Need Help Adding Flash Intro To Existing Site

OK I'm helping a buddy of mine out and he's already got his sie built for him by someone else, the index file is .php. Now I've got this little Flash animation that we want to run first, then when it's done go to his website. When I try to add it to the top of the index page all that happens is the site loads like in normally did but with the Flash movie at the top instead of being another page. What do we need to do to have it load on it's own first?

yes.  the index.html should embed your flash intro swf and at the end to your swf (and in a skip intro button code) you should open the current main page (using getURL or navigateToURL).

  • Need Help Making Flash Intro Movie

    I have a 30 second .wmv movie I need to convert to a flash
    format. No problem.(fla or swf)? But, I would like it to play
    before going into my main website with a skip into button. I need a
    preloader and to have it go directly onto the index.html (first
    page of the website) after playing. I have mad many failed
    attempts! Can anyone help me do this?
    Thank You,
    [email protected]

    actually - let me re-phrase that; who would sit and wait to
    download a 30 minute intro before
    entering a site?
    There's plenty of info in the help docs about flash video -
    tons of articles on adobe's site
    dedicated to flash video - google is your friend here.

  • Need help: enter flash file in Dreamweaver site with dark background

    Hi,
    I've entered a SWF in a dreamweaver site with a dark blue
    background. When you view the site in a browser there is a white
    square (the size of the flash file) that flashes up for a second
    before the file starts loading. This is rather ugly and I was
    wondering if anyone knew how to avoid this white square from
    flashing up.
    I already tried making the table background dark blue and
    adding a dark blue square as a background image, but that has not
    made any difference.
    If you'd like to see what it does, this is a link to one of
    the pages: www.billmather.co.uk/portraits.htm
    Thank you in advance for any help or advice you can give me!

    Hi Horus,
    Thank you for getting back to me. I found it, and tried it.
    But still does not seem to make a difference. This is what the code
    in dreamweaver now looks like:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0','wid th','850','height','660','src','flashFilesBill/landscapes','quality','high','pluginspage', 'http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie','flashFilesBill/landscapes'
    ); //end AC code
    </script>
    <noscript>
    <object
    classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"
    width="850" height="660">
    <param name="bgcolor" value="#000033" />
    <param name="movie"
    value="flashFilesBill/landscapes.swf">
    <param name="quality" value="high">
    <embed src="flashFilesBill/landscapes.swf" quality="high"
    pluginspage="
    http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="850"
    height="660"></embed>
    </object>
    Did I enter it correctly? (I also tried it as <param
    name="bgcolor" value="#000033"> but that did not work either) Or
    do we still need to find another solution?
    Thanks ever so much for all your suggestions and ideas. I
    truly appreciate it.

  • Adding Flash Music to HTML Site

    Hi everyone,
    I need help adding background music to a site. YES! YES! I
    know the million reasons not to do it, but the client wants it so I
    am going to do it :-)
    Once I create the SWF file with the music I want to stream,
    how can I add it to the HTML code so it will play continuously
    throughout the site instead of re-starting every time the user
    moves from one page to another?
    Thanks in advance for your help

  • Putting Flash Intros on my site?

    I have Dreamweaver CS4 and I want to put a Flash intro on my
    site that plays before getting to the home page, but I can't seem
    to find any tutorials on it. Can somebody point me in the right
    direction? I know how to embed a Flash video onto my pages, but I
    don't know how to get one to be a separate piece. Thanks all!

