Flash Header not displaying correct size...CSS Problem?

I wanted to use Dreamweaver to build a simple one page site. The problem I'm having is that my header 715 x 150 is displaying extremely small. It appears that it is a percentage of the 715 x 150. I can make it larger, but then the area made for it gets bigger as well and consumes the page. Here is the site: http://3due.com/index14.html . If you can't view source, then let me know and I will post the code.
I'm sure it's something simple, but I've tried everything that I know of to try and isolate the issue. I'm not familiar with CSS.
Thanks in advance,
mk

Hey Snake,
You're right the expressinstall is missing. I couldn't find it in DW. I'm not sure how to locate it.
The image that you downloaded is the one on the home page and not the swf located on the index14.html page. Here is the movie:
http://3due.com/3d_header.swf
here is a screen shot of the actual size compared to the browser size, i'm not sure why it's showing this increased size in the browser. This is the file that i uploaded using filezilla:

Flash movie not displayed correctly in IE 8 on some Windows OS

Has anyone seen this problem?
I'm using CS4 to export a basic flash movie with embed tags pre scripted...
And the issue is that on some OS systems using Vista or Windows 7 and IE 8 as a primary browser, it appears that IE 8 is not displaying the flash banner completely.... its CROPPING it off... This is very strange because the banner works fine in FireFox, IE7,Opera,Chrome but not I.E.8 on some OS systems...
If you google "Flash not displaying correctly in IE 8" you'll get alot of people with the same issues but no real definate fix...
Are there any suggestions as to what i could try?
Do i need different flash embed tags? Or is this a user issue?
Please Advise as soon as possible...
Thanks

I'm sorry, i forgot to explain that I didn't upload the flash published html because it did and produced the exact same results.
The flash published still got cropped off on 1 vista os(I.E 8) running from a laptop and 1 windows 7(I.E. 8) latop os...
Its good to hear that you're able to see it clearly... however in my QA efforts, i've been asked to fix the issue or drop the flash banner all together.
I've tried every which way, i've even converted the embed tags (not uploaded by the way) to a js script and it STILL gets cropped of on 2 ie8 run OS systems...
And now i'm not sure what else to try on my end.
I'm currious if because this is an XML driven flash banner, this may be an issue? But it still doesn't explain why some people can see this in IE 8 as you can and others get a cropped banner like in my screen shot sample.
Again i invite everyone in the forum to take a look at the sample links, as i'd be curious to see who else is seeing this.
By the way "kglad" Thank you so much... please keep the suggestions coming... but everything you've suggested, i've tried.
This is very perplexing. Is this a setting issue? or is there some setting on the user side i'm not aware of? Either way, as usual... the flash developer is blamed so i must find a solution.

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 images not displaying correctly

Hi there,
First post here, but could really us the help.
I'm looking after this site: http://theacademy.me/index.htm
The previous web developer set up a swfobject image rotator which didn't work before I got here. I wanted to get it working, but now the images display incorrectly in Firefox 8 and Safari 5.1.2. IE and Chrome are fine.
What i did:
1. Commented out this in index page to tidy it up (the file it points to doesn't exist)
<script src="scripts/swfobject_modified.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
2. image rotator then displayed as it does now in Safari and Firefox
3. Un- commented the code
4. Image rotator still displaying incorrectly
5. restored index page to the last known good version, when it did display correctly
6. Image rotator still displaying incorrectly
SWfobject version is 1.5 I believe.
Also, the slideshow works fine on the local copy, but not live.
Any help would be great- please bear in mind I'm not a Flash guru- this is burning up a lot of time and I could do with some fresh eyes on the problem.
Thanks!

Hi Ned,
Thanks a lot for posting- I've been spending a lot of time checking every angle. I've managed to use the latest swfobject code as suggested to embed the video.
It's an improvement- the video now works on the live site in IE, but still doesn't play in Chrome, Safari, and Firefox. It seems as if the browsers are rendering the final picture in the rotator gallery outside of the frame.
Here's what I've added to my test page at http://theacademy.me/index4.1d.htm:
<script src="scripts/swfobject2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
   swfobject.registerObject("FlashID2", "9.0.0");
</script>
<div id="banner">
      <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="460" height="350" id="FlashID2">
    <param name="movie" value="Flash/ImageRotator/ImageRotator.swf" />
    <param name="play" value="true" />
    <param name="loop" value="true" />
    <param name="menu" value="true" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <param name="scale" value="showall" />
    <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
    <param name="bgcolor" value="#999999" />
    <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <param name="flashvars" value="movie"="Flash/ImageRotator/ImageRotator.swf" />
    
        <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="Flash/ImageRotator/ImageRotator.swf" width="460" height="350">
     <param name="play" value="true" />
     <param name="loop" value="true" />
     <param name="menu" value="true" />
     <param name="quality" value="high" />
     <param name="scale" value="showall" />
     <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
     <param name="bgcolor" value="#999999" />
     <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="sameDomain" />
     <param name="flashvars" value="movie"="Flash/ImageRotator/ImageRotator.swf" />
    
    
    
</object>
    
   </object>
    </div>
If anyone can shed some light on it, you'd save the day.

