Proper way to insert a Flash Slide show

I created a Flash movie (actually a Slideshow) for my website. http://www.phillipmjones.net
Flash8 (part of Studio8 - sorry I can't afford the latest and greatest version and on a PowerPC Mac I will be updating to an Intel mac as soon as my funds allow me) It created a Page using the embed tags.
Is there a better way of inserting a flash movie that will pass w3c standards? According to XHTML 1.0 Transistional which I created my site by.
http://www.phillipmjones.net/New%20Generation/NewGeneration.html
Mac OSX.4.11
G4-1.67GB 2GB RAM PowerPC PowerBook 17"
Studio8 (DreamWeaver8/Flash8)

Well I tried something else:
<object
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="movie.swf"
width="600" height="450">
<param name="movie" value="movie.swf" />
</object>
where movie.swf = my movie.swf (NewGeneration.swf)
Now if it works for IE I'll be all set.

Problem controlling Flash Slide Show

I would like to use a static image to control a flash slide
show; in which clicking the image would start the preloader and the
slide show at the same time. I have just inserted a flash slide
show which immediately preloads and starts the slide show when the
webpage is loaded. I have inserted a large play button image and
assigned the proper behavior attributes to try and control the
slide show without any success. Here is the webpage:
http://www.ronusa.com/buick_grand_national.htm
Please see the attached code for the slide show. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Ned. When I say slide I mean instead of a scene. There is a presentation and then the slide under it. If I click on the presentation it has one key frame and I think that is what's playing when I try to import the swf into a video editing program or try to export to a quicktime movie. Its like it never plays the slide, just the presentation which has nothing but the one key frame. When I play just the swf it does fine, but I can't export it to a quicktime movie.
The design of the slide is just text, jpgs and music transitioning in and out.
My intention is to import a movie into youtube. For some reason a swf does not import very well. So that is why I wanted to convert the swf to a movie. Thanks again for your help.
Mike.

Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Then try deleting the library again.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Flash Slide Show not Showing after Hosting Change

Hey guys!
I don't know if this question is for you or for the good folks at the Dreamweaver forum, but I thought I would try here first. I took over a website for a family member to help them update it from time to time (They were paying a company to do it). When I changed hosting from the companies hosting to my own personal GoDaddy hosting everything went right, except for 2 flash slide shows (Simple rotating images). They just apear as clear boxes now. You can see what I am talking about here: http://grangerfun.com/golf and here http://grangerfun.com/pizza . You will notice the empty large empty box on the right in both pages. When you right click on it the browser recognizes that it is flash. On the Piza site I tried taking out the original code and entering the flash object via Dreamweaver CS5, but that yeilded the same results (I only mention this because the code on that site will thus look a bit different). What am I missing here? If you need more info, please let me know! I apreaciate all of the help you guys have given me over the years! I hope to one day pay the favor back!

You need to look at the Flash source file (.fla) to see what goes on inside. If the files worked in the previous server, then whoever made the files should be able to determine where any supporting files need to be placed. If that turns out to be the company that's been dumped you might or might not get help in finding that out. The least you can try to do is to copy everything from the existing site into the same file/directory structure on the new server, which I would assume is what you have tried to do, so if it is possible to still check, see what else might be on the previous server that got missed.

Need Help Intergrating a Flash slide show

I'm fairly new with Dreamweaver and was doing fine with
building my site until I got to learning how to "Integrate a Flash
slide show". I purchased Adobes "Classroom in a Book" and it has
been an extreme help but once I got to that chapter of the book it
doesn't work when my site is published. I followed all the
instructions in the book and it looks good and works fine within my
site when I do a test but when I publish it to the web nothing
comes up, it is just a blank spot where the Slideshow is suppose to
be. This is how my code looks, please if anyone can help to see if
I'm doing something wrong:

Please help!!!
Thank you.

