Opening a flash movie in dreamweaver

Hello, I am a professional photographer and I am trying to
open a flash image viewer automatically created in Lightroom using
the airtight image view. The viewer creates a top folder named
simple viewer and two sub folders. one with images and one with
thumbnails. It also creates a javascript file, an index.html,
gallery.xml, and a viewer.swf. I have placed this entire heirarchy
in my assets folder in my dreamweaver web page structure. When I
double click on the swf inside the assets folder of dreamweaver the
viewer works fine. If I drag the swf to an html page I get "simple
viewer gallery not found". I know this is just a structure problem
but I cannot figure out how to fix it. Can anyone point me to
someone that I can call to get some help on how to fix this. I am
willing to pay consulting fees.
Thank you
Jim

DW is not a drag and drop application.
1) Keep it simple. Keep the 'Simple Viewer' folder in the
root directory of
your local site because that's how the thing was put
together. When you
move folders into other folders, you complicate matters.
2) I think for this purpose, it would be OK for you to use an
iframe to call
the 'Simple Viewer' index.html into your site page.

I cant centre flash movie in dreamweaver

I am currently building my 2nd half flash site http://www.network3000ltd.co.uk/
i am unable to centre the flash movie in dreamweaver
i managed to do it easily in my first site http://www.contemporary-design.co.uk/
im a complete newbie to flash and html as well as css but hopefully someone will have a simple explanation to this
thanks in advance for any assistance

Try using div and centering tags surrounding the Flash embedding code...
<div align="center">
<center>
Flash code
</center>
</div>

Centering a flash movie within Dreamweaver cs3 on Y axis

I have published a movie in Flash cs3 which has generated an html document however the Flash movie is not automatically centered I have attempted to centrally align the movie within Dreamweaver cs3 by adding:
<center> after the opening body tag and </center> befor the closing body tag
This method has centered on the X axis but not the Y axis
I would have put in a table or a div tag, but when I open the html doc in Dreamweaver I have no visible repressentation of the Flash movie in the design view as I would have if I had created an html document from scratch and draged the movie onto the page, all I can see is the "get flash" hypertext and some other text. I did actually experiment by creating a div tag and dragged my movie into it but ended up with two movies one sitting on top of the other when I ran it in a browser lol. I'm quite intimdated by code and much prefer to work in the design view (wysiwyg and all that) which is quite restricting.
Any advice for centering on the Y axis would be much apreciated, Thanks in advance, Dave

I don't believe there is code to prevent this from happening
on a client computer. The default is enabled my Microsoft, what
should happen is a yellow bar should appear at the top of the
browser which will allow you view the content.
What might work is to use a program called Zinc by a company
call Multidmedia Limited www.multidmedia.com. Search the site for
samples, one of the samples is a Flash Browser this will run Flash
a browser that you can use. You will need to change the URL a bit
in the Flash code but it's very clear on how to do this.
What this will do is run your web site in a Flash browser I
did a quick test and I did not get any errors. The program will
create an EXE file. I also believe they have a MAC version if you
need one. With a simple "Autorun" call on the CD-ROM you could have
this up and running in not time.
Just be careful of how you call the pages. Since the web site
is not running from a Web server you need to make sure that your
links are local and not Site Root. The best way to test is to
disconnect your computer from your internet and see how it runs.
You want the CD to be self-contained and not have to get content
from the web (your end user may be on a laptop and not connected).
Good Luck

How do I center my flash movie in dreamweaver

Hi!!
I currently have a behavior assigned to a slice I made in
imageready. In dreamweaver I assigned a pop up browser
window to it...it will be a link to a flash movie(.swf) I
made, but I don't know how to alter the code to make the browser
window centered on the screen!! Right now it opens on the top of
the screen.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance!!

Thanks Gorka,
I looked it up and found this useful summary:
http://probertson.com/articles/2006/12/14/deep-linking-flash-application-states/
However, I'm now trying to figure out how write the flahs
vars so it can see what section / folder the page is in so that the
swf knows to play the same frames for both
swinsidelodge-hotel.co.uk/pages/hotel/awards.php and
swinsidelodge-hotel.co.uk/pages/hotel/guest-comments.php. So
basically it doesn't look at the last bit of the url but the first
bit... I would like the flash vars to be dynamic so that when the
client adds a new subpage in one of the sections the swf will still
know which frames to play.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Konrad

Inserting a Flash Movie with Dreamweaver

I'm trying to insert a .swf file into my html using
Dreamweaver8. I go to inset-media-flash video, browse to my file
enter the width and height and click ok, and I receive this warning
everytime: "The URL cannot contain spaces or specal charaters.
Change hte path or file name and try again." The file is located in
my main directory of the website, and the file is titled
clienttv.swf. Am I doing something wrong?
Also, This file is a television commercial buit in avid and
compressed in squeeze, but I don't have the .flv file, only a .swf
file.
Is there a way to convert my .swf to .flv, or is there a way
to add a skin to my .swf file so that I have the movie controls
(play/pause, stop)?
thanks,
nofx1728

Layering Flash Movies in Dreamweaver

I have one swf in an html page. I have another swf file in a
layer on top of the other with a transparent background. When one
movie overlaps the other, it flashes on and off. Does anyone know
why or how to prevent this?
In IE, the swf file in the layer actually goes below the
movie in the html page.