Photos do not display correct size

On photos I have synced over from iPhoto to my iPad , they all are sized properly when I do a slideshow. If I view them individually, which is how I would prefer, they get cropped slightly.. Its driving me nuts. Why would it size for slideshow correctly but not individual viewing? Is there a setting somewhere I am missing?

actually, I just checked the meta data and the images and importing as 120 x 160px even though I'm shooting in RAW NEF,
I am doing this via tether!

Harddrive is not displaying correct size

Hi,
Had my logic board replaced and once everything had been reloaded my harddrive has taken the exact same size as my back up drive. My apple harddrive is 320 gig and my back up is 300 gig but now the apple harddrive is exactly the same as the back up. It is not partitioned, just saying it is smaller than it is????? I do not know how that is possible????
Any ideas?

Hi Don
Actually it sounds like service may have upgraded your system from 10.5 to 10.6 when they replaced the logic board. Go to *Apple > About This Mac* and check which OS X version you now have?
Either way you still have the same amount of HD space, it's just that Snow Leopard measures and reports drive capacity's differently than Leopard did.

Div header tag - not displaying correctly

I thought I had resolved an issue with a div header tag, but - as per a reply in my 'text as gif' thread, possibly not!
The header contains three images; a logo, a banner (text), and a picture of a castle. These should display in a line.
When I first set it up, I realised that the castle picture was normally ending up below the other two on smaller screens etc.
So I changed the dims for my div container from min 760px/max 1260px, to a set width (960px). I then rejigged the three images so the widths were within 960px, with some to spare for the spacing (total widths of the three are 900: hspacing another 20 pixels). There is no padding/borders defined. Therefore the total should be well within the 960 width (?).
It looks fine on my PC (widescreen); in 3 browsers, using the restore down menu command (ie to make it not full screen), and by using the Dreamweaver multiscreen preview (phone, tablet, smaller desktop). It wasn't ideal (as scrolling required), but at least meant the header (and the rest of the screen) displayed correctly, ie in a horizontal line (and then sidebar - content - sidebar).
If I set my container width much smaller, most of the screen will be green (the body) in big screens.
If I rejig the dimensions, it's all a bit hit and miss (and why don't the current dimensions work?).
Do I need to define the width of the header (as well as the container)?
Help! Thank you
http://hertfordcarnival.org.uk/dev/Index.html

Hi there, I started off using one big image, but it didn't look right with regards to size and placing (ie I wanted the logo on the left edge, the castle on the right edge, etc). When you say slice, what do you mean? One image in from fireworks, and then ... ? Thanks again

Why not just use one big image then you wont have a problem of with the alignment. Certainly don't use 'vspace' and 'hspace' to position the images. If you want to use 3 seperate images start by setting them us as one complete image then slice it into 3 images. Then use the following css to position the images side by side. #header img If the total sum of the width of the images is the same or does not exceed 960px then the images should be in a nice row side by side. They will actually sit side by side without using 'float' but you'll get a small gap between them which will be added to the sum of the width which will exceed 960px causing the third image to drop onto the next line.

CSS : Website not displaying correctly in IE 7 , ok in Firefox and IE8

Hello all,
I am a newbie designing my new site with CS4. This is my first post to forum, although I have read many helpful hints while proceeding.
I will be grateful for resolving a quirky issue.
My website http://www.chezshuchi.com is not displaying correctly in IE7. IT is displaying correctly in most other browsers. The HTML validation is fine. I think there is some issue with CSS, but I am not able to find it despite spending much time. Will appreciate input.
Two images are attached. The first is the screenshot in IE 7 . The second in Firefox (IE 8 is same).

Change the embedded CSS at the head of the page in Code View as follows:

Flash not displaying correctly for only one web site

In the last 3 or 4 days I seem to have problems with the flash content of one single web site not displaying correctly from my laptop. I have the same problem from both IE (version7.0.5730.11) and from FF (3.5.8). The site works fine from my desktop system so it's not the site specifically. The site (www.transparent.com/wotd/today/spanish.htm) has an embeded flash segment that does not display correctly and thus I can't click on two of the embedded buttons. It also does not display the background pattern for the flash. I'm running flash 10.0.45.2 based upon right clicking from within the embedded flash which takes me to the Adobe page with my version info. The Adobe page seems to display fine.
As far as I know I'm not having problems with another instance of flash - only this site.
Any thoughts on how to diagnose the problem? I've not added any new programs since this website stopped working but do have some background "tune up" programs that run. I'm assuming some settings are out of wack but don't know where to start looking. Any help folks woulc provide would be appreicated.

