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.

  • Need Help Entering the Correct Data on Site Setup Window

    [DW CS5 on a Mac OS 10.7.5]
    I get an "FTP Error Message" after entering data on the Site Setup window after pressing Test.
    I want to upload to my host/server's cPanel one of a number of subdirectories that I have on my root directory. My first attempt at uploading the first subdirectory failed. Can someone help me determine which of my Site Setup entries is incorrect and what the correct entry ought to be?
    Perhaps I'm entering incorrect data in the "Root Directory" or Web URL" fields. My host server has given me the correct data, which I've carefully entered. Unfortunately, my testing on the Site Setup window continues to get this message: "An FTP error occurred â&#128;&#148; cannot open server folder /public_html/alaska/. Access denied. The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem." Support staff at my host/server cannot determine why the uplaod attempts fail.
    I'll appreciate your guidance. Thanks, very much.

    Brett, thanks for your prompt e-reply.
    Unfortunately, removing the entry from DW's Root Directory field enabled a successful test, however, it caused all uploaded files to wind up in my very large root directory.     ( :-(      I had to do a lot of file management and deletions to clean up the root directory.
    My numerous approaches, after receiving your suggestion, appear to have found a successful workaround. Here's what worked:
    -- While in cPanel's File Management window, I selected the "/public_html" folder in the left column and clicked "New Folder" from the top toolbar. Once the new subdirectory folder was created, I went directly to the DW app where I then clicked the icon (atop and to the far right of the Files panel) subtitled "Expand to show local and remote sites".
    -- With DW's expanded window open, I selected the new folder name in the left half of the window. I then dragged and dropped all the files that were in the right-column's subdirectory's folder to the new folder in the left column.
    -- After completing the drag and drop effort, I checked cPanel's File Management window and verified that all files went to the appropriate subdirectory folder.
    -- Finally, I opened the site's pages online to see that all worked as intended.
    Over all, I wish DW were more reliable, such that when testing setups for *subdirectories* that have "/public_html" in the "Root Directory" field, they will *all* test successfully.
    Sadly, Adobe no longer supports CS5.    (  :-(
    Nevertheless, thanks for your assistance, Brett.

  • Need help placing Flash file in Captivate...

    I have a few short animations I did in Flash that I want to put in Adobe Captivate. They place fine and play fine. But I wanted to know if it is possible to have the last frame of the animation show for the rest of the captivate slide. I'm using Captivate 6 and Flash Pro CS6. Thanks!

    That depends mostly on what you did in the Flash file.  You should ideally NOT fade out the animation at the end and it should terminate with a stop(); action inside the Flash file on its last frame.  Have all of the animation on the main timeline in Flash so that it's not buried down inside a symbol, which would just continue to loop.  Then in Captivate, don't use fade out there either.

  • 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 viewing mov. files in Quicktime 10, with Mac OS X, 10.6.7

    I have Quicktime 10.0, and laptop with Mac Os X, version 10.6.7. I can't view certain mov files. So I looked up info online, that said to download Quicktime verson 7 to run with Version 10.0. When I downloaded Quicktime 7, I was told I could not install it because I already had Quicktime 10.0. Could definitely use some help!

    Thank you so much! I successfully download the other version of Quicktime.
    But, I'm still unable to view my mov file. I looked at the 'more info' tab and the Codecs is: MPEG-2 Video, Linear PCM, Timecode.
    Any ideas of how I can get this file to play in Quicktime, or open in Final Cut?

  • 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

  • How to "crop" flash file in Dreamweaver

    Is it possible to "crop" flash file in Dreamweaver, for

    Do I have to change the original file (in Flash). Please help

    In the embed tag, add wmode="transparent"...this will make

    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..

    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.

  • Need help to import and syncronize HCM pagelets with Interaction Hub, how can I do that?

    Hi,
    I need help to import and synchronize HCM pagelets with Interaction Hub, how can I do that? The default page "Select Remote Content" of the WorkCenter "Unified Navigation WorkCenter" is not working as well, when I run the import/sync button I get the following error message:
    Integration Gateway: General Connection Failed (158,10836)
    This error is thrown when there is no valid response.
    Possible errors include:
    Bad gateway URL
    Sync Service Timeout set and Service actually timed out.
    Java exception thrown - Check Application Server for possible Java exception

    Do you have integration configured between the two systems?  It sounds like you don't from the error.  Here is a walk-through on setting up Unified Navigation although it assumes you have integration already working.  If you haven't done that, it's documented a hundred different places.

    Ok guys I am new to the iphone 4s. I just dumped my Blackberry after 10 years. I need help integrating Microsoft Office, Outlook and Calendar with my job and is it possible? Also I need it to automatically push email and appointments to my phone? I will buy any app just need to know which is best for work environment.

For personal use I am using paid G whiz app

    I use Google Calendar Sync to sync my work Outlook calendar to a gmail account, then sync that to my iPhone.  It works well for me for the past couple of years.
    As far as mail itself, just ask your it folks for settings for remote access to your exchange account, and then set it up on the phone.
    As far as working with Office docs, to be able to actually edit them and such, look in the app store for DocsToGo or QuickOffice - they both are good but each has it's pros and cons, so on balance it's down to mere preference i think.