First of all, it shouldn't be inside the <noscript> tag
see
http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_noscript.asp
for an explanation.
Once you fix that, make sure you upload any dependent
files—i.e. slideshow.swf & any javascript files that may
have been generated by DW.
If it still doesn't work after you've taken those steps, then
post a URL to the page in question. It's virtually impossible for
anyone to help you when they can only see part of your code.

Embedding a flash slide show in a dreamweaver table

I want to embed (is that the right word?) a flash slide show
into a table in Dreamweaver CS3. I'm using Flash CS3. Can anybody
point me to a good template that would allow
a. Different categories of photos
b. Thumbnails
c. Descriptions of photos (this is a product gallery)
d. Sound would be cool.
Thanks.

Have you considered posting in the Dreamweaver forum? This is a transitional forum for users of GoLive. You do not appear to be converting a GoLive slide show to Dreamweaver.

Dreamweaver website with flash slide showing showing graphics poorly

Hello,
I put this problem up in Dreamweaver and Flash and got some questions from couple people but no answer yet. Adobe tech support is only available mon though fri so thhey are not available, so I thought I would try here.
I have a flash slide show I built for a dreamweaver website that contains vecctor images that are losing quality when I run my domain site. I have tested the flash file in flash looks great. I have previewed in live view in dreamweaver graphics look smooth but when I load up my files to ftp to my host account and test from there the quality of the edges of the vectors is not smooth. I see lots of jagged edges and not sure why.
I test everything on my 24 inch monitor so the graphics are probably enlarged but even when I test the flash file in flash and the html file of my hard drive to a browser like firefox my graphics are smooth, so not sure if its resolution problem. also tested my website on my laptop which is a smaller screen 15 inch and the graphics look bad on the website from there too. Soi f it were a resolution problem I think the 15 inch screen would be showing the graphics smoothly not jagged. ?????
Does anyone have any ideas or could assist me with this problem? I
Johanna
http://johannabresnahan.com
please keep in mind when tested in flash, dreamweaver (live view and firefox browser from my hardrive html files the graphics all appear smooth and good quality. its when I transferred them by ftp to host server files and preview there and enter in my website url that the quality of the graphics and text in the graphics is jagged in many areas.
I spoke with the domain tech support too but did not get the answer but some thoughful input.

The key answer to this problem was to import the files in the original native form ai not jpeg for the
vector illustrations which kept the quality of the text that was converted
with create outlines tool in illustrator to make each character its own independent graphic
to be independently scalable to maintain its quality. Since most of the problems I was having were related to the text inside each artwork was rendered poorly in the finished slideshow on my live website url. The digital photography images were never a problem. The commentary and feedback in the dreamweaver forum helped me to figure out how to resolve the issues I was having.
I just thought I would post here in case anyone was wondering.

Creating a Flash Slide-Show

Hello Community,
Can somebody explain shortly how to create a Flash Slide-Show in a HTML Document? Let's say I have 5 images with logo and want that they change every 10 seconds. Do I need to work with JavaScript?
Regards,
MC

Your best bet will be to search Google using terms like "AS3 slideshow tutorial" (or use "AS2" if that's your preference).
A flash slideshow will not be likely to use javascript since Flash primarily uses actionscript.

Is there a way to delete the Library Slide Show?

Is there a way to delete the Library Slide Show? It references a lot of old images that are no longer on my hard drive, and it looks like it will take ages to click on Cancel for every no-longer-existant image. Can I delete the whole slide show somehow? (It won't let me do it from within the program as far as I can see).
Thanks,
Richard

Best Way for a Flash Slide Show on Website

Hello,
I have created a slide show in After Effects that I would
like to put on a website.It was converted to an .swf that was
placed on the page using Dreamweaver. The .swf is about 6000kb.
What I would like to know is if there is a way to display this
slide show using a much smaller file size? Is it possible to use an
.flv and can an .flv be looped? If there is a book that explains
how to do this I would be happy to purchase it.
Thank you,
WonderWendy

