Flash banner problem

Hay I have put a flash Banner at the right side of my site [removed by moderator] its fine on Mozilla Firefox but i don't see it on Chrome and other browser including Safari.
I don't know why this is not showing. Help please.

Normally when Flash content does not appear in a web page it is due to improper embedding code in the html page. You should let Flash publish the html code for the file and copy/paste it into the html page.

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>

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" />

     </a>
    
    </object>
    
</object>
I also added the following to the head section of the page the flash is used on.

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:

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">

      <param name="quality" value="high" />

          </div>
        
        </object>
      
    </object>
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:

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.

Insert 100% width flash banner in HTML

Hi all,
i am trying to insert a 100% width flash banner in an html
page. The problem i am facing is that i am inserting the banner
inside a div which has some margin in it. This is effecting the
percentage size of the flash banner. How can i display the flash
banner in that div without the margin width effecting the flash
banner size.
(01) - <div style="margin:0px;"> <object
classid="somevalues"></object>
The size of the flash banner is perfect and when the window
is resized the flash banner fills in perfectly with the div tag and
the retains its width and height
(02) - <div style="margin:50px;"><object
classid="somevalues"></object>
The flash banner gets effect and the width is effected.
Please help....

> BUT if I try to insert a Flash movie/banner into the
template - then it

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]

Using javascript to delay flash banner from loading

I have a website built in HTML with a small flash banner. My
problem is that the flash loads before the rest of the page loads.
Is there a way to delay the flash from loading using javascript
until the rest of the page has loaded?
Thanks for your help.

It is a bit complicated but you can set a delayed function,
where you will load the flash banner:
var interval;
interval = window.setInterval("loadBanner()", 1000);
var i = 0;
function loadBanner() {
// code for banner load
it is not a best methode but it works,

Flash Banner Ad

Hi All,
I am facing a weired problem in my webpage.
I am having a html page, which embeds the windows media
player object and one banner ad. This banner ad i am getting from
another vendor.
In my page i have to call this ad like the below code.
<script language="JavaScript" src="
http://mythridpartyvendorsite.com?...">
</script>
and I have a media player that code in html as follows.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
document.write ("<OBJECT id='videoFrame_Player'
classid='CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6' height='300px'
width='400px' type='application/x-mplayer2' viewastext>")
document.write ("<para name='url' value
='http:myurl.com'>)
..............................other parameter etc
</script>
When the expandable banner ad runs in this page. When I
mouseover on the "AD" that will expand. when I click the close
button of the "AD" it stops my windows media player.
I am not sure why its happening and how its happening.
Because I flash banner ad comes from some vendor.
I did some research on this. I think when these ad trying to
communicate to the posted server, looks like its stops my media
player. Is this related to any security on flash?
If someone knows or comeacross this issue. please update me.
This is really helpful for my page.
Thanks.

Publishing custom flash banner???

Hi,
I have made a flash Banner for my friends website. It is
intended for my wordpress blog and on myspace etc. The dimensions
are 468x60 and it all works.
Trouble is I don't know how I would go about embedding it
into a profile using html or php. I know I would have to load it up
on to a server and link it from there. I've tried but I keep
getting error messages. When I looked at how the html is put
together when I put the swf into a webpage in dreamweaver I get a
bit lost.
Is there an easy fix to this problem, i.e. somewhere I
caninput the swift and have them generate the code for the desired
profile? Or can you advise where to look for a solution through
educating myself on the problem
Thanks

0k i followed a tutorial and got it up on my myspace profile.
However, I had a flv in the swf of an old style video as a
background which doesnot show in the banner. Do I have to upload
the flv with the swf?
PS: find attached the code used to embed the flash
banner

Flash banner not working

HELP!
I have a huge problem, for some reason that I can't fathom, a Flash banner isn't working in Firefox, Opera, Chrome or Safari. The only browser it seems to work in is IE!
This is a major issue!
I've tired it on several PCs and get exactly the same results, including macs. I don't know what to do!
The banner is here: http://www.techietalk.co.uk located at the top right in the header.
When I look at it in anything other than IE I just see a solid white rectangle where the animation should be. Can anyone tell me why it's not working? I've managed to secure this vital sponsorship for the site and now I'm looking bad because it doesn't work.
If I browse to the banner on my server then it displays perfectly on its own. Only when it's shown on the site do I have the problem! I've tried disabling all plug-ins but it still doesn't work. I'm totally stumped and I reeeally need this to work!

Problem solved thanks, it was me missing out some parameters. I figured it out after I'd had a break for 15 minutes to clear my head.

Flash banner not displaying correctly

I am definitly a newbie to flash. Actually just gave the free download a try on this project. The trial ran out and that might be part of the reason why I can't figure out this problem.
I created a flash banner for a website, I have it embedded and it shows up, but it has cropped part of the scene, so the whole background image isn't showing. I have tried resizing in my html, but it doesn't seem to affect the cropping issue. You can view the site here.
Any help would be appreciated!
Margaret

If you cannot edit the file due to the trial period ending, I don't know what you can do except to purchase the software, but that will be unrelated to the banner not displaying what you expect.
I attempted to look at the page you linked, but the page is not loading, at least not quickly enough for me to feel comfortable waiting for it, so I passed on that.
A Flash file will display in its entirety regardlkess of what dimensions you specify in teh html code for it, it will just distort to fill the area defined for it. So the file is most liikely displaying correctly. What your problem might be is you might have placed an image in the banner without realizing that the stage defines the viewable dimensions you are limited to, so you may need to either adjust the size of the image to fit the stage, or adjust the stage size to suit the image.
It could be due to other reasons, but there isn't enough information about the design to determine as such.

Flash Banner Looping

Hi i have made a flash banner for the top of my site.
My problem is that it transitions over to the left over and

the site.
Any answers to make it stop looping?

How to make your movie stop looping?
> Any answers to make it stop looping?
Create a new layer and name it "scripts". Add a keyframe to
the very
last frame of that layer, which should correspond to the very
last frame of
your movie.
Click inside that keyframe, open the Actions panel, and type
stop();

Flash banner design

hello everyone!
I have a nasty problem: the flash banner I designed doesn't
perform the way it should. Once customers are clicking on it, it
doesn't take them to the url. Is there a setting in Flash which
needs to be "on" or action script? The banners are part of some
networks I have no idea about. Please advise something!
Katya

Your actionscript should look something like this:
btnName.onRelease = function(){
getURL("
http://www.mysite.com","_blank");
}

.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?
