Flash --- Dreamweaver (.asp)

I trying an old version of Flash and trying to determin if it
will be worth it to use and I've run into a problem that I don't
understand.
We have a site made with .asp. I mad a flash file and went
through the publishing with no problem, but here is where my
problem started.
I have the files saved with all of our other site's files and
am try to use a .swf flash file. When I put it in and play it in
Dreamweaver, it looks fine. But when I load the page in and try and
open the page with Explorer, no flash file appears and it looks
like there isn't anything there.
I then went to a html file that we have and tried using it in
that page and it worked fine. I have no idea why I'm having this
problem, but could someone please explain why this is happening?
Also, is there a way to convert an .asp file to a .html file?
Thank You

I believe that you can "convert" an ASP page to HTML simply
by changing the
name. The web server will no longer see that as an ASP page.
However, any
ASP code will not work and any ASP code within the page will
be interpreted
as HTML and may cause errors.

clicks on a car, they are taken to a page with details about the
car and a flash gallery. The Flash Gallery is reads the image files

Anyway, I need the pass photos.asp the vin of the car from flash.

Flash & Dreamweaver in Studio 8 - Bundled Together or Individual Disks?

Is Studio 8 complied of 3 different disks, the latest version
of Flash, Dreamweaver, and Fireworks or is each version of that
program bundled together on one disk? What's the real different
between Studio 8 and buying all 3 programs separately aside from
the price advantage?

You get two disks: A) Dreamweaver 8, Fireworks 8, Flash 8,
Flash 8
Video Encoder, Contribute 3, and FlashPaper 2; B) HomeSite+
5.5, ColdFusion
MX 7.0 Developer Edition, and Fireworks Tutorial Assets.

Problems interact with Flash and ASP

Hello people, I am beginning to learn how flash to interact
with asp, but im having problems in the execution of the file.

Flash, Dreamweaver, or Fireworks for web gallery

I'm wanting to make a nice web gallery. I do not want to use
the "create web gallery" feature found in Photoshop or Fireworks
because I want to be able to customize my design more than what's
offered in those templates.
I'm at a loss as to what Fireworks is really used for in the
first place, but from digging around online it seems like maybe
it'd be helpful for making a web gallery (or maybe just the initial
stage of figuring out the design?)
What is the best software for creating a custom gallery? I'm
assuming Flash, but then I thought maybe I could pull it off with
Dreamweaver?
I like how the images zoom in and fade out in these
templates:
http://www.entheosweb.com/photoshop_templates/flash_photo_gallery.asp
These all had to be made with Flash right? I don't want to
pay for a template - again because I want to have custom design of
my own. But I haven't a clue how to do this all, so I'm also
wondering what I need to study up in? Flash alone? ActionScript
3.0?
Thanks for any tips to lead me in the right direction.

Please refer to
your other post for replies.

Flash Dreamweaver Help!

I created a wonderful photo gallery using Flash CS3 to
integrate into my website that I am creating in Dreamweaver CS3.
I've been a good doobie and relied on code instead of design mode
in Dreamweaver. My problem is that the photo gallery I created in
Flash works fine when testing the .swf file. It contains two
UILoaders, one for the photograph and one for a graphic title for
the photograph. I am using "arrays" for the actionscript for both
UILoaders and for a dynamic text item within the Flash file. When I
bring the final .swf into Dreamweaver, the only thing that's
functional is the dynamic text. The images do not load when
executing the actionscript. I am a total newbie with this and have
been very successful with everything I've done up to this point,
but now I'm scratching my head. I've got to be missing something
and hope that someone can shine a light on my problem.

Although I have completely no idea whats happening, I usually
find its useful to publish to HTML from Flash to test. Have you
tried that?
You might also want to change your publish settings to detect
flash version and then publish to HTML so you can copy over the
detection code....?
See if that helps any otherwise - sorry!

Connecting to a LIVE mySQL database via Dreamweaver (ASP)

Hi All,
Have a bit of of an issue with connecting to my live database... I've created several sites in PHP and each time its been really easy to set up a connection to the live database (on a shared server), and work using live data... but I can't figure out how to do it when working on an ASP (vb) site!? Can anyone direct my on how to do it please? ... or direct to some documentation on the subject? Cheers!
Regards,
Dan

Sorry for jumping into the thread with a bit of an off topic question, but how do you find out what kind of a db the asp server is using? I've asked my company's web host a number of times for info/help in getting connected using Dreamweaver so I can redesign our site and I never hear back from them. It's a very specialized web hosting server set up for rubber stamp web sites. Looks like most of their customers use the online website design tool that they provide, but it is very limited in what it can do. Very limited.
They give me ftp access and I've changed what I can on the page, but with out access to the db it's hard to really change the look of the site.

