Flash Movie Keeps reloading in DreamWeaver

Hi,
I am not sure if this is a question for the Flash Forum or the Dreamweaver forum.
I have a flash movie which runs in the header of my website when you first visit it. This is good. But if you go to another page on the site and then return to the home page the animation runs again (I guess because it is reloaded as the page reloads itself). I don't like this and don't want it to run each time someone returns to the home page, except of course when they first visit the site.
How do I get it to play only once, when first visiting the site?
Thanks

Hi,
Its only on my computer at present.

Movie keeps stopping after 45 clicks

Hi,
My flash movie keeps stopping after I've clicked 45 times and
I've no idea why. There are lots of buttons on the page and when
you click them they count how many times the buttons has been
clicked and display this in a dynamic text box underneath the
button. Not very exciting I know, but very useful at school. When
I've clicked one button 45 times or a combination of buttons adding
up to 45 the movie goes white (my buttons disappear). I'm quite new
to flash so sorry if this is really basic.
Thanks,
Zoro

Thanks for replying kglad.
I've just realised what the problem is! I've only got 45
frames on my timeline and the code includes nextFrame so when it
gets to the end it doesn't know what to do. Dhurrr! I can sort that
out. Sorry to have troubled you.
Best wishes,
Zoro

Flash movie dreamweaver 8 import.

Hi. I made a flash logo for my website. I import the flash
movie in dreamweaver 8 and resize it (actually 923 width and 119
height). The problem is that there is a blank rectangle above and
under the flash logo-obviously the blank flash stage. In flash i
made the logo in the centre of the stage. How can i delete the
blank spaces of the stage and keep my logo and import it to
dreamweaver 8?

The movie has to be design with scaling in mind to maintain
ratios.
Scale it in flash and export the 1:1 size so you don't need
to do it in DW

Flash Movie will not display in Dreamweaver

A movie that I created with Flash CS6 will not play in a webpage that I created in Dreamweaver CS6. When I select "Live" in Dreamweaver, I get a prompt to download the Flash 11.7 player. I've downloaded this player several times, and the movie still does not play in DW. The movie displays when select play in Flash.
How can I get the movie to play in Dreamweaver?

More to the point: Does it play in any browser on your system? If not, you may have to fix that first. In nay case, ask your question in the DW forum and provide more details like soem system information to begin with...

Centering a flash movie within Dreamweaver cs3 on Y axis

I have published a movie in Flash cs3 which has generated an html document however the Flash movie is not automatically centered I have attempted to centrally align the movie within Dreamweaver cs3 by adding:
<center> after the opening body tag and </center> befor the closing body tag
This method has centered on the X axis but not the Y axis
I would have put in a table or a div tag, but when I open the html doc in Dreamweaver I have no visible repressentation of the Flash movie in the design view as I would have if I had created an html document from scratch and draged the movie onto the page, all I can see is the "get flash" hypertext and some other text. I did actually experiment by creating a div tag and dragged my movie into it but ended up with two movies one sitting on top of the other when I ran it in a browser lol. I'm quite intimdated by code and much prefer to work in the design view (wysiwyg and all that) which is quite restricting.
Any advice for centering on the Y axis would be much apreciated, Thanks in advance, Dave

I don't believe there is code to prevent this from happening
on a client computer. The default is enabled my Microsoft, what
should happen is a yellow bar should appear at the top of the
browser which will allow you view the content.
What might work is to use a program called Zinc by a company
call Multidmedia Limited www.multidmedia.com. Search the site for
samples, one of the samples is a Flash Browser this will run Flash
a browser that you can use. You will need to change the URL a bit
in the Flash code but it's very clear on how to do this.
What this will do is run your web site in a Flash browser I
did a quick test and I did not get any errors. The program will
create an EXE file. I also believe they have a MAC version if you
need one. With a simple "Autorun" call on the CD-ROM you could have
this up and running in not time.
Just be careful of how you call the pages. Since the web site
is not running from a Web server you need to make sure that your
links are local and not Site Root. The best way to test is to
disconnect your computer from your internet and see how it runs.
You want the CD to be self-contained and not have to get content
from the web (your end user may be on a laptop and not connected).
Good Luck

Why does quicktime 10 keep reloading movie and won't quit?

