Flash SWF not appearing in RH

I am using TCS 4 with FM 12 and RH 11.
I have an animation built in Flash and published to a SWF file.
The animation is added to a FM doc. Publishing to PDF shows the animation as expected.
I link an RH project to the FM book and the animation is missing. There is an empty frame where the animation should be, and what is in the frame is a blank PNG with a made up name (i.e. filename004.png). I can add the SWF file manually into the frame but it gets wiped during the next update. I can turn off updates but that defeats the purpose of Single Sourcing. There is no setting I can find in RH to manage importing media files.
Any help?

Yep, anchored frame.
Adding baggage files did not help.
Embedding or linking within FM did not help.
Starting with your suggestions I did a little testing and found the problem. There are, in fact, 2 SWFs in the one frame, and that was causing RH to give up on the frame entirely. If I only put a single SWF in the frame, it seems to work.
I went back into Flash and glued both SWFs together to make one, which has solved it. However it would be interesting to know if there is a way to have 2 SWFs in a single FM frame.
Thanks for the help.

Cannot upgrade adobe flash player (failed to initialize), shockwave flash does not appear as a plug in

various web sites stated that I needed to update adobe flash player. I clicked on link and followed instructions, then received the message "installation encountered errors - failed to initialize". So far, I have uninstalled previous versions of flash player and checked my plug ins. Noticed that Shockwave flash does not appear in my plug in list and adobe states that this needs to be active for their flash player.
I am on Windows XP and Firefox version 8.
Thanks.

CS3 Flash swf not visible on webpage

Hi,
I'm working in Dreamweaver and Flash CS3. For some odd
reason, Flash swf files are not showing up on my webpage. I never
had this issue with MX2004.
I uploaded the java script (new in CS3) but it still shows a
blank area -the swf dimensions - on the page. It previews fine
locally but not from the server.
please help.
Jeff

Sorry to see your use of the DW pop-up menus with templates.
You know that
they are not compatible with them, right? Also, you should
read this
(written by the person who adapted that code for Macromedia
to use) -
http://www.losingfight.com/blog/2006/08/11/the-sordid-tale-of-mm_menufw_menujs/
Also, your template doesn't appear to have been properly
made, since there
is no editable region around the page <title>, nor is
there an editable
region anywhere in the head of the page.
Finally, when I browse to this location -
http://www.worldofgranite.net/photogallery.swf
the Flash file loads, but it doesn't function. This means
that there is
something wrong with your Flash file itself, not with the
page, other than
the comments above, that is.

Flash menu not appearing in Captivate 4

Gentlefolk;
I am evaluating the Captivate 4 trial version and ran into a problem.
I cobbled together a quickie menu in Flash which works fine in C4.
However, seeking a more elegent solution, I created another menu using a Flash menu generator (Antssoft) which works fine in a browswer and in a Flash player, but does NOT appear in C4. I see a Flash bounding box on the page, but when viewed in browser mode or by a standard preview, there is just a blank page.
I have tried variations on my theme with the menu: changing the filename to .flv so it could be imported as a Flash object, I have used the original .swf extenstion and imported as an animation, but all with the same results.
Suggestions? Is Captivate a beast in which one needs to build any type of menu within a Captivate project itself,and it really doesn't like external menus?
Seems odd..but possible....
Thx!
Don

What do you mean cobbled together a quickie flash menu?
Was it something you actually built in flash to control the captivate swf, such as an animation you placed on the stage or a widget object you built?
Yes...Captivate is a beast, well at first. There are only so many variables/functions you are allowed to play around with, although with some more digging you may be able to find some more in the class files for captivate.
I am not sure if you are stil in need of help with this or not, let me know.

Firefox Embedded Flash swf not shown in asynchronous desktop

Hi all,
in a jsp I embed a binary property of a content node that includes a flash .swf file. All that in an asynchronous desktop, using Firefox.
I use the follwing code:
"<embed scale="exactfit" quality="high" menu="false" width="600" height="400" hswLiveConnect="false" src="<%=myPropertyUrl%>">
When the page is loaded by "normal" browser request, the flash animation inside the jsp renders as expected. After click on an url (<a> ....</a>) inside the same JSP the portlet content refreshes (via Ajax request), only the flash disappears. After F5 it's back agian.
The problem does not exist with IE!
How do i need to handle this for Firefox?
Thanks for help.

Firefox uses the object if there isn't a classid to specify an ActiveX control for IE.<br />
You didn't specify such a classid (classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"), so there is actually no need for the embed in this case.<br />
As jscher2000 posted above, an object tag only works in Firefox if there is a data attribute present (copy of the movie param) to specify the Flash file and a possible MIME type.
<pre><nowiki><object style="width:420px;height:272px" data="http://static.issuu.com/webembed/viewers/style1/v2/IssuuReader.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" >

Flash piece not appearing on macs, help!

my client says the flash animation on the following page is
not appearing on her mac, can anyone check it? maybe tell me the
problem? please!!!
http://www.l3hm.com/anim_test3.php

You're welcome. It's how I learned, too.
Think of it this way. The final page assembled by the server
and uploaded
to the browser can only contain a single set of properly
terminated <html>,
<head>, and <body> tags. This means that NONE of
those tags can be present
both in the parent page and in the include files.
Furthermore, if you want
to work with DW, you cannot have any of those tags in the
include files,
although it is theoretically possible to have a <head>
or <body> in them.
DW will barf if it sees that, however.

