Help with layering HTML over Flash?

I am using stylesheets to layer an html table over a flash element. The page renders properly in Safari but in IE, there are some display problems. The table cell bumps over to the right. Can anyone assist?
http://www.kleewebdesign.com/hpcc/index2.html

Start by validation your page here:
http://validator.w3.org/
It will tell you that you must declare a DOCTYPE, more info:
http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_doctype.asp
Then learn how to use Z-indexing here:
http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_pos_z-index.asp
You will also need to give the container <div>s declared positions:
http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_positioning.asp
Here is example of Flash layered between 2 layers of HTML:

Help with Layers

Hi,
I need some help with Layers? Here is a link to a simple page
layout with 1 blue table, and 1 small green box. Both have a
capital "I" on the left. The table was aligned to "center" in DW.
http://sfrcreations.com/tbe.html
When I built this page at home, on my tiny 12" monitor, the
letters lined up over each other. When I look at it on larger
monitors, they no longer line up. I did have a suspicion that this
would happen due to my lack of knowledge of layers. So, my question
is. How does one, with a centered table, get a layer to always
appear where the designer wants it to no matter what the browser
size is. For instance if you move the browser to different sizes,
the blue box follows, but the layer stays where it is?
Are the menus on this forum site and the Adobe site in
general done by using layers? I ask, because if so, this site is
centered, and the layers seem to adjust to any browser size.
By the way, I am using Dreamweaver 8.
Thanks for any help!

8). I'm a shameless thief.

Safari have problems with streaming radio over flash

Hello,
since my update on MAC OS LION have my safari problem with radio streaming over flash.
For testing: http://shoutcast.flashradio.info/#/House/814384/
In all browsers on all platforms will this work. Just on the combination from MAC OS LION and Safari 5.1 we get the io error #2032.

Try changing some Advanced wireless settings on the router. Open the setup page of the router and go to Wireless tab. Click on Advanced wireless settings. Change beacon Interval to 75, RTS threshold to 2304. Save the settings.
Change the wireless channel to 11.
An 802.11n router can also work with 802.11g and even 11b devices. But these much slower devices force the router to slow down to talk to them, which means a big throughput hit. Fortunately, the "legacy" mechanisms are pretty efficient and reduce throughput only when the slower devices are actively transmitting or receiving. Either upgrade to all 11n clients, or use a separate 802.11g router to handle your "legacy" stuff.

I need help with shooting in my flash game for University

Hi there
Ive tried to make my tank in my game shoot, all the code that is there works but when i push space to shoot which is my shooting key it does not shoot I really need help with this and I would appriciate anyone that could help
listed below should be the correct code
//checking if the space bar is pressed and shooting is allowed
if(evt.keyCode == 32 && shootAllow){
    //making it so the user can't shoot for a bit
    shootAllow = false;
    //declaring a variable to be a new Bullet

    if(currentHP <= 0)
        currentHP = 0;
        trace("Game Over");
    updateHealthBar();

USe the trace function to analyze what happens and what fails to happen in the code you showed. trace the conditional values to see if they are set up to allow a shot when you press the key

Help with editing a template flash file..

FIRST OFF..please don't shoot the noobee..I know some folks
don't like the templates and I appreciate that.
I have done some reading but not a whole lot about Flash. I
certainly don't want to BUILD a flash (not yet), but want to edit
one that is included in a template. I only want to edit the header
that drops down. It says The Web STudio. I, for example, want it to
say Marks Studio.
Ok..the temp comes with Flash/non flash.
I open w/flash and have a 3 folders: flash, psd and html.
-flash folder has Images, fla doc and one flash html file
-PSD folder has 3 psd files
-html folder has flash folder, images folder, css file and
one single index.html file.
I opened the flash folder and found the image.jpg I wanted to
change to Marks studio.
I opend the PSD and found the slice that is the same as that,
then edited it like I want it in PSD, then saved to replace the old
image. top1. jpg
Still, it is the same ole one that came with the temp.
as I said, please don't shoot the noobe. I just wanna edit
the flash file.
Thanks for any help.
Mark

You'd need Flash to edit the FLA file.

