Space under flash movies
Hi All,
I am having an annoying problem: when I use swfobject code to embed flash movies, it leaves a space under the movie that breaks the design. This happens when viewing it in Chrome or Firefox (on a mac), but not in Safari. I have found that when I just paste in the <object> code alone
created when I publish the movie out of flash into my HTML document, the space disappears. I have tried removing all line breaks and extra spaces
from the swfobject code to no avail. This also happens when I add the movie in using Dreamweaver CS4 (insert->media->swf) , which uses
swfobject.
Here is an affected page, note the space under both the header flash movie, and the main movie under the nav: http://hamptonsdesignstudio.com/index2.html
Here is the page with just the object code and the desired design: http://hamptonsdesignstudio.com/index.html
I would like to be able to use swfobject to provide alternate content for
search engines, but not at the expense of breaking my design. Any
suggestions ?
Thanks,
Colin
Glad you figured it out.

Gap under flash movie in Firefox
Hi all,
A site im developing shows a gap under the flash movie in firefox.
http://www.britanniamotors.net/
I dont get the problem using the other method of embedding that i used on
http://www.britanniamotors.net/aboutus.html
the problem with using this method across the site is that i am using flexipanels on these pages and they wont display the flash movie when the flexipanels are on the same page
http://www.britanniamotors.net/pxtoclear.html
So i guess the answer may be in how the flash is embedded in dreamweaver but after much searching on the web i cant find any solution.
Any help will be gratefully received.Check to be sure that you have the correct Flash plugin
installed. You obvioiusly have the correct activeX control
installed. -
Overlib images dissapear under Flash movie
Hi all,
Total noob with flash.
I have some thumbnail images on my page, when you mouse over
the images an overlib pops up with the full image. Not far above
the thubmnails is a flash header, when the overlib images pop up
part of them is going underneath the flash movie.
Any ideas on how I can prevent this?
I have tried replacing the flash movie with an image of the
same size and it all works fine then so I know its not a layout
issue.
Thanks a lot for any help with this.BlueSolar,

The reason this happens is because Flash is an example of
so-called
Active Content. Flash movies aren't actually *in* the HTML
page in which
they're embedded, they just look that way. The <object>
or <embed> tags in
the HTML tell the browser to launch an instance of the Flash
Player at
thus-and-such dimensions in this area of the document, and
the Flash Player
and browser work together to give the illusion that the SWF
is a part of the
page.
> Any ideas on how I can prevent this?
The only way to affect this issue involves an often buggy
feature called
WMODE.

Issue with border around submenu when a flash movie is under it
I've searched the forum and although I found posts about flash movies covering spry menu items, I couldn't find this exact thing.
I have a spry menu with a submenu which has a 1px solid border around it. On the pages linked to by the submenu items, I have flash movies. For pages where the flash movie is down far enough so that it is not overlapped by the submenu, everything looks great. However, on those pages where the submenu overlaps the flash movie, the border around the submenu is not visible on one side and is offset about a pixel on the other side. This is only happening in Firefox 3.6.18 Every other browser I've tried works. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.Hi Gramps,

Shahid HussainHi users,
Thanks for reply.
Actually the problem is -
For portrait dimensions are -
width 20
height 30
for landscape , obviously it will be
width - 30
height - 20
Thus , for second page - table width is 20 while page width is 30 and so 10 cm space remains blank on right side of page
user says that right side should not be blank, rather you extend table width to whole page width.
thats where the problem is -
Export flash movie to play on domestic DVD
I need to create a Flash movie with a spinning logo on a
bitmap background that can be played for at least an hour on a DVD
player through a regular widescreen flat panel TV . I can easily
make the flash movie and make it loop, but I have no idea how to
make it run on a DVD player for the TV nor what resolution will be
required.
Can any one please help me?welcome DBeaty to the boards...
be sure, your iM project is located in the 'Movies' folder of your Mac.
Launch iDVD
choose a Theme
click on Media/Movies
drop project into window...
choose 'create image' under file...
be sure, 10 - 15 GB of free disk space still avail on your internal harddrive...
wait...
wait longer...
double click on created img file..
launch Toast (or Disk Utility)
'copy' the mounted (virtual) DVD onto a dvd-r ...
... should work, should play on PCs (Windows needs an additional DVDplayer app! Windows-out-of-the-box does NOT play standard videoDVDs.. ) -