When I try to quit quicktime after watching a movie, it just keeps reloading the movie. I've tried force quit, and clicking on file to quit, but it keeps reopening. I'm using Firefox, so I'm wondering if that has anything to do with it?
Any help would be apprecitated!

Hey there AmandaJoelle,
It sounds like your Quicktime application is quiting unexpectedly. I recommend the following article to help troubleshoot possible issues with 3rd party plug-ins, named:
Multimedia applications may quit unexpectedly with some third party QuickTime components

Centering flash movie top and bottom in dreamweaver?

Hi all, I'm a novice user of dreamweaver.
I've placed a flash movie in dreamweaver and centered it left
and right but how can I center it top and bottom so it
floats?

Not too sure what you mean exactly by "so it floats." But
I'll hazard a
guess that you want your video to appear inside a
semi-transparent lightbox
that appears to float over the page content beneath it. If
so, have a look
at FloatBox.

How do I center my flash movie in dreamweaver

Hi!!
I currently have a behavior assigned to a slice I made in
imageready. In dreamweaver I assigned a pop up browser
window to it...it will be a link to a flash movie(.swf) I
made, but I don't know how to alter the code to make the browser
window centered on the screen!! Right now it opens on the top of
the screen.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance!!

Thanks Gorka,
I looked it up and found this useful summary:
http://probertson.com/articles/2006/12/14/deep-linking-flash-application-states/
However, I'm now trying to figure out how write the flahs
vars so it can see what section / folder the page is in so that the
swf knows to play the same frames for both
swinsidelodge-hotel.co.uk/pages/hotel/awards.php and
swinsidelodge-hotel.co.uk/pages/hotel/guest-comments.php. So
basically it doesn't look at the last bit of the url but the first
bit... I would like the flash vars to be dynamic so that when the
client adds a new subpage in one of the sections the swf will still
know which frames to play.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Konrad

- In dreamweaver I add an .flv file to play on my web page.
- When previewing from dreamweaver into Firefox or Safari the movie shows up and plays just fine
- The entire site is uploaded to my FTP ( hosted by godaddy ) and when I check the page the movie is gone. If I right click on the are where the movie is supposed to be, it says "movie not loaded"
I have tried almost everything I can think of. This site is for a client and I could really use any help. here is the link to the page. If someone out there can help and needs more than the link supplied, please let me know.
Thanks in advance, Jay

Dreamweaver embedded flash movie - Safari problem

I have 3 flash movies embedded on a page using dreamweaver. Firefox plays either of the 3 no problem, Safari Only plays the first one.
I am using the Clear Skin 2 Controller. The ID tags I'm using are FLVPlayer1,2,3... JS script folder is uploaded and contains the AC_Active scripts.
Obviously I'd like to get this to work in Safari. Any thoughts???
Thanks

From the reading I've been doing since posting this, I am beginning to think this is either a QuickTime plugin or flash plugin problem with Safari. I am running osx 10.5.6 and Safari 3.2.1 - I was hoping for an easy page code fix.

there is none of such commands.
I did reply to you in other forum, you need 3rd party tools
for it, otherwise there
is nothing you can do.
What is the purpose of posting if you don't check replies ?
Just wasting participants time.

Flash Movie Doesn't Load in Dreamweaver

I'm trying to center my flash movie withing a 3 row table in
an HTML file that has the "Flash Detection" javascript embedded
within it. I'm really not sure if I've put the table formatting
HTML in the correct place or not. When I test the movie everything
is fine but it doesn't load online. I'll attach the code to this
post. The website is www.elkhornpeakcellars.com if you'd like to
see what this code currently produces. Thanks

I don't see any html table related tags in your posted
script, or in the url
page source-Perhaps you found an acceptable solution--your
flash appears OK
