How to put a Flash movie on IWeb pages

I am trying to find out how I can put flash movies on a website designed in IWeb. The .mov files are large and therefore load very slowly (and are also able to be downloaded by anyone with QT Pro I think).
Does anyone know how to put flash videos (and what format they are supposed to be in - that SWV or FLV) on IWeb? I think I have to put a flash player on the page (or site, whatever) as well.
Apple Care can't help me - and when I went for a One-on-One at the Apple Store it was a complete waste of time (I have to drive an hour just to get there).
I have found a few programs on the internet that I can buy to convert my videos to Flash (without having to spend a fortune on Adobe Flash).
Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks,
Kim

How do I get flash movie controller to show up.

I have published a flash movie to "Mobile Me", the movie works as it should but the controls do not show up. I have placed the movie.flv file along with a movie.swf file and a "SkinUnderAllNoVolNoCaptionNoFull.swf" file all in the same folder.
The following snippet was placed in iWeb.

HOW TO PUT TWO PANNEL IN THE SAME PAGE

HI ALL
I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO PUT TWO PANNEL IN THE SAME PAGE TO FULLY UTILIZE FULL PAGE AREA BECAUSE THE PANNEL WIDTH IS TOO SMALL , SO I WANT TO MAKE THE PAPER CONTAIN TO PANNELS VERTICALLY.
THANK YOU

So Barb,
I like to use multiple desktops and move back and forth between then using gestures. At the moment I have 5 open: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Photoshop CS 6 and a desktop. I use "gestures" to navigate between them:
Mac Basics: Multi-Touch gestures - Apple Support
and I use Mission Control (F3) to move the various desktops around in the order I want them.
Mac Basics: Mission Control - Apple Support
So say I'm searching for a photo to open in CS 6, I find it on the open desktop then hit select "open" in CS 6 and go to that folder in the select pane.
Even right now I'm typing this in Safari and "gesturing" back to Chrome where I did the search about multi touch and mission control. I drag copy the URL there and gestured back here to paste the URL into this text.
If you did a lot of photo searches, I set professional clients of mine in Chicago up with dual monitors (In this case you'd have an external monitor on extended desktop.). So all you need to do is just glance over at the second monitor slide your cursor over there open stuff up find your photo and go back to Photoshop and open it up.
Hope this helps.

Need some advice on how to make this Flash movie

I have 5 flash movies which are all exported swf files from Camtasia. Now I have to design a Flash movie which has 5 Icons on a blank screen which point to each of these movies. When the user clicks on one movie the exported swf from Camtasia should play and when its finished it shoudl go back to Main Menu page.
a) Is it possible to include a controllable progress bar for a SWF movie
I am just looking for advice , like do this and do that. I shall try and write the code myself.
cheers

You may find the VideoPlayer class helpful:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/fl/video/VideoPlayer.html#includ eExamplesSummary
There's some sample code there which shows you how to put a video player on a movie and play something. You would just need to add some buttons and stuff. That example is Actionscript 3. Things will be different if you have an older version of Flash.

How large can a flash movie be ?

i am buiilding a larger interactive site than i have before,
that contains a lot of images.
i haven't posted it on the web yet, but in testing the movie
it seems to freeze or go extremely slowly while "exporting flash
movie "
is there a limit to how much you can put in a flash movie,
and what is it ?

Probably the limit of what you can stand! There is a limit of
16000 frames in the timeline, but that probably isn't what you are
running into here.
If you have lots of images and maybe some video, and your swf
is maybe over 1Meg or even 500K then perhaps you are taking the
wrong approach. You should probably look into having external
assets that are cleverly preloaded just when they are needed.
This will cut down on publish time, but will also produce a
better experience for the end user and allow the flash player to
better manage memory usage.
Look into the MovieClipLoader class.

