Flash in Dreamweaver???

I have uploaded and displayed flash in dreamweaver before but
for some reason i cannot get it to work now. Does this have
anything to do with CSS? The file is succesfully on the server as
you can see at www.zcarpentry.com/dropmenZCI.swf but when going to
www.zcarpentry.com the blank space on the left is where the menu
should be. PLEASE HELP!!! I am self taught and think i may be
overlooking something here is my source code:

classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="

Self taught developers usually don't get some of the finer
usability points.
If you want to use Flash for navigation, consider this -
1. Some people don't have Flash installed - what do they do?
2. Search engines don't parse Flash links - your site will
not be spidered
3. Screen assistive devices don't parse Flash links - what
will those users
do?
4. DW cannot maintain links within a Flash movie, so if you
move or rename
a linked file, your navigation will break - what will you do?
It's usually a very bad idea for these reasons...
In your case, the most profound problem is #2 - since you
have an all-Flash
page, you will not find much love from the search engines.
And even though
Google is saying it now scans Flash links, I am skeptical.

Integrating a little Flash in Dreamweaver

Hello All,
I am a newbie and just finished a Flash class. However we
didn't hardly talk at all about integrating Flash with Dreamweaver.
What I want to do is create an intro page that has Flash and
then you have to click on a Button to go into the main site. I
understand a little of Behaviors and Actionscripting so thought
that I would do the GetURL Behavior (going off memory here) to get
me from the Intro page to the main Dreamweaver site.
Question is... do I export an SWF file, put that in a
index.html page for the Intro page and then link to the main
Dreamweaver site but have the main site not an "Index" file but
another name...maybe main.html.
Is this what people do? Or do they take the generated .html
file from Flash (its published) and just use that as their intro.
Naming it index.html. And then linking to another *.html created
with Dreamweaver but that is not saved as index.html.
Also, how often are people doing a PURE Flash website and not
mixing the Flash and Dreamweaver together? Just curious.
Thanks for clarifying.

It's the new IE functionality (introduced in the April 2006
patch update for
IE6 and made compulsory by the June 2006 patch update) to
comply with a
ruling against Microsoft's patent infringement.
It's triggered by the <object>, <embed> and
<applet> tags on a page. Flash
is normally imported into a page via the <embed> tag
hence it's affected by
the change. Content imported into a webpage by these methods
is known as
Active Content and now requires an extra click to activate it
and interact
with it.
The workaround ultimately rests with website designers who
are now advised
by Microsoft and Adobe etc to implement the controls for
Active Content in
their sites indirectly via Javascript rather than direct HTML
tags.
If you have DW8, the 8.0.2 updater will insert Flash with
Adobe's
recommended Active Content fix already included in the code.
With any other
version of DW, you'll have to do it manually.

Flash or Dreamweaver? (Either?)

Here is today's softball/dumb question. In an effort to create my own website I have been spending a considerable amount of time learning the essentials of many Adobe programs through Lynda.com and with Adobe's CS5 Master Suite of software. Most recently I have been going through Flash tutorials. When it comes to creating a website through Adobe software I thought Dreamweaver, HTML, CSS, etc were the foundation, (i.e., framework), of ALL website creation and that all other programs, Ps, Ai, Fc, etc....AND Flash where used in SUPPORT of that goal. That is they created the graphics and other animation files used within the Dreamweaver website foundational framework...but Dreamweaver was essential (using Adobe software).
The more I learn about Flash and applications such as After Effects the more confused I am becoming because, though I am unsure, it seems that Flash can be used as a foundation for a website all by itself and Dreamweaver cut out of the process all together. So my basic/fundamental/dumb question is is that correct? Though an answer to that question requires only a simple yes or no answer, and a simple yes or no answer is welcome and appreciated, any elaboration on the basic structural use of these various Adobe programs in pursuit of the goal of creating a website would be appreciated as well.

Sounds like you are well on your way this your project and I wish you the best!
Just to clarify one point.. There is no such thing as a Flash Website .. only HTML, PHP, ASP etc. sites which may have some Flash content.
So I don't think it's a question on using Flash or Dreamweaver to build your site... most likely you will need both, Flash for the content, DW (or some other editor) for the page structure as well as any PHP for server side scripting you may need.
As for building your own shopping cart, I suggest you start at your bank and work back from there to your Web site, NOT the other way around. Banks are very strict about which "Gateways" they use and the Gateway company is very strict about which shopping cart they will allow to connect to there services.
If you are expecting to collect payments via credit cards, you'll most like need a Merchant Account at your bank. Check and see what it takes to get yours set up. That's the account that your Gateway service will connect to... for background info..here are a couple used by local banks here:
http://www.authorize.net/
and
http://www.firstdata.com/en_us/home
But get with your banker before going too far. Make sure that you don't have to undo some of the efforts and development because they did not meet bank or gateway specs.
Best wishes,

