SWF file location changes in Firefox.

www.FortConcho.com
I'm needing a little help please. I have inserted a Flash header/banner at the top of my webpage. It is placed within the top cell of a three-cell table. It works fine in ALL browsers. However, when I check the site in Firefox, the top cell is "collapsed," so that the header/banner overlaps the next cell. Any idea how I can make the cell size constant?
Thanks,
Jim

Here's a thought: wrap your body content in a div:
<div id="bodywrapper"> all of your body content here </div>
where
div#bodywrapper {
     width: 800px;
     position: relative;
     margin: 0 auto;
Also, your rainbowheaderbox has a left: 12px; that you can remove to make it all align within the 800px.

I can't seem to properly open saved Flash (.swf) files with Shockwave in Firefox.

I have saved .swf flash files on my computer. I can view flash files when part of an internet page, but when I try to open the saved ones on Firefox, it asks me if I want to download them. I have tried to change the settings in the 'options' and 'applications' thing in the 'Tools' part of the menu bar, but while the SWF file(application/x-shockwave-flash) content type is automatically set to use Shockwave in Firefox, I can't find a way to do the same with the SWF file (application/download) content type, which seems to include saved swf files.

Just out of curiosity, try playing the song in a different program . . . maybe Windows Media Player to see if it works. I wonder if it's corrupted....

Links don't work on Menu Bar: swf file location error too.

Hi folks, I'm using CS5 and Menu Bar 2.0 and am getting this error when attempting to save files using a particular template: http://imm.io/3chF
When I upload my site, some of the links are faulty, presumably to do with this error. I've tried using Menu Bar 1 and get the same error message.
The files it asks for are already in my root directory as well as in the Scripts directory. Where should they be?
FYI my test site is at http://www.arrowmark.co.nz/web4/portfolio.html. Links work from this page, but they do not work within other pages based on that template. Eg you can get from there to tatler.html but that's where the linkage fails.
Thanks in advance for advice on this problem.
Jo

Hi,
looking to your source code from "portfolio.html" you can't have a working link, 'cause there always these "#"-placeholders are "waiting" for their job:
<li> <a href="tatler.html">Prime, Tatler, 12Bar</a>
          <ul>
        <li> <a href="#">Marketing</a></li>
        <li> <a href="#">Sales</a>
            </li><li> <a href="#">Web</a>
                        </li><li> <a href="#">Image Editing</a>
                        </li><li> <a href="#">Photography</a>
                        </li><li> <a href="#">Publications</a>
                        </li><li> <a href="#">Collateral</a>
                        </li><li> <a href="#">Editorial</a>
                        </li><li> <a href="#">Event Management</a>
                              </li></ul>
for example: </li><li> <a href="imageEditing.html#">Image Editing</a> aso.
What concerns your swf-file: In my IE8 it's working, so it seems it's on the right place, or did I misunderstood your question?

Index and Paging file location change

Gurus,
I wanted to change the location of the .ind and .pag files. Right now it is in the D drive in the default location. I would like to change it to a different drive. How could I achieve it.
Thanks

Hello,
Yes you can do that.
Login to the essbase and go to the application -> database.
Right click on the database. Go to edit -> properties. A new window will open, go to the "Storage tab".
In the bottom side there is a details of index file and page file is given. You can set the location of the index file and page file over there.
Hope this helps.

What is the default file location for the Firefox cache?

It's not in an obvious location.

You can see the location of the cache on the about:cache page.
On Vista the cache can be found in \AppData\Local\ (the main profile folder is in \AppData\Roaming\)
* C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\

SWF file opens in safari / firefox but not IE

Hi.
I was wondering if someone could help me. I'm working on a flash project that people can download from the internet and use or just use on the internet. I'm have a problem with one of the links however. Its a button that is to link to a excel file, at the minute the following code works in safari and forefox, it opens the file pefect in a separate window, but in IE it opens on the same window. does anyone no what the problem could be? The code i'm using is
on (release) {
getURL("../docs/OIA.xls", _blank);

I can't say if this will fix it, but you can try putting quotation marks around "_blank"... it is a String argument so it should be quoted just like the URL is.

Property file location change

Dear All,
I want to read from a properties file (myFile.properties) using ResourceBundle. But the property file must be outside the codeBase, that is in some directory NOT in the classpath.
When I give
rb.getBundle("C:\\Mylocation\\myFile") I get java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name
Any help is sincerely appreciated.
Paras.

I found I was unable to use a bundle that was not in the classpath. This didn't work well for the WEBDESIGN team, so I ended up rewriting my own "reloadable" version of Resource Bundles (using Properties files) that accepted bundles not in the classpath and could be reset on the fly to re-read the bundles.

Swf files will not open in firefox

hi,
I can not get my pages where I have swf files to open in firefox. I have several pages
with sound also and they will not open. here is the code that I am using. I have probably
8 pages of flash and the rest of the pages are javascript and html.
page10 = "<object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,2,0\" width=\"578\" height=\"680\" id=\"page10\" align=\"middle\"><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"sameDomain\"   /><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"false\" /><param name=\"movie\" value=\"Issue007/Images/page10.swf\" /><param name=\"quality\" value=\"high\" /><param name=\"wmode\" value=\"transparent\" /><param name=\"bgcolor\" value=\"#ffffff\" /><embed src=\"Issue007/Images/page10.swf\" quality=\"high\" wmode=\"transparent\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\" width=\"578\" height=\"680\" name=\"page10\" align=\"middle\" allowScriptAccess=\"sameDomain\" allowFullScreen=\"false\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" pluginspage=\"http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer\" /></object>";
page10Html = InsertDinamicDiv(10, "page10", "", 0, 0, 586, 680, "", "", "", "");
    page10Html.innerHTML = page10;
This is a magazine on the web and prior issues have loaded in firefox using the same code but not the pages with sound.
I hope someone can help. I have no problems in internet explorer. I am having problems with apple also. I figured if I got firefox working then apple would work. again in prior issues, we could see the pages in apple.
thanks,
Jennifer

you're missing the mozilla embedding code. use:
page10 = '<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="578" height="680" id="page10" align="middle">

How do you change file locations?

