to the last frame from the first, and first to the last, while still making them stop at every frame? I keep trying and nothing's working.
If you'd like a more in-depth look, I've provided the .FLA file here:
http://uppit.com/v/ZJOKIQ59
The easiest way to explain it would be to re-upload an .FLA file with all of the above completed bug-free, and show me how you did it. I hope I'm not asking too much with that, but I would be able then to take a look at it and compare it to my code to learn it myself.
Thanks in advance for any help! =]

Well I done some more work this time. As i had some problems uploading files I'v made these screanshots.
- On the first frame add just this:
var secTimer:Timer=new Timer(1000,7);
startTimer();
- The actual code is on the second frame:
//secTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, tik);
secTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, skipFrameT);
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playNextFrame);
function playNextFrame(e:MouseEvent):void {
if(currentFrame < 50){
resetTimer();
play();
else{
resetTimer();
gotoAndPlay(2);
prev_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, previousFrame);
function previousFrame(e:MouseEvent):void {
if(currentFrame <= 11){
gotoAndPlay(42);
else{
gotoAndPlay((currentFrame-10));
resetTimer();
/*function tik(e:TimerEvent):void {
trace("frame ",currentFrame,", tick", secTimer.currentCount);
function startTimer():void {
secTimer.start();
//trace ("timer Started");
function skipFrameT(e:TimerEvent):void {
//trace ("time stoped");
if(currentFrame < 50){
play();
else{
gotoAndPlay(2);
resetTimer();
function resetTimer() {
trace("Timer Reseted");
secTimer.reset();
startTimer();
- Remove your code for the buttons;
- And use 10 frames spaceing for the images:
2 to 11; 11 to 21; 21 to 31... and so on.
Hope this will be real help now.

Problem with a flash banner in a php includes

I am creating a site that has many pages and I made an includes file for the header of the page that contains my navigation bar, i then made a template of the page to use for all my pages.
Now I have created a flash banner that i want to play in the header of all my pages but i´m having problems getting it to show on all the pages.
Firstly I added the flash swf into my includes file and inserted the flash into the includes file page using insert flash from the dreamweaver menu (code below):
<?php $currentPage=basename ($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);?>
<script src="../Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<div id ="adBanner">

    </div>
Great the flash ad works when I load the includes page in a browser and when i look at all my other pages that have the link to the includes file the flash file shows as a grey box with F in the center, however if i load any of these pages into a browser the flash ad does not show.
I also tried doing exactly the same, adding the flash to the header of my template and saving it. However this did not update all of the pages that use the template, the flash ad would play in the browser if I load the template in the browser. (in this instance the actual swf file was in my templates folder with the template page).
The final thing i tried was just to add the flash to one of my pages just to see if it would work when i loaded the page into a browers, it didn´t and i don´t understand why as it worked on the includes page and template page. (the swf file in this case was in the file along with all the pages of my site).
It doesn´t seem that i have a problem with the actual flash banner, i just cannot seem to put it in the pages that i want to.
Any help or input in this matter will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

I don't know if this will be of any help but I have a flash rotator that I use on a few pages setup in a seperate file as well, here is the code from my include file
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="884" height="402" id="myFlashContent">
    <param name="movie" value="/Image-Rotator-V2.swf" />
    
    <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="/Image-Rotator-V2.swf" width="884" height="402">
    
     <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer">
      <img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player" />
     </a>
    
    </object>
    
</object>
I also added the following to the head section of the page the flash is used on.
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

.mov to flash banner ad via media encoder, size issues

Looking for some compression feedback, as I cannot get the results dialed in thru Adobe Media Encoder CS4.
Creating a flash banner ad, 11 seconds total, with 5 seconds of video from final cut. The size of the exported .mov is 784 KB, and I still have to hit a target of less than 60KB (yikes) on the final FLV export for the ad specs. Anyone had any luck here in these type of productions? When I convert to FLV (heavily compressed) and import into timeline of flash as embedded file, keeps increasing in size, hovering just below the 1MB mark. Without the video, the flash ad is at 20KB, so I really only have 40KB to work with.
When I open the FCP .MOV in Quicktime Pro and "export for web," I see a small file size of 4KB, could it really be that compressed?
But when I bring that 4KB file into Media Encoder, it goes over the 60KB limit.
Also, should note that final ad needs to be Flash 7 friendly...
Your input is appreciated.

