SWF animation is not showing up in IE8

I have test page : http://drupal-windwater/windWaterWidget
With two flash banners which are clickable . On click they open bigger window with additional swf animation inside. In any case, neither small or expanded animation is showing up in IE8.
It works perfect in all other browsers and even IE9.
Using suggestions from these places didn't seam helping.

Please advise

The link you provided for the test page fails.
Browser issues normally result from embedding code issues. Did you let Flash publish the html for the swf's... if not, give it a try.

publish an html file using flash and use that to display your slide show.

.gif Images not showing up in IE8

I have 2 images in my menu bar header that are not showing up in my header for some reason. They show up in IE9, Firefox, Safari, and Chrome. But for some reason they aren't showing up properly in IE8. I'm not sure what the problem is. Every page on the website has this problem. Below is a link to one of the pages.
http://www.ibewlu220.org/_html/_Units/CPNPP/CPNPP.html
The code in the head section is:
.fltrt { /* this class can be used to float an element right in your page. The floated element must precede the element it should be next to on the page. */
    float: right;
    margin-left: 8px;
.fltlft { /* this class can be used to float an element left in your page. The floated element must precede the element it should be next to on the page. */
    float: left;
    margin-right: 8px;
The code in the header div is:
<div class="fltlft">
    <a href="http://www.ibewlu220.org"><img src="../_images/_Logos/IBEW220logo.gif" alt="IBEW LU 220" name="IBEW LU 220" width="240" height="120" id="IBEWLU220" align="left"/></a>
</div>

</div>
Thanks for your help.

When things go wrong, it's almost always a code related issue. Validate your code and fix reported errors. You have duplicate usages of the same ID. And you have name attributes with spaces in them. IDs and Names must contain single word tokens, no spaces allowed.

An swf file does not show up in the website even though you can see it in preview and publish

I created a swf file from a mov file in Adobe Encoder. Thge movie shows up in Muse in both the preview and publish mode.
Does not show up in the webstie. The html file is in the assets foder and the swf file is in the image folder and the space is blank.
When i encoded the .mov file I saved it as FLV. Web 1920 x 1080, 16 x 9 5.4 Mbps is the setting for Flash Web Video when i encoded the file.

Flash movie not showing up in IE8

Hi,
I have a flash movie on a login page that shows up fine in every browser apart from IE8 (surprise surprise!), where I just see a red cross in a square. You can see what I mean if you look at the page in IE:
http://monthlymixup.com/index.php
Here is the relevant code:
The movie was created in Flash 10 with ActionScript 3. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why it is isn't working in IE?
Thanks,
Nick

OK, here's the problem. From the time the .swf file starts to download until it is completely downloaded is the flicker time.
So the browser draws the container, puts the little x inside until the entire .swf is downloaded.
I verified that by deleting my Temp Internet files cache and while opening the page, monitored the download via ZoneAlarm firewall indicator lights. The empty container is displayed when the download starts, and the .swf is not displayed until the download is complete.
So to resolve... incorporate a preloader into the .swf or use swfobject.js and provide an alternate image that gets downloaded/displayed first while the .swf is downloaded.

swfobject is also an excellant way to enhance SEO of Flash content.

Text in Flash Animation will not show

I am hoping that I could "pick" the group's brain for a quick
moment. I am a novice developer when it comes to using Flash and I
am in the process of developing a series of Flash Banners. My
problem...the text will not display the banner when I save it as a
GIF file. It works fine in the "html" and ".swf" file format. I
always make to check "animated" option when I am publishing the
banner as a GIF file. I did update my flash player as well. Any
help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I finally discovered the answer.
ALL the files had to be in the same folder, none of them could even be in a sub-folder.
Once I made sure I copied ALL the files into the same folder, no more problem.
Thanks for the offer to help.

HELP! animated text not showing up in final render (after effects)

I'm using position and motion blur for my animated text. I changed the font several times to see if there was any license issues and there isn't. I also put a static text layer in the file and then rendered, and THAT text will show up, but moving text refuses to show up. What can be the problem? Please help!

We need to know a lot more if we're going to help you. Please provide answers to the questions listed here: "FAQ: What information should I provide when asking a question on this forum?"
Note, especially the request for screenshots of the relevant panels, such as the Timeline panel and Composition panel.