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

Flash movies stop after a random amount of time,
The problem that I am having is that flash movie files (Every website) play for a moment or two and then stop with the little “loading” symbol turning endlessly in the center of the screen. Flash movies used to work with no problem but over the span of the last few months it went from not working well to not working at all. In a perhaps related problem sometimes downloads will stop after a certain length of time and also seem to “hang” at a random spot. If I pause the reload and then restart it the program or whatever will usually finish downloading. This doesn’t happen often but does happen. The flash movie thing, though, happens every time – no matter what browser I have tried. (Firefox, IE, IE with no add-ons, and Chrome anyway.)
I have tried solutions that I have found all across the internet, including the Adobe and Microsoft forums, to no avail. I have unloaded flash with the Adobe uninstaller and reloaded flash. I have tried various flash releases – with and without a firewall on. I have made sure that I am using the 32 bit version of IE and even tried running everything in “administrator mode.” I’ve upgraded every driver that I can upgrade. I’ve used a registry checker as a last resort. I even used the Dell partition to return my computer back to the condition that it was in when I bought it and that didn’t change anything either.
Everything I have tried has made zero difference. In the hopes that someone will have another idea for me to try I am putting all the stats for my computer that I can think of below.

Answering your questions...
Have you had a Virus and if so what Anti-Virus program removed it?
No virus that I am aware of
Since you have a Dell, McAfee came pre-installed? Did you remove it prior to Installing MSE? If so, did you use the McAfee Removal Tool or just remove it from Control Panel/Programs & Features?
My computer did come with McAfee which isn't on my computer now. I used a program called "Decrapifier" that removes unwanted preloaded software that comes with PCs.
Is McAfee still Installed?
No
Do you have any Anti-Virus/Spyware programs other than MSE?
No - I have just used MSE until now. I thought about using AVAST but was't sure what running 2 virus/spyware programs would be like.
Since MSE doesn't have a Firewall, do you use any Firewall other than Windows? If so, which?
I use Windows Firewall. I have tried both adding Youtube as an allowed program and switching the firewall off enirely with no luck.
Do you use a Router? Is it Wireless?
I do have a Lynksys router that is a little older but I've also tried hooking the modem directly to the computer.
Is Qwest wireless?
I use the wired ports and not the wireless for my connection.
Other than IE8, what browsers and versions are Installed now?
I only have IE8 now. I never reinstalled the other browsers after using the Dell partition. I prefer Firefox so having to use IE is frustrating.
I've also used "RegestryBooster" to make sure that my regestry looked okay.
Thanks again for taking the time to answer. I think you are right about me doing too much - LOL -
Embedding flash movie in a web page
I have created a flash movie using actionscript 3 and an xml file with a list of images for a slideshow. After clicking publish, I can view the slideshow by previewing the html file it creates for you. However, I want to embed this flash movie in a different web page. When I try to add it in Dreamweaver, by dragging and dropping the swf file into the page, a flash placeholder is generated, but the movie does not play when previewed. It is just blank white space.
Now I watched the Tom Green tutorials on "flash the easy way" and my flash (CS4 professional) did NOT generate the AC_RunActiveContent.js files. I did find and download the file and manually added it to my Scripts folder. Still no joy.
I will note that the html file that embeds the flash video is in a different directory than the movie itself. Surely this cannot be the issue, otherwise people's websites would be incredibly messy with multiple flash videos. I am trying to put all the flash movies in their own child directories of a /flash directory to keep them neat and organized.
I am not sure what to do next. How do you make the dang thing play on a web page that is in another directory?If you are loading content ala using an xml file, that may be the source of the problem. When you load a Flash file into a web page, that web page becomes the frame of reference for any files that the swf loads. So if you tested this where the html file was in the same folder, but then moved things into different folders, then you need to adjust the Flash to load things as if it is in the html file's folder

Editable regions and Flash movie
Hi,
I am trying to insert a flash movie into an editable region
of a child page, but I keep getting the following error: "Making
this change would require changing code that is locked by a
template or translator. The change will be discarded."
I have read previous posts about the same issue, but none of
them answers my question. I tried creating a new template and a
child from it as a test deleting the css links (like some one
suggested to do) to try to identify the troubled css and I kept
getting the same error in the new pages. I hope someone can help to
identify the issue and the solution. The region where I want to
insert the movie is called "FinalMainContent."
BTW, I do not know how to write code... Sorry!
Thanks, in advance, for any help you can provide!