and the other being the issue where IOS can return the prompt before it's done unpacking the files
Ok, now what EXACTLY is the appliance and IOS version? The only time I know of this bug is the Metro Ethernet (ME) switches and when the current appliance is upgraded FROM an IOS version 15.2(1)S.
But there is a "workaround" which Cisco doesn't want to publish (don't ask me why not): Use "archive tar /x" and, optionally, delete the old IOS sub-directory.
Personally, I wouldn't recommend anyone using the "copy the BIN file" method unless you know what you are doing or you've put extra measures in place. The "archive /x tar" and/or "archive download-sw" was developed so that it could be automated and the operator can see the result at the end. The "copy the BIN file" method doesn't give anyone a result whether or not the file was copied or not or was the file copied completely.
Regularly, I would upgrade our switches (2960/2960S, ME-3800X, 3560E/3560CG, 3750X) fleet using the "archive download-sw" method and I don't use scripts. I just copy-and-paste the command. So far, since 2009, I've "lost" only 6 switches when I upgraded the switch to upgrade the wrong file (another IOS bug on it's own) and I had to physically show up and upgrade using ROMmon. Every time I would upgrade, about 900 switches (some in a stack), it would take me about 4 days. Even though I work with three guys who's very good at almost any scripting but we've come to a unanimous conclusion NOT to use scripting.
Moving on, if "copy the BIN file" is still a preferred choice, I would like to know how do you go about verifying the file was copied completely? Whenever I resort to the "copy the BIN file", I ensure the file copied is complete by verifying the MD5 hash value against the MD5 hash value found in the Cisco website. Trust me, adding this additional "layer" of security saved me doing ROMmon upgrade so many times.

Swf not appearing in browser

Hello,
http://www.garybaverstock-nutrition.com/index_test.html
For some strange reason the swf that i have embeded into my 'banner' div is not appearing in the browser.
For the life of me I cannot figure out why??
Got any ideas??
Much appreciated, Damien

Hi
The answer is very simple, there is no swf embedded in your page.
Your banner div is empty -
<div id="banner">
</div>
Check you have uploaded the correct page, and that the link you provided is the correct one for the problem.

Flash button not appearing

I've added a flash button to my website and uploaded it to
the home file, but it's not appearing online. Any
suggestions?

I just purchased some software that allows you to make flash
buttons. I made a button, and thought I had it uploaded to my page,
but it doesn't seem to be working either. I uploaded some button
designs from Adobe and I see them when I go to make or edit a
button, but I don't see the one that I thought was upload from the
new software. What software are you using and how did you upload
your buttton?

2G shuffle flashing and not appearing

Hi, my new 2G shuffle, connected to an e-mac running 10.3.9 does not appear in i-tunes or on the desktop. It's connected (I pushed it down on the dock after reading some answers here!) and is flashing orange to tell me to eject it before disconnecting. But I have no icon anywhere that I can eject! I don't want to randomly unplug it.
Help! What to do?
Thank you.

Mine too is a little flaky about being seen, especially in Finder. I have found that by pressing firmly on the little shuffle and kind of gently rolling it on the connector with my finger (I am assuming this creates a better contact at the headphone jack) the little dude shows up.
Another piece of advice I've seen is to try another USB port.
That said, sometimes you have to just pull the little bugger out and reinsert it, even though the computer complains that you unmounted a device improperly. Hey, that's life.
Lastly, it seems like the shuffle on/off switch position has some effect on how the 2G is seen and works in iTunes. I have not investigated this effect in detail yet.

Flash SWF not playing - PATH ISSUE

I've got an html file in my webroot and I got the swf file in

When HTML is in webroot and calls flash from
Flash_video/Homepage/Scroll/
the flash will appear is if it was in the webroot directory.
It will always seek files it loads from HTML location, not
it's original
location.
You must be mindful of that while authoring your movies and
the paths need
to be adjusted accordingly.
In your case whatever flash loads it can no longer refer to
it by file name
but Flash_video/Homepage/Scroll/filename.swf

Flash swf not running properly in captivate

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is a flash question or a captivate question so I'm posting it to both forums. I have numerous flash cs5 built swfs inserted into a captivate 5 project. All of them are running fine apart from this one. It runs perfectly outside of captivate but within the captivate swf it goes haywire. It's a very simple fla. The only actionscript involved is a stop action. There is a movie clip that uses a number of classic tweens and then there is a layer containing textual explanations for what's happening in the movie clip. When I run my captivate project the swf does one or other of the following:
a) it runs but the movie clip starts earlier than the text and so they are out of synch
b) the text runs as normal but the movie clip does not run at all
c) it only shows the final frame of the swf and nothing else happens.
As I say, it is a very simple fla and I'm at my wits end trying to figure out what's wrong. I don't seem to be able to attach the fla here, so if anybody thinks they may be able to help please pm me with your email address and I will email you the fla file.
Just to note some of the things I have already considered: the text is all set to classic rather than TLF. The captivate project and the fla both publish as3 at 12fps for flash player 9.
yours hopefully!

Flash file not appearing

Help! Please be kind enough to look at my code for this page
and see if you can figure out why me Flash file is not showing up.
The page plays perfectly when previewed in Firefox and Safari
directly from Dreamweaver. And yes, my Library folder with the
Home.swf file is on the server.

Thanks.

This line:
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
is inserted by DW8.0.2 when you insert a Flash movie.
It'll preview OK locally but you need to upload the Scripts
folder (which
DW8.0.2 created and Adobe neglected to tell you about) so
that the Flash
movie will view OK online.

Firefox uses the object if there isn't a classid to specify an ActiveX control for IE.<br />
You didn't specify such a classid (classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"), so there is actually no need for the embed in this case.<br />
As jscher2000 posted above, an object tag only works in Firefox if there is a data attribute present (copy of the movie param) to specify the Flash file and a possible MIME type.
