Flash slideshow in header

Hi, I have put a flash slideshow in the header of a site. The
slideshow is on the header of every page in the website. It
automatically plays continuously, the photos slowly blend in and
out. It's good because it showcases the client's product.
But is this considered bad practise? is there any reason not
to do this? I have put an image in the background of the div
containing the slideshow in case the user doesn't have the flash
player.

I don't think it is a bad practice. My only suggestion is if
this is your header on every page that you at least have the title
of the company in that Flash animation just because there is
nothing else above it.
The only thing that would make a Flash banner for every page
bad would be if the size was too big. What size are you talking
about right now for your Flash banner?

How can I get a Flash Slideshow to show in a browser?

Running Mac Leopard, CS3. Created a simple Flash slideshow using the Modern Photo Slideshow Template. Placed into DW page as dynamic Flash element. Slideshow is 2 photos, and uses manual buttons only. When viewed in DW preview only the first frame shows and buttons don't work (when viewed in Flash preview, it works as expected). When viewed in browser, nothing shows (although the space is visible), unless I turn off Javascript in the browser; then the first frame shows but nothing else works.
I've tried this with 4 different browsers and DW, and all work the same way. What am I missing? Any help appreciated.

If turning off the javascript makes the file at least appear, then that part of the problem likely means the AC_RunActiveContent.js file is not where it needs to be (if it is not coded directly into the html page). In the head of your html page should be some indication of where that file needs to be (if it is not coded into the head section directly). Turning off javascript is forcing the <noscript> section to load the file.
As for nothing working anyways when you view it in a web page, it may be because of the location of the file. Your code indicates that the swf is located in a folder named photos. If that swf loads the images dynamically from that same folder, then the problem arises when you load the swf into a file in a different folder. Once the swf is planted into a file in a different folder, that folder becomes its frame of reference for loading content dynamically. So if the swf originally loaded files using targets like...image1.jpg, image2.jpg, etc.... when it is placed into parent folder's file, it needs to target them as if it actually lives in that folder using... photos/image1.jpeg, photos/image2.jpg, etc...

Dreamweaver CS3 Flash Slideshow problems

Hello,
First off, my name is Mike and I would really appreciate anything that you can do to help me.
I'm attempting to use Dreamweaver CS3's Flash Slideshow on a site that I'm building for a friend and I'm having troubles. I have two major issues:
1. I've uploaded my page to a test folder located on my own site.
http://www.mikebailey1979.com/NoahTest/Main.html
As you can see when you go to that page the Flash Slideshow is not appearing. I've attempted to figure this issue out as much as I can, but I'm not getting anywhere.
Using Dreamweaver to test I've deleted the AC script and it appears exactly like how it does now that it's live, so I believe that the problem lies in the Slideshow being able to find the script. What I don't understand is that the AC_RunActiveContent.js is in a folder titled '..Scripts' (which is located in the same 'NoahTest' folder as the 'Main.html')and there should be no problem with it sourcing the Script.
I'm perplexed as to why it's not reading the .js file.
2. When I preview the site in my Dreamweaver Preview it works fine, except for the fact that it looks like it's padding the size of the pictures.
I have all of the dimensions specific to the size of the slice in my site. The slideshow should be 924x668 to match the slice exactly, so that's what I told it to be in width and height. I've turned all borders to 0, frame thickness to 0, and I've even tried to add a command to change cell padding to 0, all with no effect. I've made a still screen capture for you to see my problem.
http://www.mikebailey1979.com/NoahTest/WhiteBorderProblem.jpg
I've left the Background White so you can see how it's not sizing the Slideshow correctly. So the White Border isn't really a border, but a sizing/spacing issue. I don't know what could be causing this.
If you could help me with one or both of these issues I would be so grateful. Thanks for your time.
Respectfully,
Mike

So, bemdesign, you're not seeing the white padding-like effect that I snapped a screen shot of? See here:
http://www.mikebailey1979.com/NoahTest/WhiteBorderProblem.jpg
I've tested the page 'Main.html' that I have live right now using Firefox, IE8, and Safari, and it's still doing this padding issue for me (if that's even what it's supposed to be called).
After a little research I found a post on another site where tons of people are having the same problem as me:
http://brianchau.wordpress.com/2007/07/17/where-is-the-flash-element-in-dreamweaver/
The very last post someone mentions that they fixed the issue that I'm experiencing by adding div tags specifying width and height. I've tried implementing this, but since I'm somewhat novice with coding still I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly. Adding the div tags in various places seems to have either no effect or it changes the w & h values of the entire page, both of which not being my intention.
Can anyone here who is more advanced at coding than me who can tell me the proper way to implement the div tags in my situation?
This is the code for my page:

Flash Slideshow Feature: Help?