You could use layers and swap the layers when they click on
the buttons.

Flash movie dreamweaver 8 import.

Hi. I made a flash logo for my website. I import the flash
movie in dreamweaver 8 and resize it (actually 923 width and 119
height). The problem is that there is a blank rectangle above and
under the flash logo-obviously the blank flash stage. In flash i
made the logo in the centre of the stage. How can i delete the
blank spaces of the stage and keep my logo and import it to
dreamweaver 8?

The movie has to be design with scaling in mind to maintain
ratios.
Scale it in flash and export the 1:1 size so you don't need
to do it in DW

Centering flash movie top and bottom in dreamweaver?

Hi all, I'm a novice user of dreamweaver.
I've placed a flash movie in dreamweaver and centered it left
and right but how can I center it top and bottom so it
floats?

Not too sure what you mean exactly by "so it floats." But
I'll hazard a
guess that you want your video to appear inside a
semi-transparent lightbox
that appears to float over the page content beneath it. If
so, have a look
at FloatBox.

I can't open Flash, Illustrator or Dreamweaver CS6

Hi everyone !
I have a very big problem :
I can't open Flash, Illustrator or Dreamweaver CS6.
For the two last, I think downloading the latest version (CC) would solve the problem.
But I need to keep Flash CS6 to open my client AS2 files.
It stopped working for nothing (no updates or anything new).
When I try to launch : Dreamweaver and flash icons move and then stop. And Illustrator icon won't even move. And I don't get any launch screen or anything.
I tried to download again the softwares, to restore the preferences...
I'm on Mac OSX 10.9.1.
Thanks for your help !

Hi everybody !
I uninstalled everything, cleaned preferences, everywhere I could find them, cleaned my computer, repaired permission, etc...
And then re installed the adobe softwares I need...
And still, I can't turn on flash or dreamweaver CS6 AND CC.
Fortunately, I have my old notebook that I can run everything on to make what I need for my clients but it's an old one and it's really slow
The last solution I can think of is to re-install all my computer.
I really don't understand
I'll do that this weekend, I think... it should work... hopefully...
Regards,
Nastasia

Force flash to open file download box in front of the flash movie

Folks,
I'm making a dvd title using flash to auto start when people
pops the dvd disc in.
I have a button 'Click here to download the movie' and
clicking the button should pop up a file download box so people can
save the movie file(.mov) to their desktop.
Problem is that the file download box shows up behind the
flash movie so people won't be able to see the download box since
it's hidden behind the flash. This is critical since I intend the
flash to open as a full-screen mode.
Is there a way to force the flash to open the download box in
front of the flash movie?
I tried getURL and fscommand ("exec", "filename.exe") and
even fileReference commands to try different way of linking the
movie file, and they all open download box behind the flash.
Please help~~~

Please do not post the same topic in multiple forums. The
only thing I can suggest is when they click on the button to
download, you take flash out of full screen while they download the
video, you can use fileReference to control and monitor the
download. Use a listener object to monitor when download is
complete, then set flash back to full screen.
How are you scripting the full screen?

Open PDF in Acrobat from flash movie

Hi all,
I have made a flash autorun splash screen for a CD containing numerous pdf' files. When I click on the files in the flash movie however, they open in a browser window. Is there any way to make them open in acrobat by default?

probably not. you can't change a user's default settings. and you can't force the execution of a file like acrobat without knowing its location.

It's possible to open an Flash Lite movie locally from the browser

Hi there,
I'm trying to open an swf movie (Flash Lite) in the Nokia
s603rd Browser like this "file:///e:\documents\movie.swf" and it
gives a msg error "Web memory full. Close some applications and try
again".
I open an html file in the same way and works fine -
"file:///e:\documents\page.html".
If I request the swf file from an HTTP server it works fine.
Can anyone explain wy localy the Web browser cannot open a
local swf file?
Fernando

I would think you can bring the .mov into the timeline and make your split and add your pictures. You will have to adjust the audio obviously.
Good luck.

Opening maximized window from embedded flash movie

Hi!
I need your help!
I have a html file with a flash movie-menu embedded into it. I'd like one of the buttons to open an external html page strictly in a new maximized window. It does not matter if the new window has toolbar or not. I want it to open a new maximized window (not the full screen thing) onclick.
How can I achieve this?
thank you!

use the javascript window.open method to open your popup and set the page dimensions.
you can use getURL or navigateToURL() to execute a javascript function or better use the externalinterface class to call a javascript function in your embedding html file.