Imported swf file is not showing at all

Hello!
I have custom swf that I have created in Flash Pro CS5, in AS 3.0. It calls upon two .as files which are in an "actionscript" subfolder and it reads a .xml which is in the same path as the custom.swf (no subfolder). The swf works perfectly fine when launched on its own (i.e. loads the .as + the .xml files correctly).
Now, I imported the swf in a brand new Catalyst project, which pretty much just has a square as a background. However, when imported, the .swf shows up as a simple icon with a question mark and has a deafault size of 30x30 instead of 500x500 (unlike other swfs which usually show up with the simple "f" icon and have their correct default sizes). Knowing that on import the Catalyst won't import the .as and .xml files I duly copied them to the "src" folder under C:/users/USERNAME/Application Data/Adobe... etc. I also set up the action sequence "OnApplication Start" to play the .swf
I preview the project and I pretty much get only the gray square with no trace of any swf whatsoever. I decided I might have the paths setup wrong somehow. So I published and copied my .as & .xml files into the same folder where my custom.swf is (i.e. \run-local\assets\images). When i play the custom.swf there on its own it works fine (as expected). However loading the Main.html from the \run-local folder again doesn't show anything but the square. Then, I also copied the .as + .xml in the \run-local root folder where the Main.swf is located (as I read that they need to be in the same path as the top level container). Again there was no effect.
Please help me solve this issue. I believe that the fact that the custom.swf is imported with wrong default dimensions (30x30 instead of 500x500) and the wierd icon might have something to do with it. I can upload the source files somewhere if necessary.
Thanks!

Hi, Chris!
Thanks for giving it a thought but that didn't seem to help :/
I'll try recompiling it tonight in a few different ways to see if anything changes. I'm testing entirelly on the local drive.Still haven't tried uploading anything from that project to the web.
Just a s note - the swf is entirely powered by the two .as files (because it just renders some words from an xml) so maybe there might be an issue if the file doesn't really contain much (although i tried putting some colored boxes inside and it didn't help).
I'll post links to the .fla and the .as files later today.

Animation does not show when previewed or published

I have an animation that appears to be working, and shows in edit mode, but that does not appear at all when I preview or publish. It is a countdown clock I need to an activity.

Hi there
What version of Captivate are you using?
If it's version 4, note that you may choose an Actionscript version to use.
Click Edit > Preferences...> Project node > Publish Settings node.

Why are animation presets not showing in pop-up list for fractal noise?

In a standard install of AE CS4, the animation presets pop-up list showed a bunch of presets for fractal noise (see attached image).
In a standard install of AE CS5.5, the animation presets pop-up list showed a bunch of presets for fractal noise (see attached image).
In a standard install of AE CS6 (on the Mac), the pop-up list is empty. (Yes, I enabled the "Show presets"), despite the fact that, eg, "Curtain.ffx" is in the equivalent Presets>Backgrounds folder.
Is there another switch to turn on? I'm using Mac OSX 10.7.5.

How do I tell Windows 7 to open SWF files (executable not showing in Program Files)

Windows 7 asks for a program to open SWF, and I installed Shockwave, but I cannot find the program in Program Files or Program Files (X-86).
On Windows XP, SWF files automatically opened with Shockwave, but now W7 says I need a plug-in for my Firefox browser to open it with Flash Player.

Please ask your question on a forum for the Flash Player

Edge animation on muse site does not show in IE 11

Hi
I made an anmation with Edge (2.01.268.25632) and published it as an oam file which was placed in Muse (7.1).on the Homepage. When published to BC everything works fine with all browsers.
However when the site was ftp uploaded to its hosting company (not BC) the animation does not show in Internet Explorer 11. Tried HTML export instead and ftp upload with Dreamweaver without result.
Any thoughts? Client does not want to install Chrome or Firefox Which have no problems with the animation. Thx. Henk

Elements do not show up in edge file but they do in HTML file; no errors occured

I am a senior in college working on building a website for a fictional company for a year-long thesis graphic design project. In my class last semester, I learned how to use Edge Animate and created an 11 page website without any trouble. I had always kept the files saved to my flash drive, and kept a backup on my personal laptop as well as on my external hard drive. There was also a backup of the files on a disc that I turned into my professor in mid-December. All of these files worked fine at the time.
In early January, I wanted to make changes to the website so I installed a trial version of Edge Animate on my laptop. When I opened any of the edge files from any of the backups, the stage was blank and the animations did not show up on the timeline. The elements of the website still show up in the Library but they are no longer arranged on the stage. When I got back to school at the end of January, I tried opening the files on the school computers and had the same problem. I asked my professor to try the file that was saved to the disc and he encountered the same issues on his computer. All of these computers are either iMacs or Macbook Pros.
I have not recieved any error messages and did not do anything to corrupt the files or save over them. I am able to open the html files in a browser with no issues; all animations and images work fine. The only change I can think of is that Edge may have been updated over break and when I installed the trial version I installed a newer version, and for some reason the new version of the program could not properly load my project that I started on a older version in October or November of 2013.
I am happy to upload the files but I am unsure how to do that. Please let me know if there is a way to resolve this issue, or will I have to start over?
Thank you!

Try to clear your preference and restart your Animate.See if that fixes your problem
