SWF file not showing in browser

Hi all,
I have inserted a swf file into a webpage in dreamweaver CS5 that needs to have a transparent background.
I have done all the necessary things in flash and set the "wmode" to "transparent" in the parameters section in DW.
This is where the problem arises. It displays with an opaque backbround but when I change it to transparent it disappears completely.
here is the offending page:
http://www.makeupbydoll.com/
I had the same thing working on a previous version of the site but can't seem to resolve this issue.
Any assistance much appreciated!

Looks like your swfobject embed method is not working correctly. Turn off swfobject and test again without it.
In the <head> just rename the swfobject file so that it won't load.... easy to change.. test... change back again:
Change this:
<script src="Scripts/swfobject_modified.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
to this:
<script src="Scripts/swfobject_modified_off.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
you'll see I just appended "_off" to the file name, then save and test the page... quick and easy way to turn off that file... then test again.

  • The Path to nowhere - help! swf files not showing in browser

    i need help with getting a swf file to show in the browsers. (it previews in dreamweaver)
    created a website in dreamweaver cs4. created a simple slideshow in flash 4.
    on the index.html page inserted the flash file.
    it previews in dreamweaver BUT when i text in browsers it shows as a white box.
    have been reading through all the info about paths etc.
    can you simplify this entry below from adninjastrator on the adobe forums sept 19 2011???........
    "Still looks like a pathing problem to me. For review:
    Pathing issues
    Almost always when it works on the local machine and not the server, it's a pathing problem.
    You can put your Flash related files in whatever folders you want, they do NOT have to be in the root, they do NOT all have to be in the same folder. But if you have a problem and if sticking them all in the root folder works, then you know that the issue was a pathing problem.
    Just remember that paths used in the .swf become relative to the Web page on which the .swf is placed, NOT it’s physical location.  So for example, if your .swf is in the flash/data folder and you use that .swf on a Web page in the root folder, you are in effect, removing that .swf from flash/data and putting it in root. So if the .swf is loading any related files (xml, images, video, etc), the path used inside the .swf to load the .xml file has to be relative to it's new location in root and then back down into flash/data. This is true even though when testing the .swf by itself, it can be inside flash/data and work just fine, since relative to it's location, the path is just fine, they are in the same folder. But if that same path is used when the .swf is placed on a page two folder levels up, the relative path has changed, the old "same folder" path will not work.
    In fact if you are placing the .swf on a web page in a different folder than the .swf is stored in, and that .swf calls external assets, then direct clicking and opening of the .swf in it’s folder should NOT work! That’s because the paths to the external assets should be relative to the Web page and not the physical location of the .swf.
    So just be sure that you use addresses relative to the final Web page locations (not physical file locations) and you can put the Flash related files in what ever folders you want.

    i am not sure why this sounds so foreign to me.....
    i understand the page code instructs the browser to find and load the flash file from a path.
    i do not understand "/2812gtbros.swf (i.e. start at the root of the site and look for that filename in that location)
    i have the html fla and swf file in the folder on my computer named 212GTflashpics (2012freelance/2012gtbrothers/212GTflashpics/2812gtbros.swf) and i have it in the website folder GTbrothers1 with all the images scrpts sprys and html files
    the files be in the website folder o
    in your previous Question...
    "This line -
    <param name="movie" value="/2812gtbros.swf" />
    is telling the browser to look for the flash file in the root of the website.  Is that where it is?"
    what is before the / in the value=" /2812gtbros.swf? wouldnt that tell us the path of the file?
    thanx

  • Flash .swf file not appearing in browser when publishing from iWeb 3.02

    I have been working on a site for the last couple of months that i created in iWeb 2.0 and had successfully had small flash movies that I embedded via html snippets from code provided by numerous sources and youtube videos demonstrating how to get flash movies into one's site.
    The url is
    www.almafoods.com
    Today i upgraded to 3.02 and had to make a change to the home page. The domain opened up fine with all the HTML code and .swf on the page exactly as I had it in version 2.0
    When I now publish to a folder, first of all it doesn't copy over the .swf file unless I create a link to the file, but even when I upload all the directories to my ISP's remote server, the movie isn't not showing up in the browser. The html code file and .swf file are in their correct directories on my ISP's remote server
    I'm baffled as to what is going on here as its the exact same domain that worked perfectly in 2.0 and this has peed me off no end
    Does anyone have any suggestions or encountered the same problem in 3.02?
    Any advice would be very much appreciated

    Your .swf files are in the same folder as the widget-markup files.
    Keep your custom files OUTSIDE the folder with the sitename iWeb creates.
    iWeb will overwrite everything when it needs to do that, wiping out your custom files.
    Put the files in a separate folder and determine the link to these files.
    Read this : Using the iWeb HTML Snippet
    Besides that, to display these tiny pictures I wouldn't use Flash.

