Insert swf file CS3

I really don't know why I cannot insert a Flash movie using
Dreamweaver CS3 and have the movie display in all browsers. Why is
the code not correct? I am attaching the code that is inserted by
Dreamweaver.
I also have simple javascript attaching the file:
AC_RunActiveContent.js
I searched for answers in this forum for this and have not
found one that has worked for me.
Can someone help me with this? Am I overlooking something
very basic here? It seems to me this should be just a simple insert
here command to Dreamweaver...
Please, please, please someone answer this question...

Just post a link to the page, please.

How can I change the insert SWF File, I need to add a few things and make it better?

How can I change the insert SWF File, I need to add a few things and make it better? Is there an option inside of the dreamweaver menu that I am not looking at. It would make it easier on me if I changed some things around and didn't have to do it all myself each time I used it. Just incase you was needing to remember what swf flash was, It is not a swf video either.

If I understand correctly, Sonic Kaboom.swf needs to be edited in a separate Flash authoring program and then reinserted into your HTML document.
As Murray said, Flash is dead. Nobody uses it anymore.   We use HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript animations which have universal support from Smartphones, Tablets and other web devices that can't support Flash.   Look at Edge Animate.

Inserting swf file into dw vs. creating full site in flash

I'm updating a website, and am pretty familiar w/html and DreamWeaver, but would like to add some elements of Flash into the site. I am using Flash CS4.
What is the advantage and/disadvantage of inserting various swf files into my DW site versus just creating the entire site in Flash; what's the difference in either approach?
If I do the latter, do I eventually bring it into DW anyways so that it is an html file?
Thanks for your help!

There can be potential issues with Flash content in a web site since the evolution of iStuff led to disallowing Flash content to be displayed. If you are looking to attract a mobile user base, then going with Flash can be a gamble, especially as you go further on into the future where there will no longer be Flash Player development to parallel the mobile market.
I have heard that Flash content does not support handicapable design elements that html/css provide for.
You can always have the web page code check for the availability of the Flash Player, and if not found have alternative content presented instead.
An issue with having a full Flash site is that it can be less SEO friendly than going with straight html-based designed, although since the Flash content would still reside in an html page there are some measures that can be taken to support SEO concerns.
For a full Flash site design you would probably not need DW since Flash can generate an html page of its own.
I recommend you post your questions in the Dreamweaver forum as well. The reaction there to using Flash content is likely to be harsh, so don't take it personally, but some helpful information might still be gleamed from trying.

Help with inserting SWF file into .html page

I created a photo gallery in Flash CS5.5, using the advanced photo gallery template. It works fine as a standalone SWF file but it's not displaying properly when I try and insert it into the Gallery page of my website.
The thumbnails are showing as blank white boxes and the main image holder isn't showing at all, though the controls beneath it are showing. The SWF file and all the images are stored in site/images/gallery/ and my Gallery page is in the root. What's going on here? Can anyone help please?
Thanks

If you are storing any of your Flash assets in sub-folders and having problems... it's most likely because of pathing problems. For review:
Pathing issues
Almost always when it works on the local machine and not the server, it's a pathing problem.
You can put your Flash related files in whatever folders you want, they do NOT have to be in the root, they do NOT all have to be in the same folder. But if you have a problem and if sticking them all in the root folder works, then you know that the issue was a pathing problem.
Just remember that paths used in the .swf become relative to the Web page on which the .swf is placed, NOT it’s physical location. So for example, if your .swf is in the flash/data folder and you use that .swf on a Web page in the root folder, you are in effect, removing that .swf from flash/data and putting it in root. So if the .swf is loading any related files (xml, images, video, etc), the path used inside the .swf to load the .xml file has to be relative to it's new location in root and then back down into flash/data. This is true even though when testing the .swf by itself, it can be inside flash/data and work just fine, since relative to it's location, the path is just fine, they are in the same folder. But if that same path is used when the .swf is placed on a page two folder levels up, the relative path has changed, the old "same folder" path will not work.
In fact if you are placing the .swf on a web page in a different folder than the .swf is stored in, and that .swf calls external assets, then direct clicking and opening of the .swf in it’s folder should NOT work! That’s because the paths to the external assets should be relative to the Web page and not the physical location of the .swf.
So just be sure that you use addresses relative to the final Web page locations (not physical file locations) and you can put the Flash related files in what ever folders you want.
Best wishes,

What it boils down to is that you need to path the Flash assets from the Web page that you place the main .swf on... NOT the physical location of the .swf

How do i insert swf file in adobe muse

I need to insert some samples of our work on our website which we are developing in adobe muse. The samples are in swf output. How can i import swf into adobe muse?

Hi,
Take a look to this thread, if it helps

Inserting swfs in ASP include files, CS4?