Inserting FLASH into Dreamweaver cs3

I am trying to build a VERY basic website in Dreamweaver. Using their single fixed column, centered,template, i would like to ad 2 flash items, a menu and small movie, in to he top of the column. (Both flash items are larger than the column with, if that matters,i was going to resizxe them nce i got this part of the cose correct)
For some reason the flash movie shows in my Dreamweaver preview, but not when i load it live online @ www.srg-buffalo.com.
The address i have used for the flash movie is: http://www.srg-buffalo.com/flash/header_v8.swf
The website is hosted at www.swq-buffalo.com, if you want to check out the source code.
I have no idea what I am doing wrong, i thought it was pretty simple, there is no flash block via my go daddy host.
How i inserted it via dreamweaver cs3:
Insert> Media> Flash.
URL= http://www.srg-buffalo.com/flash/header_v8.swf
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks for any help.

Thank you,
That rung a bell.
I uploaded both saved .SWF documents to the Scripts directory.
There was also a Scripts dirrectory saved with index.html, in this directory was the AC_RunActiveContent.js file,any thoughts on that?
i uploaded it to scripts,along witht he others, and the space dedicatd to the flash events is there, but they are not showing.

When you insert the SWF, you shouldn't have to actual type anything - it's a browse and select process and will automatically enter the correct path to the SWF. Then you have to upload the page and the SWF file. This next part I think has changed in later versions of DW, but in CS3 I'm pretty sure the process will also create a folder named Scripts. This folder along with it's contents also need to be uploaded.

Inserting Flash into Dreamweaver

I don't know if the solution is in Flash or Dreamweaver, so excuse me if this is the wrong location. I created a Flash Photo Gallery (swf file) and want to add it on my site. It's a fairly large file, so I also created a preloader to let viewers know that it's installing. The problem is my Flash file won't start playing until the whole thing is loaded, therefore you won't see the preloader until the whole thing is ready to play and so you don't need a preloader by that point. I can't get this Flash file any smaller and all I need to know is how you force Dreamweaver to start playing an SWF file before it's fully loaded. What I'm doing now is Insert > Media > SWF and then I find my file. From there, I can't find any option or code to tell it to start playing as it downloads. It's seems like it should be so simple, and I feel like the only person who can't figure this out!

If there is a nextg time, simply post a link to the live page (http://www.myproblempage.com) and people can peek under the hood.
Glad you got it solved.

Build in Flash or Dreamweaver for Video Site

Hello... I'm new to Dreamweaver and Flash.
I need to build my website that will feature my portfolio of videos that I've created. If I have around 20 videos for viewing, is it best to create the site in Flash or Dreamweaver?
Thank you

Hi Gorka:
I’m finally able to focus on your suggestions and
hopefully finally finish my site. Just to make sure I’m clear
on your advice using a scene called “paintings” as an
example, I discard my earlier code such as <PARAM name =
“FlashVars” value = “jodysite_paintings.swf =
paintings”>, and replace it with the code you suggest that
would look like this once completed (below)?
<PARAM name = “FlashVars” value =
“jodysite_paintings.swf =<?php echo $_GET[' paintings
'];?>”>
<EMBED FlashVars = "jodysite_paintings.swf=<?php echo
$_GET['paintings'];?>"></EMBED>
And in the Actions window for the button that would open a
new browser window upon release for the “paintings”
scene, the Actionscript for that button would read:
getURL("javascript:window.open('
http://www.jodywidelitz.com?scene=paintings','Paintings',
toolbar = no, menubar = no, scrollbars = yes, location = no,
fullscreen=yes, width=1024,height=768); void(0); "_blank", "GET");
if(paintings != undefined){
gotoAndStop(paintings, 1); 1 is for frame 1
This is the way I have the code now, but I developed a glitch
as soon as I changed the code. My preloader stays caught up in a
continual load that won’t finish, and won’t advance to
the next scene. It was working before I entered any FlashVars
coding. So the Flash movie embedded in Dreamweaver stays blank.
Also, I am using the original Flash MX and Dreamweaver MX from
2002-2003. By some chance, does this earlier version of Flash MX
not recognize FlashVars? I do have the DOCTYPE as <!DOCTYPE HTML
PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> to allow any
deprecated code, etc.
Thanks again,
Jody

Insert Flash with Dreamweaver CS3 Question

So I have been building websites for awhile and have always relied on the built in insert flash object that came with dreamweaver as I have never had issues with it.
However as I finished a site recently the client had a friend look at it and brought up the red flag that the site was not w3 compliant. So I go and look at the little tool they have and the only error that comes up is related to the insertion of flash on the page.
I googled it a bit and found a number of people saying that the insert flash through dreamweaver will no show up as compliant. A couple solutions to fix the problem.
But before I go down that road, I want to ask. ...Does it really matter here? Seems like Dreamweaver insertion would be compliant? I mean come on the link that the w3 give to fix the problem is a link from a fix created in 2002.
I have never heard of anyone saying no the flash does not show up so right off I am not terribly concerned but it would be nice to know..
Also if it is important and suggestions as to a nice fix to the issue would be great.
Thanks for your time,
Chris