IE frame around flash and ASP

HI,
Does anyone know how to remove the ugly frame around flash
when using ASP?
I know the solution when using HTML but I need to embed teh

Local videos not playing in Flash/Dreamweaver Air app

Hi there. I am having trouble playing local video from an Air app created from Dreamweaver. I have found many similar [posts, but most are about Flex and so on. I need some help getting this working form Flash and Dreamweaver.
What I did wat create a jQuery site that uses Flash to play videos. It will be packaged as a desktop Air app using the Dreamweaver Air plugin.
From advice that I got here (http://soenkerohde.com/2008/06/playing-local-files-with-air/)
I started a new Air Project in Flash as suggested. Using an Air flash app makes more sence I guess, but I still need to imbed it into an HTML framework.
Here is the code I am using:
import flash.filesystem.File;
var myVideo:Video = new Video(stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);
addChild(myVideo);
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
var client:Object = new Object();
client.onMetaData = function(metadata:Object):void {
trace(metadata.duration);
ns.client = client;
myVideo.attachNetStream(ns);
var f:File = new File("Special_Assignment_Title.flv");
ns.play(f.url);
When I run this I get the following error:
<blockquote cite="">ArgumentError: Error #2004: One of the parameters is invalid.
          at Error$/throwError()
          at flash.filesystem::File/set nativePath()
          at flash.filesystem::File()
          at videoPlayer_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()[videoPlayer_fla.MainTimeline::frame1:17]</blockquo te>
Any suggestions on how to fix my problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Instead of using the File object, try URLRequest instead:
                                        var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Special_Assignment_Title.flv");
                                        ns.play(urlReq.url);

Flash calling asp problem

hi, I have got to send sth by ASP in Flash. I wrote some code
but this doesnt work. Do anyone know what wrong?
This is what i am writing
on (press) {
form.loadVariables("email.asp", "POST");
If I just click on email.asp without Flash, I will get a
email from there. But if I use the above method to call that page,
the email wont be sent. So do anyone know what wrong?

If you want to call the asp file from flash you should do it
like this
lv= new LoadVars();
lv.onLoad(success){
if(success){
trace("file was called");
lv.emailAddress="[email protected]"
lv.sendAndLoad("email.asp", lv,"POST");
The code above is for calling email.asp, pass a variable
called emailAddress via POST and handling a response from the asp,
if you do not wish to receive a response from the asp just use
send() instead of sendAndLoad();

Need help integrating flash with asp

i am creating a dynamic site that pulls all of its content
from and access database. i would like to make the entire page in

before. does any one know how to do this ? or know of a good
tutorial? i can only seem to find tutorials for flash 8 or flash 5,
nothing for mx2004.
it seems like every thing i try doesnt work and no one knows
how to help me.
feeling very discouraged,

Flash has nothing to do with getting data from an Access
database.
You need to focus on either ASP or ASP.Net, a scripting
language for the
server script either JScript or VBScript, middleware usually
ADO or ADO.Net
and finally SQL. All of these items go together in a server
side script that
could work with non-Flash or Flash client interfaces. You
should find many
tutorials on the internet with these items as it has been
done for nearly a
decade.
You also can use ColdFusion.
For Flash, you need to learn LoadVars Actionscript class if
you plan to
communicate data in the URL Variables format or XML
Actionscript class if
you want to use XML data format. It will not really matter to
Flash what is
on the server side as it will only be sending and receiving
data in either
of those two data formats (URL Variables or XML).
If you want to look at some Using VBScript, ASP, ADO and an
OLEDB Connection
examples I use for seminars in Web database you can take a
look here:
http://www.hosfordusa.com/ClickSystems/courses/webdb/.
However they lack
Flash example but would work "as is" with a Flash example.
Once you look at some of those options, you can then form
more specific
questions for this forum and especially with using the
LoadVars and XML
Actionscript classes or the XML connector Flash component.

Flash / Dreamweaver issue

I posted this in the DW section as well.
On the home page of my site I have a flash file inserted
below a navigation bar. Every 4 seconds or so, the image swipes
over to show a new image. The problem is that when I'm using the
navigation bar above it (created in Fireworks and inserted as FW
html) the dropdown items disappear when the "swipe" action occurs.
It actual looks like it gets covered up by the moving image. It
does this in both Firefox and IE (5.2 for Mac) but it works just
fine in Safari.
Can anyone help?

Would saying "never use flash buttons" be an acceptable
response to this
question?
If not, then blast on. If so, then I commend you for your
wisdom and
adaptability. Flash buttons are a very poor choice for a
website.