It's great to look ahead to the possibilities, Shutech. I love to be prepared! You actually have a fantastic idea to change their line to a global capable phone for the time they're in Spain. You don't need to change the plan for any other lines on the account and can simply add a smartphone with global voice and data capabilities for the few weeks it'll be used in Spain, then reactivate the basic phone and plan when they've returned. Activating devices is easy at http://vz.to/186e0Pr.
Prices for voice and data service while traveling is always updated at www.vzw.com/global. If you chose to add a global capable smartphone, it will need a data plan active since it's a smartphone, but you can chose to have the user turn off mobile data and simply use WiFi to conserve global roaming costs. If you visit www.vzw.com/support and type the model phone along with the words "mobile data" you can find the easy steps how to do this. This would leave the phone's ability to send and receive calls and text messages.
We're here for you if you have any further questions. I hope your student has a fantastic trip!
Thank you

Best way to insert non-flash photo album in Dreamweaver CS5.5

Using Dreamweaver CS4, I created my wife's art website. It is: www.tanglewoodbrushstrokes.com
To insert photo albums, I used Bridge and Fireworks. Once past the initial learning curve, I was able to create these albums fairly easily. However, these albums have two limitations that I would like to address.
1. Adding or deleting an image requires creating a new album and then posting it on the page. Now that I have practice, it doesn't take me very long to do this but there must be a simpler way. As you will see on my wife's site, she has many pages of photo albums. Moving photos from her "Recent Creations" page means those images my be disbursed over three or four different albums. So this can be very time consuming.
2. The albums created in this manner are flash galleries and are not visible on Iphones or Ipads.
I recently purchased Dreamweaver CS5.5 so I could use HTML5 in order to make my site work on Iphones and Ipads as well as PC's. I have nearly completed the tutorial and am about ready to create a new site. Today I have done some searching for ways to use non-flash galleries and have not come up with a definitive answer.
As you can see on my wife's website, the galleries are fairly simple. All I really need is a page of thumbnails leading to a larger image with a description. I want to keep it that way.
Any suggestions?

There is no one size fits all solution to this. You're using DW to make a gallery and it's not really a gallery creation tool per se. It's web authoring software. So whichever gallery solution you choose it's going to come from someplace else. And then you must integrate it into your HTML pages.
Personally, I really like dynamic slideshows with jQuery. Add some PHP code to your page. Upload jQuery scripts and optimized images to your server. Done.
To swap images later, add/delete files from image folder on server. Done.
You can see a live demo of this below:
http://alt-web.com/DynamicSlides/
http://jalbum.net/
If you want to generate a lot of different galleries quickly, look at JAlbum. It's a commercial product that creates the thumbnail images & HTML pages for you. There are lots of skins (styles) to choose from and you can further customize layouts with CSS.

Flash slide show ends abruptly

I made a flash website with an introduction slide show. When the slide show is over it closes altogether in the index web page. The slide show works fine but it closes abruptly. I would like to find out if there is a way to fadeout the slide show at the same rate the images fade out, or if there is a way to make a slideshow with a transparent background. The SWF slide show loads externally into the index page.

If you are using AS2 and your loaded slideshow is a timeline animation, then somewhere down the timeline within the loaded file you can probably use:
_root.graphic_mc._visible = false;
This will ease your burden in terms of eliminating the need to detect when the file is loaded.

Flash Slide Show Presentation Question

I have created a slide show presentation in Flash format. On
some of my slides, I have animations that run when the slide first
loads. However, as I do not want the animation to continue looping
preventing the viewer from reading the slide, I used actionscript
to place a stop action at the end of the slide animation.
The problem is that if the user uses the previous button in
the slide show to return to the slide the animation does not run.
It will only run again if the entire slide show is restarted. Is
there a simple way to fix this?
Thanks

The steps are fairly simple. I create a listener ,a loader
and an empty movie clip to load the images into. I write a
listener_mc.onLoadInit function then I use the loader_mc.loadClip
to load the images into the empty movieclip. When the loading is
complete the onLoadInit function gets called and you can resize and
center your images.