Well, that is hard to tell. Like I said the website may have updated their technology. Just because it works with the Desktop, doesn't mean there is not a reason that the laptop might not have a problem. You have 2 different systems and
most likely different configurations.
You may want to check Tools and in the add ons for both, look for Shockwave Flash Object...ActiveX Control..Flash10e.ocx should be installed and enabled.
Also for each check C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash Right click the Flash folder and make sure for IE that the files are vs 10.0.45.2 by checking the properties.
If you have the correct Flash files and the correct SWO then, some other cause would be looked at.
It has been my experience to not "assume", but verify:-)
Thanks,

Flash Animation: Font Not Displaying Correctly

Hi all!
I am having a problem with a Flash animation in Captivate that seems like it should be an easy fix, but I can't seem to figure it out.
I have a very simple Flash animation that I developed in CS5. It previews in Flash perfectly, play correctly in Flash Player, but when I insert it into Captivate 4 the fonts do not display correctly. Capital letters are missing as well as other letters.
It's not a matter of AS2 vs. AS3 as I have already tested that. It also is not a frame rate or version issue as I have confirmed they are the same rates and the same version.
Can anyone shed any light? Anyone else had this same problem? Any guidance or suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Daniel

Hi dmendoza2,
Did you embed your fonts into the flash animation? Make sure all characters necessary are embedded.

Problems with Turkish characters not displaying correctly

A user is having problems with certain Turkish characters in particular fonts not displaying correctly (as shown below).
The two fonts (Gill Sans and Helvetica LT CondensedLight) are used for English language marketing material. Ideally, for continuity, the same font would be preferred for our Turkish language marketing material rather than changing it to a similar font.
Helvetica LT CondensedLight
Turkish character “ İ ” does not display correctly in either Word or InDesign.
Gill Sans
Turkish characters “ ş ” and “ ğ ” display correctly in Word but not InDesign.
My questions are:
1. For Gill Sans, why are the characters not displaying in InDesign but are in Word?
2. I've noticed here: http://www.webtype.com/font/gill-sans-family/#glyphs-tab that the required characters are available within the Gill Sans font. Is this because the font is newer and includes the additional characters? Would this work in InDesign?

One of the big differences between InDesign and Word is that Word will happily substitute glyphs without telling you. So, unless your installs of Word and of InDesign are using different versions of Gill Sans (which is possible, BTW) then your s-with-cedilla and your g-with-macron are actually not in Gill Sans but in some other font. I'm guessing Arial.
It's possible that you have more than one Gill Sans installed (e.g. one in your Document Fonts folder and another in your system fonts folder) that have different glyph complements. Gill Sans has been around a long time, and the version I have from the 90s has no Turkish support whatsoever.
As far as the capital-I-with-dot, you can check your glyph coverage in a variety of ways. In both InDesign and Word, you can open up a window that shows you all of the glyphs in a font. In InDesign, find it in Type -> Glyphs. In Word, it's called "Insert Symbol" and you can find it in Word 2010 by going to Insert -> Symbol -> More Symbols. I am guessing that the answer to this question is simply that your cut of Helvetica LT has no cap-I-with-dot. You'd need to pick a font that actually has support for Turkish. On WIndows, I use a very full-featured freebie called BabelMap to check font coverage. They have a Web version here:
http://www.babelstone.co.uk/Unicode/babelmap.html
but I personally prefer the downloadable .exe file.

Major Problem - some pages not displaying correctly

All,
I have a problem with some pages not displaying correctly i.e.
SE80 navigation page
F1 help
I am using XP sp2 and we have the latest version of internet explorer 7 (which I cannot uninstall as it is company policy)
SAP version is 6.4c.
I am using SAP Gui 7.10 with the latest patch 710_7.
This is making the system completely unusable for me.
I have read a few forum posts mentioning that upgrading to the latest patch version will resolve this problem, but this clearly has not worked for me.
Can someone please help, how do I actually esculate this to SAP?
<REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
thanks
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Apr 8, 2008 4:07 PM

what kind of useless answer was that? If you have no constructive comments to add please refrain.
I am a SAP developer in ABAP and its related to SE80 which I used to use primarily for editing code (i now have to use se38).
I often use F1 for hints on code etc to use and syntax so it does make it very difficult for me. If there is a more appropriate forum for this please direct me, instead of posting in gibberish english.
Max - I assume you have the same problem and it is also not resolved by the latest patch. I wonder is there a way this can be esculated with SAP?

Certain special characters do not display correctly in Firefox ( font COLOR="#1f1a17" FACE="Symbol" SIZE="3" ¬ /font ). Is there a fix?

Certain special characters which display correctly in Explorer do not display correctly in Firefox. Example: <font COLOR="#1f1a17" FACE="Symbol" SIZE="3">¬</font>
Is there a fix?

The symbol font usually doesn't work in Firefox, a website needs to use an Unicode replacement or an HTML entity to specify such a character.
