Flash working in preview but not in any browsers

I've created a Flash animation and inserted the SWF file (created in Flash 8) into my Dreamweaver CS2 file. It all works fine in preview (both in Flash and Dreamweaver). But on any of the browsers the public file doesn't show the flash animation.
I have a transparent layer in Dreamweaver over the SWF file so that I could put hotspots which are working.
Here is the link to the website: http://www.manfredsbikerepair.com/ (click Enter).
I've updated AC_RunActiveContent and downloaded a trial FlashCS5 but still no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.

According to page's source code you are trying to use the AC_RunActiveContent.js file via your local drive. You'll need to place that on the server and link to it properly.

Simple buttons working in Preview, but not on iPad

Hello everyone. I have a Button (I'm working in InDesign CS6), with instructions "Go to State". It links to a photo on a seperate layer. The link works perfectly in the SWF preview (shift-command-return). But when I update the file to view it in Adobe Viewer it does not work. (I am using Viewer Vers 25) There are no other functions on the page that could be "blocking" it. In fact, on some pages where there are two or three buttons (all of them with instructions of "Go to State"), 2 may work and one not. I am confused as to how I can see it working in the Preview, but not on the iPad. Any suggestions appreciated. Many thanks!!

Bob, just got in and downloaded the patch - the buttons are working perfectly now!!
Thank you for taking the time to help me out!! I'll be more diligent from now on in checking for updates. Thanks again. James

ou can try deleting OPM.DB from steps below and try again.
Mac OS: You can locate the OPM.db file in the \User\\Library\Application Support\Adobe\OOBE folder. To access the hidden user Library folder, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion. - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/access-hidden-user-library-f iles.html

3) update to the latest version of the Creative Cloud app.
Also we would like few more details:
When has this issue started occurring, was this after installation of any specific adobe product.
On which platform are you seeing this.
Also we would like to know if after above steps this issue occurs ever again in future.

I can't figure out why this page splits in live preview... but not in the browser?

I've finally got my site up and it all runs great... except I can't figure out why this one page behaves like it's too wide.
http://www.johnnez.com/mainbooks.html
It comes apart in the Live Preview.... but not in the browser preview.
Thanks for any tips...

Sounds to me like you've almost cracked it!
You have one error that could cause problems and that's the stray </blockquote> tag. Just delete it.
The alt="" text will show as an error on the validator but that's easy to fix and worth doing.
Here's an easy article on that: http://www.456bereastreet.com/archive/200412/the_alt_and_title_attributes/
In one of your CSS files (JonzheaderindexCSS.css) you have this:
body {
margin-top: 20px;
padding: 0;
color: #666;
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
line-height: normal;
background-attachment: fixed;
background-color: #E1B852;
background-image: url(../images/orange%20plaid.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat;
html { overflow-y: scroll; }
It should be like this:
html {
overflow-y: scroll;
body {
margin-top: 20px;
padding: 0;
color: #666;
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
line-height: normal;
background-attachment: fixed;
background-color: #E1B852;
background-image: url(../images/orange%20plaid.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat;
It looks like you have that rule repeated further down the page like this:
html { overflow-y: scroll; }
There's an extra curly brace there (}) anyway, so it is badly formed but the whole rule and extra curly brace can go.
You can fix those errors but I have a sneaky suspicion that it isn't gong to solve the issue you describe.
Fix those issues anyway and post back. Maybe if you can show a screen shot of what you are seeing in DW it might help?
Martin
PS: It's never a good idea to have file names on the web that have spaces in. Your background rule has this:
background-image: url(../images/orange%20plaid.jpg);
That .jpg should be orangeplaid.jpg or orangePlaid.jpg or orange_plaid.jpg and the change should be reflected in the reference to the image so, orangePlaid.jpg should be:
background-image: url(../images/orangePlaid.jpg);

XML (RSS) Spry Dataset File Works in Preview But Not Over Internet

hello
I am trying to build a custom feed reader using the Spry framework in Dreamweaver CS4 and everything seems to go smoothly until I actually host the file (with the accompanying js and css files) and try to view it over the internet
previewing from DW shows everything working the way it should
I feel like I am missing something obvious ... but not sure what
thanks for any help!

Hi, i have a similar problem..
These URL returns a XML:
1) http://www.bolsadesantiago.com/intradayServlet?symbol=IPSA
2) http://www.valorfuturo.com/contenidos_vf/proyectos/clientes/penta/titularnoticias.asp
I use a CS4 and both works in preview, but only first works over internet (IE7).
I suspect that 2° has a problem of syntax XML, but work with jQuery.

Flash image viewer works in preview but not online

Hi
I followed an online demo on how to get an image slideshow on my webpage using flash. It was using insert media image viewer. It all worked fine, looked great in the preview but when I put everything online I can't see it. Just an empty space were it should be. This is the site where it is
http://www.idoityourself.com.au/ if tried moving the image to different areas in case it didn't like being in a folder within a folder etc but still didnt work. Any ideas??
thanks

You have not uploaded the Scripts folder to your server which DW generated automatically for you when you inserted the Flash.

