How do I insert Fireworks Slideshow (non flash) into Dreamweaver?

I have been trying to import a slideshow from flash that I created from the built in template. I used the player that does not require a flash plug in and I cannot figure out how to insert it into my webpage in Dreamweaver. When I post the code directly it says that I have to enable java script?  I am new to dreamweaver/fireworks and coding. I know that it should be simple, but I have not been able to figure it out.  Thank you for any help you can offer!

I don't use that function, but here's a list of articles that may prove useful:

You could also look at using jquery, very simple to use and help docs come with most of the apps.
Lots of goodies here:

  • Help inserting Fireworks pop-up menu into Dreamweaver

    I wonder if anyone can help me with pop-up menu insertion
    process. I create the menu in Fireworks and export it to
    Dreamweaver. I place the menu in a fresh test document and it works
    perfectly every time, but when I go through the exact same series
    of steps in my real page, I get a broken image icon. I just can't
    understand why the path is fine one way, yet gets lost in the
    shuffle the other way. The only two differences I can think of are
    where in the site folder the test page is saved, as opposed to
    where the real (archive) page is stored, and the fact that the
    archive page already has rows and columns and cells, where the
    fresh test page has just one basic table and nothing else at all. I
    even tried manipulating the code directly to make the sections in
    question identical, and even that doesn't do it. As far as I could
    see, my actual working site page (which won't accept the insertion)
    had one extra bit of code, namely
    <td colspan="4"
    Everything else seems to be the same.
    I am losing my sanity over this!

    Would it be too late to direct you to another menu approach
    altogether? The
    FW pop-up menus are not the sharpest knife in the drawer -
    Check the uberlink and MacFly tutorials at PVII
    http://www.projectseven.com/)
    and the Navbar tutorial/articles at Thierry's place

  • How do I insert a 3d pdf file into dreamweaver

    I am using cs5, I have a 3d pdf file that needs to open in dreamweaver when someone is viewing the website not open it in a seperate file.

    I have a 3d pdf file that needs to open in dreamweaver when someone is viewing the website not open it in a seperate file.
    1) When someone visits your site, they're doing it in their web browser; not DW.
    2) HTML files are web documents.  PDF files are print documents.  2 different things.
    3) Web browsers do not support PDF files without a helper application or Plug-in like Acrobat reader.
    4) In order to view 3-D PDF files, your users need to have Acrobat Reader 9 or highet.
    5) The very best you can do is link to the PDF file and hope your users have the required software to view it.
    That's how Adobe does it.

  • How to get externally made nav bar css into dreamweaver

    How do I insert 'purecssmenu' made nav bar into dreamweaver? I have a zip file with just the interactive nav bar in it. There used to be an insert nav bar but that seems to have vanished in cs6 presumably because Adobe want you to use Spry!!!
    I am completely new to this game but it is not helpful to be constantly told that you should learn coding.
    I just want to make 1 tiny personal site. Any constructive help would be very much appreciated.

    Sorry you're having such a terrible time not only getting the navbar to work, but interpreting the help here. (That's what it is... help, only you really didn't give us a lot to go on)
    You need to do one of two things if you'd like people to stop "guessing" what's wrong with your page.
    1.Upload your page to your server and post the URL here so others can download the source code and analyze it.
    or
    2. Copy and paste your ENTIRE page of code here so it can be seen, downloaded and viewed in someone else's Dreamweaver on their computer. Something like this:

  • How to export a fireworks file to flash while retaining image quality?

    I created a banner for our website using fireworks cs3. Part of the banner has aimation (basically a slide show of 6 photos). I've tried to export the files by saving the frams to files, but when I do this, the image quality really gets bad. When I try to change the export settings and change the dither, everything but the last frame looks better and the last frame looks like a yellow color is splattered all over it....I've tried just saving the file as an .swf file but when I do so, the file doesn't work when I insert it into my web page, it doesn't work.  Is there a better way to do this?  Can I export as something else then import into flash and still retain my image quality?  Thanks for any input and help!

    How are you inserting the file?
    Flash objects need to be placed in an object tag...as described here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/415/tn_4150.html

    how do i insert a slideshow in reflow?

    Hi -
    There isn't currently a way to insert something like that in Reflow, so your best best is to export the code from Reflow, then edit it in another tool such as Dreamweaver to add the extra content.
    Hope that helps, and thanks for using Reflow!

  • 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.

    Hi chemadberk,
    In my Acrobat 8 Pro, Insert Pages is under the Document menu but anyway...
    In Acrobat X, click on the Tools pane(upper right side) then navigate to Pages- the Insert Pages commands are located there.

  • How do You import an MS Access MDB into Dreamweaver CS5?

    Hi;
    How do You import an MS Access MDB into Dreamweaver CS5?
    Developed a DBase application for a vertical market using MS Access. Worked on it for over a decade.
    Have been in contact with a rather large company and we are talking about licensing my program with them.
    BUT; they want it "On the Cloud"
    Here is what needs to be accomplished. Ideally a user can log in from anywhere, (similar to on-line banking), enter data and print reports.
    Read this a few days ago:
    "If I were in your situation and felt that there's a growth market for your offerings, I would personally go with a PHP/MySQL-based model. The printing issue can be readily resolved with PDF-based output.
    So the Querys, Forms and VBA Code needs to be brought in from MS Access to Dreamweaver.
    Can this be done?  Or is there a better way that I haven't learned yet?
    Would someone be so kind and point me in the correct direction.
    Thank You for taking the time to read this post.

    No, not any way that I know of. You would need to completely rewrite this as a web application. Obviously the MS Access tables can be migrated to MySQL and the Access queries converted to views. But the forms and custom code needs to be written from scratch in html and your choice of server side programming language.

    You can't. You need to do that in Dreamweaver.

  • How important is it to have non-flash content for iPAD?

    Hi there.
    I'm busy building a site with an image rotater in the header with a couple of images from the products. This rotater works with flash which does not work with iPAD. How important do you rate it to definitely have non-flash content as to have the odd cosmetic slide show here and there?
    Regards,

    Wonder why iOS does not like flash?
    Hi
    On Android devices the reason given for dropping support, (or no support in the case of iOS) was because it was literally possible to watch the battery power indicator drop whilst watching anything that required flash.
    On a Samsung Galaxy it only required 7 minutes of Flash video to drain the battery, and on an Android budget tablet I also use for testing, (sub £150)  3 minutes.

  • Inserting Flash into Dreamweaver document question

    When I insert a Flash swf into my Dreamweaver document, the flash file will be displayed in the same dimensions as it is on the flash file on every computer correct? So for example, if I insert a swf file that is 550 x 400 into my Dreamweaver, whether it is displayed on a computer with a 2000x1220 screen, or a 1270x800 screen, the swf file will aways be 550 x 400 (so on the 2000x1200, the swf will be much smaller). Basically I'm asking how do I make it so the flash swf is stretched to fit the entire page no matter what the resolution is?

    The short answer is you can't.  It's because of how images are handled.  FLA native files are vector images.  However, the animation/interaction itself when saved as a SWF file becomes rasterized, thus the image gets blurry the larger you make it.  So if you make it bigger no matter how you save it, the image will become blurry.  What you should do if you need to fill the background is create a repeating background image to put on your page behind the flash that will expand regardless of the resolution.  With the repeating background the image is not stretched but rather printed on the screen over and over again making the effect that the image is stretched across the screen.

  • 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.