I am using Lightroom on a Mac osx. I moved all my photo files to an external hard drive. Is there a way I can update my Lightroom catalog to captur the file location change? Will all the editing info, etc., transfer as well? Please help>

Use LR to move them. If you've already moved them, use LR to locate the now-red folders (right-click on them).

SWF files won't play in Firefox

When opening SWF files from my computer, Firefox won't run the file, and instead opens a 'save' box so I can apparently re-save the file to my hard drive. This happens both when I drag and drop a file from Windows Explorer and also when I choose 'Open File' from the File menu in Firefox. This only started a few months ago and I haven't been able to find a working solution online.

When I Generate, the link points to file:///c:/users/...../www.[website
address]file.swf
<file:///c:\users\.....\www.%5bwebsite%20address%5dfile.swf> . It's looking
for the file in the generated project, but it looks confused. J
I looked to see if I could import the files, but there doesn't seem to be
any import for swf files.
Can I simply put them in the directory with the project files, and point the
link that them there?
I don't want to publish to see what it's looking for when it's published,
since it's a client's site, and I don't want them to see something that
isn't working.
Thanks!

Trouble loading an external swf file implemented with AS3

I am using Adobe Flash CS3
At first, I tried
swf_mc.loadMovie("//swf file
location");
It gave me
quote:
Warning: 1060: Migration issue: The method loadMovie is no
longer supported.
USE: var l = new Loader(); addChild(l); l.load(new
URLRequest("your url"));.
Well, the given code isn't working at all.
But since it is a migration error, I thought maybe I can just
save it into Flash5 format with AS1. Then it worked with most
external swf files. However, the one I am trying to load is a swf
file with AS3, so my older version swf can't load it at all.
Anyone has any ideas about how to load an external AS3 swf
file?

AS3 is a completely different beast than AS1 or 2. loadMovie
was removed from the language.
The answer to your question is two fold. First, Adobe was
kind enough to give us the code when it finds a migration issue.
var _ldr:Loader = new Loader();
addChild( _ldr );
_ldr.load( new URLRequest( "your url") );
Handling progress has also changed. I have a ContentLoader
package on my site that you're free to use that should familiarize
you with the new way that things are done in AS3.

Spry Navbar Dropdown Under swf file image

I've built an intranet page that works fine in IE but not in
Netscape and Firefox. The spry horizontal drop down falls under the
swf file in Netscape and Firefox, making the drop down items
inaccessible. I've put z-indexes on the navbar, flash component and
the frame around the flash piece. The navbar only falls under the
flash component.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

It's not a z-index issue.
All Active content on a page will always rise to the top, so
to speak,
including Flash, certain form elements, Java applets, and
Active X controls.
This means that each of these will poke through layers. There
is not a good
cross-browser/platform reliable way to solve this issue, but
if you can be
confident in your visitors using IE 5+ or NN6+, then you can
use the Flash
wmode parameter (however, Safari does not support this
properly!).

Flash Catalyst SWF file not working in Captivate 4

Hi,
I downloaded the trial version of Flash Catalyst to use in conjuction with Captivate (I don't know how to write code) so that I have scrolling text boxes in my project. Well, Flash Catalyst works as designed, but when I go to import the swf file into captivate, they don't play nice together. My project is in AS3, which is congruent with Flash Catalyst. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong, or work arounds to get it to run would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tony

Hi Tony,
I got your file, thanks! I have not tried it inside Captivate because I was not on the same machine were Captivate is installed. However, if you tried to use, in Captivate, the main.swf file located in the deploy-to-web folder than you will have some issues. The file in that folder is very lightweight because it will download at run-time the flex framework. Therefore, if the framework is not in the same location as the main.swf when captivate runs, the animation will not show up properly. So, if you copy the other swf and swz in the same folder were Captivate publishes, then it should work.
However, there is an easier way to do this. You have another folder called run-local. This folder contains a bigger main.swf file. This file already contains all the framework part in it. So, if you try to use this file instead, it should work inside Captivate.
Give this a try and let me know if it works out.

Swf doesn't appear in Firefox

I have recently switched to Flash 8 and have run into a
problem in getting my swf files to appear in Firefox when they are
downloaded from the web server. They do appear in Firefox when I'm
doing the design work. They also appear when using IE. I can also
see other swf files from sites with Firefox. I only can't see the
swf files with Firefox that I have created with Flash 8. Any ideas
on what I'm doing wrong. As a side note, I was able to successfully
create swf file with Flash MX.

This is nonsense. The shadows worked perfectly fine in Firefox with sites produced in iWeb 06. It is the iWeb08 developers who broke it by reimplementing shadows in a way not supported by Firefox. It is THEM who should take the blame. They are costing me days of extra work.

SWF file location changes in Firefox.