Help With a earth spinn flash site

Hy all and I hope I am no too stupid... but I am not realy
sure what to do with .... I have a flash earth spinning but it is
not look like a spinn...Can I aply a lens or distort somehow the
image? it's look more a drag or smth... can anyone help me? I give
the source if someone want... mail please at
[email protected] or messenger id... Thanx

I doubt anybody will be able to help you specifically with
that template.
I have looked at it, and it is not something I would
recommend using, by any means.
From the general point of view of this forum's user, I can
safely say that this it is a very bad
template. That point of view is not based on how the template
looks, but on how it works, good
coding practices, accessibility, and web-design /
web-development common sense.
Flash navigation is a bad idea.
Slice-centric layout is a bad idea.
music playing in the background is a bad idea.
Pretty much everything about this template will make a
web-designer scream and run away as fast as
possible.
Then there is nothing wrong with using such template if you
have no intention whatsoever to learn
how to build web pages by yourself, use healthy coding
practices, and in the process to learn what
makes an accessible, valid, useful web page/site.
IF you really want to use this template, there might be a
forum dedicated to these templates on
monstertemplate.com, you might want top ask your questions
there.
Else, forget about this template, start afresh your own page
layout in Dreamweaver, create your
graphic elements in Photoshop, and come back here to get help
with that process.

You're not getting any help here because this is the forum for discussions of the Community Help Client application and Help system in general. For CSS questions, you should probably try something like the Dreamweaver forum.

Help with an HTML file in Flash.

Hi there.
I'm attempting to import an html file into my flash document
into a textfield on a movie clip. The text works fine, as does the
css I have attached, but the <a> tag will not work. I've
attached my Actionscript and HTML files in the hopes that someone
will be able to give me a hand! Thanks in advance.
~Vanessa
Hi, here is my ActionScript code:
function addArticle(sLinkage:String):Void{
if(oOpenedArticle[sLinkage]!=undefined) {
oOpenedArticle[sLinkage].swapDepths(nTopDepth);
return;
function loadArticle():Void {
var nWidth:Number = mcDisplayBackground2._width;
var nHeight:Number = mcDisplayBackground2._height;
var nX:Number = mcDisplayBackground2._x;
var nY:Number = mcDisplayBackground2._y;
this.createTextField("tArticle", this.getNextHighestDepth(),
nX, nY, nWidth, nHeight);
tArticle.multiline = true;
tArticle.wordWrap = true;
tArticle.textColor = 0x000000;
tArticle.html = true;
tArticle.condenseWhite = true;
function loadData():Void {
var lvArticleContent:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
lvArticleContent.onData = function(sHTMLData:String):Void {
tArticle.htmlText = sHTMLData;
var cssStyles:TextField.StyleSheet = new
TextField.StyleSheet();
cssStyles.onLoad = function():Void {
tArticle.styleSheet = this;
lvArticleContent.load("about.html");
cssStyles.load("aof.css");
var nTopDepth:Number;
var oOpenedArticle:Object = new Object();
mcAboutButton.onRelease = function():Void {
loadData();
gotoAndPlay(20);
loadArticle();
And my HTML:
<html>
<head>
<link href="aof.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>
<body bgcolor="#666666">
<p class="bodystyle" align="top" valign="top">

<h2>CONSULTATIONS</h2>
<font color="#000000" size="-1">
Click <a href="tutorials.html">here</a> for a

</p>
</body>
</html>

Hi
OK, your path has to be fully qualified, tutorials.html
doesn't work but
http://mysite/tutorials.html
should.
When you think about it the swf doesn't know where it is, so
calling tutorials.html has no starting reference.
Placing a fully qualified path enables your link to find its
target, irrespective of where the swf is.
Although this is not true when called across domains, thats a
whole new game.
Hope it helps

Need help with moving sight over to Iweb

I would like to start using IWeb but I already have a website built that I used Frontpage to create. I want to make some changes to the sight so if I cannot convert some of the things I have, Im ok with adapting!
www.DarnGoodSeasoning.com
1st question: (Visit site above) if you hover over the links on the left they turn green Can I do that in Iweb? I figured out how to do it with font but not pictures. I have the .gif of each in yellow and green.
2nd When I have created pages in the past www.HeyRobi.com It changes the name in the address bar to http://heyrobi.com/Mac/HeyRobi.html Call me petty but I want it to say HeyRobi.com can I fix that?
Thanks in advance for any help or tips. If there is any advice or tips how to improve the Darn Good site I am always up for constructive criticism. BTW I am dropping the frames!
TIA HeyRobi

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. 1 - The rollover options are only available for text, not images.
2 - To get must HeyRobbi.com to show in the URL window you'll need to use standard domain name forwarding with masking. Then every page of your site will display only that. The downside to that is visitors will be able to only bookmark the first or entry page of your site. That may or may not be a problem for you. My tutorial site, toadstutorials.info, is setup with masking.
The following is a screenshot of how I setup my site with GoDaddy.com for forwarding and masking. Although every domain name provider is different your's will have a similar setup for you to set the masking for your domain name.