Right you are!
I tend to spot check pages and haven't done a W3C check on a flash embed in my websites (apparently). Just did one pursuant to your question. The page is 100% compliant without the Flash video. has 51 errors, 35 warnings with it. Lots of those errors are Adobe-generated Javascript that handles the flash video insert, skins it and so on.
Here is where Adobe may not be compliant with the W3C.

Controlling Flash in Dreamweaver

Hello all,
Thanks in advance to anyone who can solve this problem!
I am building a page in Dreamweaver 4.0 and adding a large
Flash movie (using Flash 5.0) which I want to start by clicking or
mousing over a smaller image elsewhere on the page. However when
viewing in Firefox, the movie starts off as soon as I load the
page, rather than when I mouse over the image that is being used to
start the big movie. It works in IE 7 but not in Firefox. Is there
a piece of code I need for Firefox.
I have followed the directions for Controlling Shockwave or
Flash within (Dreamweaver as follows:
1 Choose Insert > Media > Shockwave or Insert >
Media > Flash to insert a Shockwave or Flash movie,
respectively.
2 Choose Window > Properties and enter a name for the
movie in the upper leftmost field (next to the Shockwave or Flash
icon). You must name the movie to control it with the Control
Shockwave or Flash action.
3 Select the item you want to use to control the Shockwave or
Flash movie. For example, if you have an image of a "Play" button
that will be used to make the movie play, select that image.
4 Open the Behaviors panel (Window > Behaviors).
5 Click the Plus (+) button and choose Control Shockwave or
Flash from the Actions pop-up menu.
A parameters dialog box appears.
6 Choose a movie from the Movie pop-up menu.
Dreamweaver automatically lists the names of all Shockwave
and Flash movies in the current document. (Specifically,
Dreamweaver lists movies with file names ending in .dcr, .dir,
.swf, or .spl that are in object or embed tags.)
7 Choose to play, stop, rewind, or go to a frame in the
movie. The Play option plays the movie starting from the frame
where the action occurs.
8 Click OK.
9 Check that the default event is the one you want.
If it isn't, choose another event from the pop-up menu. If
the events you want are not listed, change the target browser in
the Show Events For submenu of the Events pop-up menu.
I have followed all these directions, but the big movie
starts playing as soon as I load the page, rather than waiting
until I mouse over/click on the small jpg below. I have even added
the <param name=play value=false> to the big movie code to no
avail. I am viewing the site on Firefox.
Here is my code for the large movie:
<td width="380" height="280" valign="top"><object
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="

and here is the code for the jpg I am wanting to mouse over
or click on to make the movie play:

Hmm... looks ok to me. You should be able to place it in a
folder without
problem. I'd try using SWFObject to put the Flash on the page
though - that
_might_ fix your problem. Odd one.

Flash to DreamWeaver problem

Hey guys I'm new here..
I got a problem going from flash to dreamweaver. Here it is:
I have a site in progress: http://www.competitivevideogames.com/ns/ns.html
and I want to replace the top navigation bar with this:http://www.competitivevideogames.com/ns/nav_bar.swf(still a work in progress)
The problem is, the dimensions of this .swf are 1000x98 (the tightest it can be without cutting out the dropdown menu) and I want the bar to look like it does in the picture(1st link) which is nice and tight. Also, How can I get the drop down menu to overlap my html and flash below it? Because right now the only way i can see the drop down is if I give it enough black space in flash.
Any Help?
I can re-explain anything if it was a little confusing
Thanks

Also, How can I get the drop down menu to overlap my html and flash below it? Because right now the only way i can see the drop down is if I give it enough black space in flash.
That is correct. Flash content cannot draw outside its container/ canvas. The rest is merely in the way you stack content via DIVs with Z-indexes and the respective rules for transparent drawing of Flash content, which is done using the proper Flash param upon embedding.