    >>The splash screen becomes the index
    Yup!
    And just for the record, when a prospective client demands a
    splash page or
    autoplay music I refuse to build the site. Not saying you or
    anyone else
    should do that.
    There's an old joke about a man asking a woman if she would
    sleep with him
    for $1M. She says, "Absolutely; Yes!" He then asks, "Will you
    sleep with me
    for $10?". She replies vehemently, "Hell No! What do you
    think I am?" To
    which he replies, "We have already established that. Now we
    are merely
    negotiating the price."
    To me, if I tell a client or prospect that auto play music or
    a splash page
    will be significantly counterproductive and they should not
    even consider
    either and then I go ahead and add either to the site, I'm
    nothing more than
    what that woman was.
    You see I don't think my primary goal is to please my client;
    that's my
    secondary goal. My primary goal is to please my client's
    prospective
    clients/customers. Not surprisingly, when I am unencumbered
    in pursuing my
    primary goal I routinely accomplish that secondary goal.
    That's just me. Not saying you should take that rigid
    position, but you
    might want to at least think about it. ;-)

  • Need help for flash builder

    i need help for flash builder 4 and papervison 3d. I need to create a slider with it ranges of value from 10 to 50 to adjust the camera values for the camera.fov and also need to create it for the yaw of the object from 0 to 360. I try to look for any slider event and classes in this program but cant find any, btw, i need to use the AS only project file.
    here is my codes:
    can you please tell me how i should modify the codes?
    package
        import flash.display.BitmapData;
        import flash.display.Sprite;
        import flash.events.Event;
        import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapFileMaterial;
        import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapMaterial;
        import org.papervision3d.objects.primitives.Sphere;
        import org.papervision3d.view.BasicView;
        [SWF (width="800", height="600", backgroundColor="0x000000",frameRate="30")]
        public class EarthBitmap extends BasicView
            private var sphere:Sphere;
            public function EarthBitmap()
                super(800 , 600);
                var earthmaterial:BitmapFileMaterial = new BitmapFileMaterial("../assets/Earth.jpg");
                sphere = new Sphere(earthmaterial,100,20,18);
                camera.fov = 25;
                scene.addChild(sphere);
                addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateSphere);
            public function rotateSphere(evt:Event):void
                sphere.yaw(0.2);
                singleRender();

    Turn the click handler into a full on separate function. Then store all the views in an array and use Math.rand() to randomly choose one.
    Something like this:
    <fx:Script>
         <![CDATA[
              var questionsArray:Array = {question2,question3,question5,questionRed,questionGeography};
              function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent){
                   var randomProblem:int = Math.floor(Math.random()*(questionsArray.length));     //generates a random integer between 0 and the total number of questions in the array (arrays are 0-based)
                   navigator.pushView(questionsArray[randomProblem]);
         ]]>
    </fx:Script>
    <s:Button id="randomProblemButton" label="Next Problem" click="buttonClickHandler(event)" />
    Haven't tested that, but something along that line should work

  • Need help adding schedule to xcode 4

    I need help adding a tour schedule for an iphone app building an app for 13 djs and they want thier tour schedules added these need to be updated monthly is there a way to add this????

    I don't know if this is the easiest way but it works for me. I connect the DVD player to my camcorder (so it's the 3 plugs yellow/red/white on one end and a single jack into the camera). Then I connect my camcorder to the computer (I think it's through a firewire port). Then I just play the DVD and the footage is digitized via the camcorder and I import it into iMovie 4 as it's playing. I believe the camcorder is just in VCR mode.
    I have also used this method to transfer VHS tapes onto DVDs via the camera by connecting the VCR to the camera.
    I haven't had much luck with movies over about 40 minutes on iMovie. But if it's home movies, there may be a logical break. Do maybe 20 minute segments (it's also really easy on iMovie to add a soundtrack if these are OLD films with no sound.
    As you can see, I'm low tech!
    Good luck!

    So I have Windows Vista Basic Home, I tried updating my Flash version in firefox because it was out of date, but everytime it start downloading it , then I get the a message that says "Error " Appliation in use."  I uninstalled it and followed all the suggestions on the websites nothing is working.