Failure to run a flash movie in IWeb

Hi All,
I've created a flash movie using Adobe Flash CS4, have gone through the procedure "by the book" following a how-to-do video [yes, I'm a novice!!].
I've published the file and produced the necessary files filename.swf, index.html, skinUnderAll.swf and a preview.jpg
OK, everything seemed OK, but try as I may, I cannot get the **** thing to run on iWeb via my me.com using this code in a HTML Snippet:
<IFRAME SRC = "http://idisk.me.com/MYUSERNAME/Web/Sites/flash/index.html" WIDTH="720px" HEIGHT="576px" FRAMEBORDER="0" --if "0" no border, otherwise "1" with border MARGINWIDTH ="0px" MARGINHEIGHT="0px" SCROLLING="no" --"no" no scrolling bar, "yes" show always, "auto" showed when need > Your browser does not support IFRAME </IFRAME>
"index.html" refers to the html that was produced by Flash CS4 and double clicking this runs the video.
For the life of me, I cannot understand where I'm going wrong & it's driving me nuts!
Can someone please check that code out & see what's wrong.... or is the prob elsewhere?
I've looked through
Any assistance most gratefully received!!

Hi again, Roddy,
Many thanks for coming back on this one again... it's appreciated.
What's odd is that if I double-click on the original file called "redsea.html" file on my computer, the movie opens & runs OK, so I guess the html is OK. I've even "copied" or downloaded the file back onto my Mac and placed it in with the other related files and it loads & runs OK.
In answer to your question, if I change the target to a preview file (a .png image file) within the same directory, this opens in a browser window. So the path appears to be correct. However, if I target the "redsea.swf" file nothing happens other than a blank white window where the flash movie should be; albeit a correctly sized and positioned window.
This info may help further;_
What I did from from scratch, I created a short movie and used Adobe Flash CS4 to create all the necessary files and copied them over to my iDisk. The files included the redsea.swf, redsea.html, preview.png, the SkinUnderAll.swf & the .flv file associated with the flash movie. These were uploaded [http://web.me.com/myusername/flash/redsea.html].
I've then used the code below in a html snippet in iWeb, but the movie refuses to load.
If, however, I change the target to a preview file (a .png image file) within the same directory, this opens in a browser window. So, I guess this means that the path to be correct.
I don't understand why the .html file will not open in iWeb?
For more info, here's the code I used:-
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000" id="obj1" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#v ersion=10,0,40,0" border="0" width="720" height="576"><param name="movie" value="http://web.me.com/myusername/flash/redsea.html"><param name="quality" value="High"><embed src="http://web.me.com/myusername/flash/redsea.html" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" name="obj1" width="720" height="576"></object>
Any help most gratefully received!!

How do I embed flash movie with detection

Hi - I want to embed a movie below a banner image in a web
page. I want to use flash detection so that the right player is
used. I've got Flash professional 8 so it spits out an HTML page
with the flash detection script written to it. In the body section
of the HTML is a <script> tag with the document.write called
if the detection is succesful. What I've tried to do is put my
banner image in a div above the script tag. This seems to work in
Firefox but gives me a tiny little stretched banner image and a
tiny little stretched flash movie when I try the page in IE7.
I've attached my HTML below. Why is this happening?

I found the answer - I was using dynamic positioning of
elements in a javacript file and was using
document.documentElement.clientHeight to get the clientheight. IE7
no longer recognises this and has started using the standards
compliant document.body.clientHeight.

Flash Movie In iWeb 3.0.2

Hi... hopefully the following makes sense
I have successfully managed to use the HTML Snippet to embed a flash movie (.SWF) on my web site created using iWeb... but it only works when I place a copy of the .SWF file in the appropriate folder on my idisk... which is fine... however, if I make any kind of change to the page containing the Flash Movies the SWF file disappears from the folder and the movie no longer plays.
This is easily rectified by copying the SWF file back into the appropriate folder but its a major pain to have to keep doing this every time I make a minor change.
Does anyone else have this problem and is there a fix?

You need to create a folder for your movie file(s) on your iDisk.
In the Finder Go menu follow the path iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites.
In "Sites" create a new folder and name it something like Movies. Drag your SWF file into this from your Mac.
The URL to the file is......
http://web.me.com/username/FolderName/MovieName.swf
This folder of media files will not be overwritten when you publish your websites - as long as none of them are named the same as the folder!

How does one detect flash movie (embed object) focus?

If I use javascript to shift focus to the embedded flash
movie object, for example with the following line of code:
document.getElementById("myMovie").focus();
Is there any location within actionscript that I can add an
event listener to detect this shift in focus to the flash movie? I
have tried attaching a "focusIn" event handler to the application
container, to the the stage, and the systemManager, but none of
them appear to work.
Essentially I need to know what object within the application
is receiving focus when I make this javascript call.