I'm having a problem inserting SWFs into ASP include files in CS4 and am wondering if there's a solution other than going back to CS3.
I've been adding pages to this site on a daily basis and at some point a few years ago we needed to start using ASP includes. The C-wrapper is in the ASP file and the content is in the included file.
Unfortunately, the way CS4 insists on adding SWFs leads to broken pages. The error in Firefox is:
Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0139'
Nested Object
/MySite/MyFolder/MyTopic/include/includedFile.htm, line 93
An object tag cannot be placed inside another object tag.
So, MyFile.ASP uses include/includeFile.htm. The SWF is inserted into includeFile.htm. DWCS4 uses this code:
<object id="FlashID" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="510" height="384">
      <param name="movie" value="/MySite/MyFolder/MyTopic/images/oneOfMany.swf" />
      <param name="quality" value="high" />
      <param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
      <param name="swfversion" value="9.0.45.0" />
      
      <param name="expressinstall" value="/Scripts/expressInstall.swf" />
      
      
      <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="/MySite/MyFolder/MyTopic/images/oneOfMany.swf" width="510" height="384">
        
        <param name="quality" value="high" />
        <param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
        <param name="swfversion" value="9.0.45.0" />
        <param name="expressinstall" value="/Scripts/expressInstall.swf" />
        
        <div>
          <h4>Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player.</h4>
          <p><a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"><img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player" width="112" height="33" /></a></p>
        </div>
        
      </object>
      
    </object>
I understand the problem with nested objects. I think what I'd really like is to keep CS4 but go back to the method CS3 was using to insert SWF files. This current method is especially difficult because when I change it and later reopen the file DW wants to "correct" it.
Any helpful hints would be appreciated.
Rob Mack

Okay, my solution was to go find the old CS3 code and make a snippet out of it. This way I always have a piece of code that works -sort of- and at least it stays consistant. It's a little more work now but if the old CS3 code for a swf is present then CS4 won't complain.
It seems to me that hard coding this into the CS4 product makes it kind of inflexible.
Here is the CS3 code. It works in a file that will later be included in an ASP file. The CS4 code quoted previously doesn't work.

Cannot play flv or swf file.

I am using Dreamweaver 8 and Flash 8 in an attempt to play a
flash video on my website. I have read the tutorials thoroughly and
I still cannot get a video to show on my website. I have tried
inserting swf files and I have tried inserting flv files. They show
fine on my local computer but when uploaded to my web there is a
blank area where the video should be. First, where is the scripts
folder that I'm supposed to upload, there are many script folders
on my computer. When Dreamweaver 8 inserts a .flv file into an HTMl
page doesn't Dreamweaver 8 insert the necessary scripts into the
HTML document? Is there an advantage of inserting a .swf file
rather than a .flv file. I put all files in the root folder of my
website and I cannot get a video to show. I know it is something
simple I'm overlooking but I have been over this many times and I
do not know what else to try. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jimmie, I'm having the same thing happen to me so sorry
can't help. I recently did a website for my employer, without any
prior knowledge of DW (using CS3) or coding, I just know
Illustrator and some basic Photoshop and Flash (just enough to get
by and he knows this). I used xhtml transitional and a CSS layout
provided with DW. When I validate the page inDW, I get the "embed"
error. I have put the actionscript file in the root of the local
and remote sites. SWF file won't play from the remote site on my
machine in Safari or IE7 but will play from the local site when
hitting F12.
My employer is hosted on Yahoo business and he set up a user
account and password. I "put" the files to his site and they NEVER
show up. I've also tried putting them there with Filezilla (I think
its called) same thing, they never showed up. So, now he's paying
anohter girl who just completed a school course on DW and so I have
let go of the reins on that. So, I paid for a site for myself with
MarbleHost and voila, everything works except the SWF file. Also,
the &(*! Spry navigation bar is a BEAST. Seems to work
sometimes and sometimes not. DW Help seems to suck.
I have searched for hours on many forums and everyone seems
to assume we all know code. lol.
I know this stuff is complicated and there is a learning
curve. I'm a hard worker and don't mind putting in the time - its
this chasing my tail around in circles that I can't stand. Can
anyone point me to a good beginner's book? on coding. I already
have the DWCS3 Bible and its not really very good for me, as I like
step by step tutorials. I also have the DW CS3 missing manual which
is ok, but didn't really go into great depth about the Spry menu
bars (had to google that one and came up with a great chapter from
a book by David Powers at Friends of Ed website.
I'd appreciate it. Sorry if I have an attitude, I'm just
ready to pull my hair out frustrated.

transform to hand, because the banner is a buttom, and again
transform in default mode and it doesn`t stay in buttom form.When I
did the flash, I saw the .sfw file in HTML, that generated the same

Adobe presenter - work with swf file

I have a floder called Alpha. In Alpha folder I have Flash folder where my "fla" and "swf" are placed. I have subfolder called "uploaded" in Flsh where I place all my XML files. I call all my text in fla from xml files which are in "uploaded" folder.
In Adobe Presenter, I inserted, swf file which was in "Flash" folder but unable to see any text or animation. please suggest.