Predicated on info in the other THREAD, I will now ammend my previous post:
2.) Assets - that's why I asked
3.) Project - could still be a possibility
Looks like the Bug is still in the running and gaining fast.
Have you filed a Bug Report/Feature Request with the data that you've furnished in your two thread?
Good luck,

Flash banner in a Dreamweaver Template

Hi all,
I am using one of the provided Dreamweaver Templates (CSS).
All is fine, except that for some reason it does not like Flash
imports. I can alter the template as much as I like and it will
always successfully change across the site, BUT if I try to insert
a Flash movie/banner into the template - then it does not appear of
ANY of the site files. The only way I can see the flash banner, is
if I open the template.php file in a browser - then you can see
that it is in fact there and working - but for some reason the
other pages refuse to acknolwegde it. Images / Tables / Text - all
work fine - just not flash banners. I even tried saving the banner
as a JPG file in Flash, then sticking the JPG file in the template
where the banner should - and it worked perfectly, but as a .swf
extension it fails.
Am I missing something?
Nathan

> BUT if I try to insert a Flash movie/banner into the
template - then it
> does not appear of ANY of the site files.
Because of the active content .js fix, when you insert a .swf
file into a
template, you must use a Site Root relative path for it.
Open the .dwt template file.
Double-click on the .swf in design view- the "browse to file"
dialog box
should come up showing the currently selected file.
look in the bottom of that dialog box for the pulldown to
change from
document relative path to site root relative path. Change it
to site root.
click okay and save the file, and let changes propagate.
does it show in the child files now?
[note- It may still not show during local preview because
site root relative
paths in javascript will not make any sense during local
preview- they
should work fine on the remote host if the site has it's own
domain name
though]

How to publish a flash banner without generating errors?

I need to upload a flash banner every time a condition is
verified. But I have troubles from the HTML code I use to call the
flash banner.
<CFIF #file# IS "fox">
<div><object
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="

</CFIF>
The error i receive is:
Just in time compilation error
Invalid parser construct found on line 30 at position 220
ColdFusion was looking at the following text:
=
Invalid expression format. The usual cause is an error in the
expression structure.
This error is generated by the HTML code inside the CFIF tags
because if I change the code between the conditional tags CFIF, it
works fine.
Exemple:
<CFIF #file# IS "fox">
<div>
Now it works correctly!
</div>
</CFIF>
Please could you suggest me how to resolve this trouble?
Than You,

Squashed Flash Video in iWeb

This is a stumper and I could really use a freah perspective on it.
I have been trying to get a Flash movie on my iWeb site bu using the instructions on the iWebUnlimited site here...
http://iwebunlimited.com/iweb-tips/iweb-tip-9-flash-video-in-iweb-jw-player/
The problem I have is that when I publish my changes in iWeb and point my browser to the page the movie is on, the movie plays as a litttle squashed box in the middle of the player. Let me explain...
I followed the instructions on the iWebUnlimited site to the letter. I have downloaded the .swf and .js files, placed them in a folder called "flash" on my iDisk as well as my .flv movie file and a screengrab of the same size.
I have changed all the parameters in the HTML code to point to my iDisk and the relavent files.
I have changed the video dimensions to that of my newly encoded .flv video (640 x 352 - in ffmpegx)
When I go to my movie page in my browser, I see the still shot I took as a place marker in the right dimensions. Yet when I play the movie, although the player is the size I requested - 640 x 352 - the actual movie plays inside it as a squashed box. Take a look at the screenshot below to see what I mean.
The video should fill the black areas, but whatever I do this is the result...
Here is the info on the flash video I uploaded to my iDisk and how is should look...
And here is the HTML code with the same dimensions input in iWeb before I published. I have changed my username back to "username" for this screenshot FYI...
The weird thing is - I uploaded a flash movie a couple of years ago to the same page and it plays ok - looks fine. Shame I can't remember how the **** I did it! I wondered if having 2 flash movies on the same page were causing the problem, so I deleted the old one.
Same result.
I created a new fresh movie page and tried that - same result again.
I thought that maybe each movie needed it's own set of .swf and .js files as the 2 movies are of different dimensions, each player would need to be different dimensions also....?
So I even added another set of .swf and .js files. I tried copying the 2 sets of movie files to individual folders, but iWeb didn't see them at all - it only seems to see them is they are in a folder called "flash" in my "Web >Sites" folders on my iDisk.
I was wondering even if it was down to the encoding of the video, which I did in ffmpegx. I did have to do it in a roundabout way...
In Final Cut Pro I exported a full quality QT movie - ProRes422 1280 x 720 that turned out at 5.32 GB and 12 mins 5 secs in duration.
This is not recognised by ffmgegx, looks like the ProRes codec has it confused.
So I put it into Compressor and re-encoded it as a H.264 movie 1280 x 720 that turned out at 1.72 GB.
When I put this into ffmgegx it encoded just fine, but stopped after 7 mins and 7 secs.
I tried a hundred different ways but it always stopped at 7m7s...
So I eventually dropped it onto a droplet I downloaded somewhere to convert videos for Vimeo HD - 1280 x 720. I dropped this into ffmpegx and Hey Presto - it worked!
So I now have my full length .flv movie at my 640 x 352 on my iDisk with iWeb pointing at it and the correct dimensions input in the HTML code, and it STILL comes out squashed....
if anyone has a clus what is causing this or what I am doing wrong, I will be forever in your debt!
I know this is an epic mail, but I wanted to give all the info I can......