Need help with jerky animation in Flash CC

Hello,
I'm creating an animation of a planet orbiting the sun and it is stuttering a little bit no matter what I try. I'm working in Flash CC, the animation is done with a custom ease and only 2 keyframes (one at the slowest point and one at the fastest). The end result has to be .mp4 so I am exporting as video. But even the swf is a little jerky. My frame rate is 29.97. The animation path is oval in shape (using an oval guide path which the planet follows), the planet is small, maybe 6 mm across, and the planet's speed varies as it orbits the sun (thus the custom ease). The number of frames in the animation is 202, that's how long it takes for the planet to complete one rotation. That anim is then looped in the movie as a graphic.
thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Here would be a similar example, linear versus an ease tossed in. I made an oval similar to yours (633px by 446px) and just used it as a guide:
Here's some videos showing the movement I get per frame. You can even see Flash Pro (CS6 in this case) exporting some odd frame choices. For example right before the 5 second mark the circle jumps 2 movements and stays in place for an extra frame (easy to see stepping through it using arrows and Quicktime player). It does this consistently even when using "None" for Quicktime compression, or using a codec.
Here's some video examples (30FPS over 202 frames, 6.7 seconds):
Linear Movement
-60 to 60 ease at the opposite side
(Source MOV (Animation codec @ 85 quality) to verify MP4 is the same)
I imagine your results are the same. It's just too much movement for to little time to really get it to play back smooth. Double the time and you'll cut that in half and I think you'll be happier. Increasing FPS beyond 30 might not be a good idea as playback will start to become machine dependant at that resolution and it could bog even worse.

Photoshop elements 4 HELP with layers with layers

hello all I got photoshop elements 4 not to long ago and ive been playing with it but i just cant seem to grasp how to use layers.I would really appreciate any help anyone can suggest.Is there anywhere i can watch someone use layers? That would really help if i could see it being done. I bought the missing manual book and it seems really good, but i still dont understand layers. Thanks for any help.

Charles
As a start you can try the imbedded help that comes with the program. Use the "help" box in the top right hand corner and type in layer. Then follow the links in each section. I'm using pse3, one version prior to yours. I have been using the program on and off for a year and I find that only just now I'm starting to use layers more often. I also on occasion "Google" photoshop elements "layers" which will take you to many sites where you can read more. It's an exhaustive topic and one that I find comes more easily as I use it.
Also use the adobe search engine at this site and type in "layers". You can read up on what other people have learned in the various threads.
I also have the Missing Manual and two other books. I find they are good but seem even better after you work away at various photos. Nothing like hands on. Just remember to keep an original of your file.
cheers

Need help with installing Yahoo style flash menu CS5

I downloaded the Yahoo style menu bar from the the available widgets. I got the menu bar to show in Dreamweaver, but need help:
I have trouble understanding how to use the f-source flash editor to edit the links.
I don't seem to be able to drop the f-source.com button from the menu bar.
The bar shows up as a tiny bar in IE8, not as I had programmed it in the widget programmer.
I was instructed to Insert ==> f-source menus ==> Edit menu in Dreamweaver. Doing this leads to the following message: "Install at least one f-source menu'. I did install the f-source-UI G file in the Adobe Extension Manager CS5. What else needs to be installed?
My OS is Windows7 and I am working with Dreamweaver CS5. Please help.
Thanks,
Tony Uythoven

Flash menus (Flash navigation, period) is a terrible thing from a functional standpoint. It looks really nice, but the honeymoon ends there. As far as SEO goes, your entire site, beyond the landing page, is invisible. A search robot will only see an embeded Flash object.
You have to ask yourself a basic question.
1. What is the purpose of building a website and putting it online?
If it's for your own personal enjoyment and nothing more, then a Flash menu may be for you. If it's for a business or band, or a political group or social group, and you want people to be able to find it in Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc. then you want as many indexible links as possible on your landing page so they will show up in related searches like schedules, articles, galleries, etc.

Help with layering HTML over Flash?