I would probably assume that.
I would reccomend a presenter with a "joystick" type control.
The trackball type are a pain, and usually get gummed up like the
old ps2 mice.
When I was in the navy, we had something similar to this for
ward room briefs:

It's not there. This can only mean that your site definition
is
incorrect....

Problem with FLVPlayer in Flash CS3 (need to save out as Actionscript 3.0 SWf file)

I am using Flash CS3 and am trying to publish a SWf file that
makes use of the "FLVPlayback" component. I need for this SWF file
to be published as an Actionscript 3.0 file, so I have set my
publish settings to Flash Player 9.0 and Actionscript 3.0, but keep
getting an error as follows:
"WARNING: The component 'FLVPlayback' requires ActionScript
2.0."
Has anyone encountered this?? I am doing something wrong? I'm
pretty comfortable within Actionscript/Flash 2.0, but am only
beginning my first steps into the relam of CS3 and AS3.
I have also attached a screenshot of the files that represent
my FLVPlayback component (or so I assume). (see this link for
attachments
http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?t=140886)
Thanks all,
Mark

Gotcha. You must have started the document in AS2, then
changed the
publish settings. Each version of the language has its own
version of the
FLVPlayback Component (written in the relevant language).
Start over and
compare two compleley new FLA documents: make one for AS3 and
one for AS2.
Open the Components panel and note the differences between
the two. There
are a different set of Components depending on the language
chosen for the
document. Drag the FLVPlayback Component from the Components
panel in an
AS3 document, and you'll have the AS3 version.

PrevFrame() buttons in a swf file inserted in html not working in Firefox

Hi!
I have a very weird problem.
I have created a photo gallery using AS3 in Flash CS5. I have used prevFrame() and nextFrame() actions for "previous photo" and "next photo" buttons as well as for "previous thumbnails" and "next thumbnails" buttons.
All the buttons work fine when i run the swf files as well as when i run the swf files in Firefox 8.0 and IE9. However, once I insert this swf file into my html file using Dreamweaver CS5->Insert->Media->swf, the "previous" buttons dont work in Firefox 8.0! the previous image button works sometimes whereas the previous thumbnails button does not work at all! They work fine in IE9. The next buttons also work fine in every browser. Heres my code:
stop();
thumbprev_btn.visible=false;
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextimage);
prev_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, previmage);
thumbprev_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, prevthumbs);
thumbnext_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextthumbs);
function nextimage(event:MouseEvent):void
if(mc_content.currentFrame==mc_content.totalFrames)
mc_content.gotoAndStop(1);
else
mc_content.nextFrame();
function previmage(event:MouseEvent):void
if(mc_content.currentFrame==1)
mc_content.gotoAndStop(mc_content.totalFrames);
else
mc_content.prevFrame();
function nextthumbs(event:MouseEvent):void
thumbprev_btn.visible=true;
nextFrame();
if(currentFrame==3)
thumbnext_btn.visible=false;
function prevthumbs(event:MouseEvent):void
thumbnext_btn.visible=true;
prevFrame();
if(currentFrame==1)
thumbprev_btn.visible=false;
Please help.

Thankyou Ned. The html file published by flash worked perfectly however the problem persisted even if i used this html file's code. But strangely, the problem disappeared after a few days! Now the original dreamweaver code is also working fine.

Can't see .swf files in CS3

i've read quite a few postings on this topic but none of the
fixes seem to work. after upgrading to CS3 from CS2, all of my
embeded .swf files have disappeared from the web. to be clear, i
have the .js files and folders all on the remote site, the .swf and
fla files are in the same file as the html page they are embeded
in. i have tested these pages on two different servers and the
problem persists.
here is the page i am working on:
http://fieldworking.com/main/index.html
here is a page i have set up for testing:
http://www.fieldworking.com/main/blah.html
in both situations the problem reoccurs. if anyone has any
further tips i would REALLY appreciate it...

That page has a link to a Flash file that should be at:
http://www.fieldworking.com/home/fieldworking/mainwebsite_html/main/blah.swf
The Flash file isn't there.

Are Adobe Captivate swf files not compatible with IE8 or IE9 when inserted into RoboHelp projects?

Hi,
I've published Adobe Captivate swf files and then inserted them into my RoboHelp project. I then synced my RoboHelp project with our website and the videos within online help are not functioning in IE8 or IE9. They are only working in IE11.
Thanks,
Jaimie

Hi there
When a SWF plays in IE, it uses the Flash Player ActiveX control. I'm not 100% sure that different versions of IE would share the install. So if you have one version of IE on your machine, perhaps it either doesn't even have the control added in or it's the wrong version.
One thing I would check in the browsers where the content seems to be missing is to right-click the blank area and see if you coax a Flash pop similar to below:
Then note the version number.
You may find that all that you (or others) need to do is ensure you have at least a specific version of the player/add-in installed.
Cheers... Rick