If you are using a SWF or FLV you don't need to use the JW player assets. Just reference the file in an iFrame code....
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Website-Movie-Video/Flash-SWF-FLV.html
Adjust the dimensions of the frame to fit the movie and control bar if necessary.
This page shows the JW using the embed code and the javascript version...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Website-Movie-Video/JW-Media-Player.html
If you want to us the JW player using the javascript shown on the iWeb unlimited site, you need to adjust the player frame dimensions to suit the control bar position that you specified. I notice that this website doesn't mention the fact that the control bar position can be changed - normally "bottom" or "over". If you set the control bar to "bottom", the frame height needs to be increased. Also the javascript shown is not the latest one where you can specify all the custom options.
If you use the javascript that I employed for the second example on the iWeb for Musicians site, you can do a lot of customizing and specify flash with fallback to HTML5 or vice versa.

Problems zooming out with a Flash Banner

I have created a Flash banner for the home page of my website. Here is the link to the page I am working on: http://adirondackvic.org/CSSTest9July2012-2.html
When I zoom in to increase the size of the web page, the Flash banner rescales automatically. However, when I zoom out, to decrease the size of the web page, the Flash banner does not automatically rescale. It remains the same size and you have to hit the refresh button to get it to rescale to fit the newly resized page.
Is there a fix for this? I searched the forum and the web and have not found an answer. I put a question on this in another forum, but received no responses. I found some discussions of the issue on the web and on this forum, but I was not able to figure out how to incorporate the suggestions into my page. I tried changing the scale from exactfit to showall, as recommended, but that created a problem with the appearance of the page. (The banner no longer fit properly into the header window.) I also tried (as recommended by one of the entries in this forum) to change width="100%" height="100%" or width="100%" height="auto". This fixed the problem for Internet Explorer, but then the entire banner disappeared in Firefox.
Please help! I am at my wit's end.... Thank you. ellen
Here is the relevant code:
<div class="header">

Help with creating a flash banner

Hi,
I need some help with a creating/replicating a flash banner I
saw online. I cant find it anymore but I will do my best to
describe it.
The banner had multiple images layered on top of each other
horizontally. Each image covered the image to the left of it. When
you moused over an image the image expanded to full size while the
other remained contracted.
How can I create something with the above description? Are
there any good tutorials for something like this or maybe someone
can provide me with a few tips/tricks for doing this?
I am proficient in PShop and a beginner with Flash so the
design portion is not the hard part, just the programming/setup in
flash is what has me stumped.
Thanks in advance for any assitance.
Regards,
Mike

Update:
The banner on this template has an exact example of what I am
shooting for.

What is the best way to create a flash banner that features video?

Hi I have created a html5 video banner but I also need to create a flash banner that will host a video in it
I have created the flash banner but not sure where to start in order to add video to it. I understand the best way is to host the video file on a server but how do I get that video to play within the banner?
Thanks

You can incorporate an FLVPlayback component that automatically loads the desired video. You could also make use of the NetStream class instead of having the component. Google either one to get information on using them.

Trying to load flash file in iWeb and when I enter info in the "html snippet" box a "missing plug-in" message comes up (although i have adobe flash player in, if that's the plug-in they're looking for). Anyone have any similar problems or solution. Thanks