Flash video works onDreamweaver preview but not after uploaded to site

Hi,
I created a page with FW CS3 and opened it with Dream weaver.
Using Flash CS3 I created some video clips. I then inserted three
video files to the web page. In DW preview mode I can see the
videos. I copy the source code and pasted it to the index page of
my website as well as uploaded all the sit files from my hard drive
folder to the website. The page comes up but not the videos.

Search this forum for "FLASH" "UPLOAD". You'll find hundreds
of answers.

My site works in Composer preview, but not on the web.

I have just created a site w/ composer(through mozilla) and it works when i preview the index.html in the mozilla browser. So I am now using the fetch demo to ftp transfer my files to my domain(www.swansondesignline.com) which i registered through nameroute.com. when i view my page everything works except for my images. yes, they are all .jpeg & .gif....no, there are no spaces in the file names....no, i have not changed the location of these files. any help?

Looks fine here too. However, since this discussion forum is for iWeb, you may find better support in a forum that is specifically for composer.

PayPal button action works in preview but not when published

Hi!
Any thoughts as to why this works correctly in CS5 publish preview but when I publish it I either get no action or (XP comupter) or a blank page (vista). Any thoughts or insight would be appreciated. Also, I'm new to flash and here's the button action:
on (release) {
        //create the LoadVars that will hold our paypal information
        var paypal = new LoadVars();
        //specify the business, amount of the item, shipping, etc.
        paypal.cmd="_xclick";
        paypal.upload="1";
      paypal.business="[email protected]";
        paypal.currency_code="USD";
        paypal.amount="275.00";
        //paypal.handling = "0";
        //paypal.no_shipping = "0";
        paypal.item_name="One Session";
        //added
        //paypal.lc="GB";
        paypal.bn="PP-BuyNowBF";
        //paypal.no_note="1";
        //send our information to PayPal, including all the optional variables we have collected from customer
         paypal.send("https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr","_blank","POST");
Thanks!

Hi Robert,
as far as I understand your post, you are missing some kind of "button-artwork" in the published file, but do not report a problem with the "action" that the script should perform.
My guess would be that it will be hard to help you without having a better understanding what your trying to achive and how (are you using a prebuilt component, or did you build the button fron scratch etc....)
It might be even necessary to have a look at the fla itself.

Masking works in preview but not when published

I am dynamically loading higher-res images into a movie clip
that
correspond to the place in a 360 degree rotation the main
clip is at,
then resizing that movie clip to "zoom" the image. Since I
don't want
to overflow the whole screen, I've created another movie clip
that
masks the loader movie clip.
When I preview the flash file, it works perfectly. When I
publish the
file, the mask doesn't get applied. Thoughts?
zoom_btn.onPress = function(){
if(iszoomed == false){
loadMovie("zoomimages/" + Math.floor((_currentframe-4)/3) +
"big.jpg", image_mc);
stop();
zoom_btn.onRelease = function(){
if(iszoomed == false){
Loading progress loop begins, extra code
removed...
if (pcLoaded >= 99){loader_mc._alpha = 0;
image_mc._visible = true;
myMask_mc._visible = true;
image_mc.setMask(myMask_mc);
.....Loading progress loop ends}
iszoomed = true;
}

Works in preview but not when published in captivate 8?

My youtube widget used in captivate 8 works just fine in the preview, but when published there's nothing where the video should be, any idea as to why?

Interactive PDF–buttons working in preview but not in PDF

I have a series of buttons that reveal hidden graphics. One of those hidden graphics is a background layer, in a separate layer, that should appear when a button is clicked. It is showing up, but in front of all other content, even though the layer is in the background. I have nothing else on the background layer. Also, the preview in InDesign shows this working properly, it's the exported Interactive PDF that is having problems. Any suggstions?

Show/hide buttons can let you show and hide graphics which have been themselves turned into buttons. But in InDesign, they cannot control the visibility of layers. I think that's because of the way buttons are handled in the PDF file. I think the buttons themselves are seen as a separate layer above the "content" of the PDF.
You can change layer visiblity with buttons but not in InDesign. You have to do it in Acrobat.
Create your layers in InDesign. Export as a PDF but in the Export Adobe PDF dialog box, you must select Acrobat 6 compatibility and check Create Acrobat Layers. This takes InDesign layers and makes them PDF layers which you can work with in Acrobat.
You can either create the buttons in InDesign or in Acrobat, but controlling layer visibility isn't an available action in InDesign. So you'll need to change their action WITHIN ACROBAT.
In Acrobat, you can choose View > Navigation Panels > Layers. You can turn the eyes on and off to control visibility like in InDesign. Then set the layer visibility the way you want the first button to set and set the action for the first button to be Set Layer Visibility. When you click Add. It sets the visibility to the current state. Repeat the process for the second button.
In InDesign CS5, to export buttons you'll need to choose File > Export > Adobe PDF (Interactive). Check Acrobat Layers.

Swap images works in preview but not in browser

Hi everyone,
I am attempting to get a swap images to work. It works in the preview window but not when I preview it in the browser. When I open it in a browser the states seem to "cycle" through really quickly in rapid succession. I have linked my png file for you to see. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
denbeck

Your swap image slice is set to Animated GIF. Change it in the Optimize panel to plain GIF or PNG 8