Playing Flash Movie .swf files in iWeb
This is my second post. The first was about generally not being able to publish my website in iWeb in Argentina. Discovered it was due to the 12 kilobytes a second upload speed!
This query is about trying to get a flash movie with .swf extension to play on my homepage in iWeb
www.edgold.co.uk
Ive made a flash movie on my girlfriends PC. Why? Because she has Flash installed.
Ive transferred it to my Mac and it plays with a programme I downloaded called SWF & FLV Player - no problem there. For the love of trying I cant get it to play.
Ive gone to 'Insert' in iWeb, clicked on Choose and selected the swf file. Ive put it in position on my homepage and published it. Then Ive opened the HTML page thats found in iDisk using TextEdit so that I can change the html to get the flash plug in to play it.
I found all the details on website by 'Vertical Moon'
http://www.verticalmoon.com/tutorials/general/iweb/iweb.htm
Ive followed every step to the letter but where they seem to slip up is that the swf file isnt played by QuickTime. QuickTime on my Mac doesnt want to know! If it was played by QT then I'd have a chance to change the html from 'writeMovie1()' to writeflash1() but there is no sign of that code in the html file let alone having to change it in JavaScript.
At the end of the day Ive got an swf file (Flash) that I want to stiuck on the front page of my website to play over and over. Ive spent over 18 hours on this non-stop and its time I called it a day.
Please can someone tell me how to get iWeb to make friends with it!
Ive looked at lost of other sites about free Video code generating but none of them work!
Cheers
Ed
(Im in Patagonia - documentary photographer...sorting a good site helps me secure sponsorship and future exhibition venues. Your help is appreciated!Alancito
Thanks for replying and the great info on getting a QuickTime to play automatically.
Please can you continue to help as Im having no luck.
I will write below briefly whats happening.
I made a QuickTime in iPhoto as was suggested. I dropped it into iWebs 'Media' button under the 'Movies' tab, in a folder. I then dropped the QT file onto my web home page. It shows with a control bar at the bottom of its window for playing it.
I published it OK. The live website shows the QuickTime movie BUT you have to click play to start it. So I then I opened the html file in iDisk in TextEdit.
I tried and tried to find the html code for the QT Movie. I read and re-read the whole html file from top to bottom and found no sign of the QT Movie. Then I went to 'Edit' and 'Find' in TextEdit and typed Movie. It came up with a bit of code which says writeMovie1();
I guess that this means it is talking about THE movie in question but there is no more code to
do with 'true' or 'false'. If it said false Id change to true but writeMovie1(); just looks like this:
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
writeMovie1();
--></script>
stuck almost at the bottom of the html file page.
Please help...remember Im using iWeb 06
Thanks...I hope Im close to solving this now. All I want is to play the QT automatically.

I often insert .swf files in my html pages however, lately I
have been trying to insert flash movies in the middle of a bunch of
text. I do something similar with and then, using the property
inspector's align dialog box, I either set the image to be on the
right, the left, or one of the other options. By doing that, the
image looks the way I want it to with the text wrapping around it.
I see that the same type of options appear in the property
inspector when I insert a .swf file but I don't get the desired
result as I do with images. The only way I can fake the look I want
is by putting the flash movie in it's own cell in a table and
breaking up the text above,below or next to the movie the best way
that I can but this is not reliable and I sometimes end up with too
much white space. Is there a parameter I need to set or a style to
add to the swf object? I'd appreciate any suggestions.Thank
you.This file is not on the server -