I am having trouble with Dreamweaver's Flash slideshow
feature. All the Flash elements work properly (as I have set them)
except the *imageLinks* and *imageLinkTarget* options. Regardless
of what I enter (or leave blank) the resulting Flash show makes the
images clickable with www.adobe.com being the linked site. I don't
want any links on my slideshow but I cannot get rid of this feature
even when my elements panel indicates no (or other settings).
Help?

I too have been having problems with the ImageViewer. I have
posted a question in this forum about how changing the
ImageUrlTarget actually does make clicks on the slide show image
open a larger image, but not in a new window, even though this
parameter has been set to "_blank".
I believe the problems with the ImageViewer may be caused by
how the in page Embedded Code and SWF relate. Specifically, it
seems as if you need to re-do everything from scratch, then save
the file/web page to get it to work. It seems like unless a new
Flash Movie (SWF) is built, none of the changes stick. I have not
been able to confirm this. I WISH A FORUM MODERATOR WOULD LOOK AT
OUR POSTS. Thank you.

Anyone with a LR flash gallery that starts with slideshow in play mode?
Can it even be set to do this?
The only code in the style.xml that looks like it might be realted is line 12 <playOptions playMode="pause"/>, changing that to "play" does nothing.

Can I make an image display instead of flash slideshow on explorer with high security?

I am a total flash beginner. I created a simple flash slideshow that I want to appear on my website. It works fine in firefox., but when viewed in explorer with high security, nothing displays unless the viewer specifically allows it. The slideshow is very prominent, and the site looks very bad when only an x shows up. Is it possible to have a static image display in place of the slideshow, and then have the slideshow start if the viewer allows it? Is there any other way to get around this?
Thank you for any assistance.
EJ

Have you tested it with IE online or only locally? Locally IE will usually prohibit displaying Flash content.

Need help switching Flash slideshow

I admit it, I need help!
Here is my problem, I want the links on the left to change the Flash slideshow on the right when clicked.
I want to stay on this page, so only the Flash slideshow changes.
This is the site I'm working on.... http://www.hwas.com/A-events-page-3.htm#
I am using CS4.
HELP!

Shouldn't matter what version ... that hasn't changed much and is done pretty much the same way as long as I can remember. Which seems to be getting shorter and shorter all the time.
Anyways, nice site though. Well done.

Embed Flash slideshow -- which of these ways is best?

Hi,
I am using SlideShowPro with Lightroom to make Flash slideshows. The SlideShowPro documentation suggests two different ways to embed the show into HTML pages (see below). I am too much of a novice at this to understand the difference between the two methods.
I am curious whether those of you here who do understand the difference can comment on whether one method provides any advantages or disadvantages over the other or whether they both accomplish the same thing equally well.
Many thanks!
John

Hi Hans,
Sorry.... I should have done that in my original post.
Test pages using both methods:
METHOD 1:

METHOD 2:
http://www.johnblaustein.com/portfolio/pages_not_used/home_embed_test_bob_method.html
It may be that both are equally good, but since they are different and I don't understand the differences, I thought I'd ask.

Looking to Download Leopard Patch File for XML Flash Slideshow Maker?

Hi I was told that I have to download and install the Leopard
patch for the extension XML Flash Slideshow to work properly with
its style wizard (it isnt loading at the moment). I cant seem to
find it. Is there a source where I can download it.

Is the patch you're talking about for Leopard itself, or for
the extension? If the patch is for Leopard, I'd assume that You'd
have to get it from Apple, but I don't know where to look for that.
If the patch is for the extension, then you probably need to go to
the developer's site to see if the patch is posted there, or
contact the developer directly to see where this patch may be if
indeed it is necessary.

Problem Integrating Flash Slideshow

Hi there, I just found a Flash slideshow that I liked and
tried to create a template page with it. Everything works fine;
however, the Flash slideshow is only incorporated in the page after
a line break. I see the <p> tag that causes the show not to
be inserted flush after my main navigation menu; however, all my
attempts to remove it cause the show to display.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a million.

The slideshow is going to run locally on the computer and the HTML-page (or RSS-feed if that is easier) is recieved from the company´s web-page. I'm totaly new to flash, and I would be very grateful if anyone knew any way to do this. Is there any simple string I can use, like URLloader?
Thanks in advance!
Franz

Linking flash slideshow into HTML?

Please excuse me if this is a very "noobish" question, but is it possible to make a flash slideshow using 4 pictures,
but have each picture linked to a webpage? A family friend just got me a copy of Flash Pro CS6 through his company but I have genuinely zero experience with flash (Just HTML and CSS).
I set all 4 images to the same size. I realize I could do this in HTML, I'd just rather get some flash practice in.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Yes, you can create the images as objects and assign code to them to have them open html pages. If you are using Actionscript 3 you want to look into using the navigateToURL() function for linking to web pages.