Flash and Dreamweaver question? Please help :)

Okay, how do I make it so that if I import a .swf file, that will act as an index with buttons to the other pages of the website, into my dreamweaver project and make it so that when I click the buttons on the .swf file, it will take me to the pages I make?
Sorry if this should've been in the Flash forum

It is a flash question, but still answerable... There are two options I could suggest:
1. You can set up your links to be "absolute"... for instance, if your site is named http://www.mysite.com and you have a button named "About Me" that you'd like to link to a page named "aboutme.html", simply set up the link to go to "http://www.mysite.com/aboutme.html". *Note that this method won't allow you to test the link locally - it will only work after you've uploaded the "aboutme.html" page to your webserver.
2. Second option is: You can link to the pages locally, but be sure all of your pages are set up in the directory correctly so that links aren't broken. For instance, if you have your "index.html" with your flash navigation embedded on the page, I would recommend NOT placing the .swf file into a subfolder like "images" or something like that - keep it on the same level of your directory as your index page. Also be careful about pointing to all subsequent pages - it's easiest if all of those are also on the same level, but if you have a large site and want to organize it, be sure your navigation links reflect the directory structure. e.g., if you're going to link to "aboutme.html", and it's in a subfolder named "generalstuff", the link would look like this: "generalstuff/aboutme.html".
***Note - if you're going to use the same flash-based navigation on every page of your site, you HAVE to use either absolute links, or ALL pages need to be on the same level of your directory (no sub-folders)...
Hope that helps - good luck!

Flash and Dreamweaver

Can you help? I'm not sure if I properly conveyed my problem
on the forum.
After getting the error message (at bottom of this post), I
went on Adobe and found a Tutorial entitled "Presenting Video with
the Flash Video Component in Dreamweaver 8" at the link below:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/flv_tutorial.html
The tutorial says:
The Macromedia Flash Video component in Dreamweaver 8 helps
you easily insert and display Flash Video (FLV) files in your
websites. This article shows you how to use Macromedia Dreamweaver
to insert and display FLV files on your site, using a template
website.
First I got the error message when working on my own DW8
website. Then on the above Adobe Tutorial I got the same error
message when I got to step 3 on page 3 of this tutorial:
Select Insert > Media > Flash Video from the main menu
to launch the Flash Video Component.
Error message:
"Making this change would require changing code that is
locked by a template or translator."
Any help you may be able to provide is appreciated.
Kind regards,

to insert and display FLV files on your site, using a template
website.
First I got the error message when working on my own DW8
website. Then on the above Adobe Tutorial I got the same error
message when I got to step 3 on page 3 of this tutorial:
Select Insert > Media > Flash Video from the main menu
to launch the Flash Video Component.
Error message:
"Making this change would require changing code that is
locked by a template or translator."
Any help you may be able to provide is appreciated.
Kind regards,

Adobe 'fixes' for Flash and Dreamweaver

According to what I've been reading, Adobe added fixes to
Dreamweaver 8.02 to deal with the Active Content problem created by
Microsoft when Flash animations are embedded in web pages. Since I
have an earlier version of Dreamweaver and Flash and am having
problems like everyone else with that issue, would some 8.02 user
kindly inform me if this is indeed the case, and what does one do
in the new version to ensure Flash active content runs as intended?
Is it something that one must still manually add to the code in an
.html file, is the correction added automatically, is there an icon
to press....just how is the new feature/fix used and incorporated?
I'd like to know before considering an update. Thank
you..............frank

Basically after you update if you add a flash file you get
this code added to the html file:
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
and that folder (Scripts) and (fileAC_RunActiveContent.js)
are automatically created with your project. When you import a swf
file the code that is automatically generated is also updated with
a snippet of code to fix the AC issue:
<script type="text/javascript">
AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0','wid th','404','height','368','src','~movies','quality','high','pluginspage','http://www.macrom edia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie','~movies'
); //end AC code
</script><noscript>
You dont really have to do anything other then remember to
upload the scripts folder to your server when you publish.

Can't install CS6 apps- photoshop, illustrator, indesign, after effects, flash and dreamweaver.

Hi, thanks for any insight you can provide:
my specs are as follows:
Macbook pro mid 2012 13.3 inch
OSX 10.8.4
2.5 ghz Intel Core i5
intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB
10 Gb 1333 mhz ddr3 ram
500gb hdd/326 gb free
I had CS6 master collection installed on my computer up until today. I removed it because Illustrator was having a strange issue where points would snap to random nothing and, align wouldn't work and changing the stroke of an object would cause it to move down and to the left each time the stroke changed.
Illustrator issues aside, since uninstalling I can't get it to reinstall! It gives the following error:

So far this is what I have done:
uninstall everything, run the cleaner tool, reinstall- same error
uninstall, restart, run cleaner tool , restart, reinstall- same error
run cleaner tool, restart, resintall - same error
in checking the error codes individually it looked as though I might have file system errors
I rebooted with command+r and launched disk utilities from there (mac safe mode I guess?)
verified mac hdd: verified OK
ran repair anyway- verified OK again
checked and, if possible, repaired each other volume- all OK
rebooted, reinstalled, same error
I am going to address the first error now- that the display requirements were not met, and remove my external diplay from my macbook and reinstall.
Any help you might have though, I would be very grateful.

oh, also, i've re-downloaded the installer and also gotten a third installer from a friend.
removing the external display did not help