Editing Buttons in an Old Flash Movie
Hello,
I am trying to edit a Flash movie that was created several years ago (probably around 2002-2004ish), using ActionScript 1. It's a library map that shows Library of Congress subjects when you hover over the stacks buttons. Here is a link to show what I am talking about: http://lib.skidmore.edu/includes/files/SubjectMaps/subjectmap.swf
Click on the BY SHELF button to see the action I wish to edit.
What I would like to do now is, instead of just the hover-over feature, I'd like to make each shelf button link to a Library of Congress search in our catalog when you click on it. However, when I try to edit the buttons, they won't appear in the ActionScript window, and I get the message "Current selection cannot have actions applied to it." I've read several forum and web questions regarding this, but I'm not using ActionScript 3, and I can't figure out how to open the button up and add code to it. Is this possible?
I'd very much appreciate any help! :-)That is not a question, but I will try to explain the proper way to code a button.
Select the button on the stage, then enter a name for it in the Properties panel where it says "<Instance name>"... one word, no spaces in it. Let's say you name it "btn" (without quotes)
The button is now ready to have code assigned to it.
In the timeline create a layer that you will use for actionscript. In the frame of that new layer that is the same frame number as the button, assign code to the button by selecting the frame in the actionscript layer and typing the following in the Actions panel...
btn.onRelease = function(){
trace("this button works");
Once you have that working, replace the trace with whatever functionality you intend to code for the button.
To get rid of any code that might be attached to the button that was already there, select the button on the stage while the actions panel is open and you should see any code attached to the button. Attaching code to buttons is bad practice, so get rid of it and move it into the timeline in the timeline format. -
Space Bar Hand Move & CMD-Space Zoom Not Working-CS5
Today, all of a sudden, two of my most used functions—holding down the space bar to move the image around and holding down CMD-space bar to zoom—just up and quit on me (I do like the "Scrubby" but it took a little getting used to. It's very touch screen-esque).
I did all of the normal trouble shooting such as deleting the prefs, relaunching, restarting, etc. Nothing. The functions work fine in the other CS5 programs.
Anybody else come across this? I checked through all of the prefs thinking that perhaps I accidentally changed something but I couldn't find anything. If all else fails, I'll do an uninstall/reinstall but only as a last resort.
I did notice that Adobe finally fixed the Distort (in Full Screen Mode) bug that was killing me in CS4.
Thanks for any help.I don't believe it but I think that I finally found the culprit: hulu (the desktop app, not through a browser).
To make sure, I rebooted, launched PS, Flash, and InDesign, and then fired up every app that I could think of, one by one, testing each time, leaving hulu for last. Sure enough, it was not until I got to hulu that the space bar hand/zpom stopped working. And then I went one by one, quitting each app, testing each time, again leaving hulu till the last. Sure enough again, the space bar continued not working until I quit hulu, the very last app that I had running (aside from CS5 and system processes).
Please, please do not tell me that there is a conflict between CS5 and hulu's utilization of Flash! That would just make Mad Dog Jobs' a happy camper. (I am a big supporter of Flash on the iPad).
What a relief. Except how am I now going to watch my TV shows while working???
In regards to browser conflicts, I have had none with Safari, Firefox, or Chrome.
Adobe, I hope that this information helps. Let me know if you need any info screen capped. -
HELP!! White frame where Flash movies should be!!!
Can't figure a single reason why this is doing what it's
doing. Everything works fine before I create the projector.....but
once I launch it and test, all my Flash movies are just white
frames of the same size as the movies are supposed to be. No sound
or anything. Does the same thing on the Mac or PC side. I've tried
checking and unchecking DTS, etc. but I can't figure this one out.
My project is due TODAY....first time I've had this problem
before, ever.....HELP!!!I thought about that (actually made that mistake with the
Buddy API Xtra), but I just now got it to work....seems as though
it doesn't like talking to a shared drive space between my Windows
and Mac partitions, even though it'll play just fine within
Director while I'm working on the project. I copied everything
over, all the directories, etc. to my Windows side, created a test
projector from there, and voila!
Thanks for the suggestion; I used to make that Xtra mistake a
LOT.