    I need help installing flash on windows 8

    Chris… No I was using the desktop version, I cannot stand the M version, guess it would be nice if I had  a touch screen..…when I finally got my computer to download the Acrobat Standard XI program, not sure how it worked, but I think it had something to do with Windows 8 not allowing itself to update all my apps and programs, even though my computer was set to automatically update any Windows/Microsoft updates…finally I got my Windows updates done, it downloaded like 36 files…and then I had to restart,(which also could have been playing a factor)…so finally got the program downloaded on Windows 8…but then I tried to run the new program and it says install serial #...so I assume that it was asking for the serial # for the Acrobat Standard XI…finally after googling the web, I found somebody that said try your older serial # from the previous program, and when I did this it finally works.. you would think with a brand new Windows computer I would have no problem installing Windows Updates…somebody needs to make a sticky about this, I am sure I am not the only one haiving this problem..

  • Need help getting Flash site running after pointed to new nameservers

    Can't get Gaia site working on a new server
    « on: Today at 03:10:35 PM »
    Quote Modify Remove
    Hi.  I recently switched from 1&1 shared hosting to a new webhost, Holistic.
    My Flash site (based on the Gaia framework) doesn't work now.
    Using the Flashplayer Debugger, I got the following error:
    from Main:  view.scaleX = 0.9041666666666667 and view.scaleY = 1.0129032258064516
    from Main:  view.x = 0 and view.y = 0
    Error: Failed to load policy file from xmlsocket://127.0.0.1:5800
    Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://127.0.0.1:5800 by requestor from http://www.yourgods.com/bin/main.swf has failed because the server cannot be reached.
    *** Security Sandbox Violation ***
    Connection to 127.0.0.1:5800 halted - not permitted from http://www.yourgods.com/bin/main.swf
    Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://127.0.0.1:5800 by requestor from http://www.yourgods.com/bin/main.swf has failed because the server cannot be reached.
    Also got this note even though I've set allowscriptaccess to always in my index.html:
    Warning: AllowScriptAccess='never' found in HTML.  This setting is ineffective and deprecated.  See http://www.adobe.com/go/allowscriptaccess for details.
    Warning: 'com' has no property 'onEnterFrame'
    Regarding the Security Sandbox violation, my old webhost was 1&1, and they are still the official Registrar of YourGods.com - but I now have YourGods.com pointed at the DomainNameServers for my new host, Holistic, which specializes in Drupal and has no experience with Flash - so I hope you'll bear with me and offer what guidance you can since they said I was basically on my own for troubleshooting any Flash related problems.
    Is that likely to be the source of my problem (that I'm only 'pointing' to the nameservers and have only 'parked' my domain with the new host instead of transferring it completely?
    And if so, do I just need to create a cross domain policy xml file like the one below and leave it on my Old Webhost?
    <?xml version="1.0"?> 
        <cross-domain-policy> 
        <allow-access-from domain="MyNewDedicatedIPAddressHere" /> 
        </cross-domain-policy>
    I've never dealt with this cross domain stuff before so any help would be much appreciated.

    As a test, I uploaded my Flash/Gaia site into an existing site on my old host.  And although the site actually works in this setting, when I run things in the FlashPlayerDebugger, I'm still getting Security Sandbox Violations - so (as adninjastrator suggested in earlier post), this may have nothing to do with the DNS changes - but perhaps with my setting things up wrong somewhere so that the Flashplayer is trying to access my local computer - maybe??
    Debugger logs gives me this:
    Error: Failed to load policy file from xmlsocket://127.0.0.1:5800
    Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://127.0.0.1:5800 by requestor from http://recreationofthegods.com/bin/main.swf has failed because the server cannot be reached.
    *** Security Sandbox Violation ***
    So, I've now uploaded the identical bin (which contains all the files for my site) - but I'm getting different behaviors on the two hosts.
    On the new holistic servers, the site won't go past the first page:  www.yourgods.com
    On the 1&1 servers, I still get runtime errors in FlashPlayerDebugger - but the site runs ok - http://www.RecreationOfTheGods.com/bin/index.html
    Posting those links in hopes someone with more experience in these sandbox issues can help steer me in the right direction.