  • Swf file not playing in browser

    I have a problem with a swf file which will not play in web browser.
    It played fine until I updated my site. I therefore suspected a pathing issue within dreamweaver and looked thorugh that forum for an answer.
    I tried typing the absolute path to the swf file in the browser address bar and found it straight away. When I clicked on it the screen stayed blank.
    I checked the path to the file and the flv file was relative to the document and not the site.
    swf plays fine in flash player, flash, and locally on dreamweaver.
    I moved the swf up the file tree and changed the links accordingly but still would not play.
    I also tried saving it as a new swf from flash, but that doesn't play either.
    I added another swf to the containing folder and that played fine in the browser.
    When I open the fla file in flash it only shows a flv playback movie, not the elements, I think this is because it was created in after effects.
    Here is the link to the containing folder, the swf file is Home_page_movie_V2.swf
    http://www.joinerycadsolutions.com/Flash/01 Home
    I have other swf files playing fine and this swf played ok originally so I still think it's a pathing problem but I am not that savvy on flash and cannot figure it out.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, just bear in mind my low level of ability.
    Thanks
    Stuart

    The .swf is loading just fine... but it is expecting to load a .flv video file.
    The path inside the .swf to the .flv file is not correct. The path inside the .swf to the .flv file needs to be relative to the .swf as it's located on the Web page, NOT the physical location of the .swf.
    Here is the absolute address of the .flv:
    http://www.joinerycadsolutions.com/Flash/01%20Home/Home%20V1.flv
    Here is a test player using that address:
    http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/tutorials/flash/cidm_simple_vid_player.html
    So unless your .swf is broken, it just a pathing issue.
    From an old post:

  • Swf file not showing text

    I have revamped my website and for some reason I cannot get
    the whole .swf to show the text after i put it through Dreamweaver.
    when i look at the .html file and play the .swf file everything
    works just fine. I have this as my home page and need all my text
    to show properly.
    I have links within the website going back to home page and
    the .swf file show the text like it should. Is this a Flash 8 issue
    or a Dreamweaver problem?
    Here is my website and someone can browse and hopefully see
    what i am talking about. If you go to one fo the other page and
    click on home page you see that the page looks different from the
    www.joanrobertsfoundation.com page.
    Please help me understand what i could possibly be doing
    wrong.

    Here's a sample I made for someone here a couple weeks ago to demo something much the same as what you want.  They were trying to reproduce what the flv movie does which is played along with it.  Maybe you will see something different bertween what you've done and what is in the file linked below (if you can open it)...

    Thanks for the information about Flash no longer being the best or contemporary way to design web sites. This shows me how long I've been away from designing them.
    I will redesign my web site in Dreamweaver very soon, as I would like it to play on iOS devices.
    But at the moment I would just like to see my Flash page working in a browser.
    I have inserted my Flash page in to Dreamweaver, and new code has been automatically added. But still the navigation button doesn't work.

  • File not showing in SharePoint (IE) but visible in Explorer

    I have a document library that has a single file not showing up that I can't seem to track down.  I am hoping someone here might be able to offer something I haven't thought of. 
    The document library is very much 'stock'.  Verisioning is turned on and minor revisions aren't viewable to folks without edit rights.  I am the admin with full control to everything - as is the user this initially impacted. The file will show
    in the Explorer view - but isn't viewable in an 'all files' file via the browser or when attempting to open via Excel.   If we provide the full path/file it does open successfully in Excel and offer the Check Out option - but it won't show up
    in the 'File Open' dialog.  
    I thought at first it might be a matter of not having a version checked in - but it isn't showing under "Manage files which have no checked in version" menu.   I've gone through the various SharePoint view options and can't find anything there either. 
    What would make a single Excel file in such an ordinary document library not be visible to users with full control rights?  We have roughly 80k files stored in SharePoint overall - so please don't read this as being our initial test of SharePoint. 
    I'd really appreciate any ideas... 
    -Troy

    Just to add a few more details. I have been able to add the file to a different library and they uploaded fine. The library in question is created off of a template and has 2 metadata fields. The fields are also being used in the other library, but that
    was created from a different template.
    The site and initial 4 libraries were created from a site template and then the library was added from a different library template. Checking ULS logs now, but doubtful I will find anything.

  • SWF File not working after upload to server, but works on local system

    HELP PLEASE.....I have created a Fla and exported a swf file
    from Flash 8 and Export (Flash 6). I can preview the page in
    Dreamweaver just fine, but when i upload it and the html file, it
    isn't showing up. It leaves a blank spot on the page. It is just a
    simple banner with graphic clips and motion tween text, with image
    bgd. All images are jpg.
    I have tried:
    1. Using a full link to the swf file.
    2. Removed drop-shodows in swf file
    3. convert to Flash mx 2004 file
    4. Exported to higher Flash version to see if the flash
    player was an issue.
    5. Exported with no dashes in name
    6. Added Scr file into Dreamweaver
    7. Made a new test file to see if it was something in the

    THANKS FOR ANY ADVISE.

    Page Link

    The link you provided is to the SWF file, not to an HTML
    file, so no one can test your HTML file.
    Have you checked the code for the embedding of the SWF file
    in your HTML file? I don't use Dreamweaver much, but I do know that
    if you start assembling a Dreamweaver file without first saving the
    HTML, embedded graphics and other items are inserted as direct
    links to the files on your computer, rather than as relative paths.
    There is one other possible issue: I note that your swf is
    called CWABanner.swf. Depending on your FTP settings, it is
    possible that your server is forcing all file names to lower case
    (a common practice). Which means the file on your server will be
    cwabanner.swf. Again, depending on how the web server is set up, if
    it is case sensitive, it will treat CWABanner and cwabanner as
    separate files. So if the HTML calls CWABanner.swf, but the FTP
    upload has forced a rename to lower case to cwabanner.swf, the HTML
    file will not find it. Check this out, or to be absolutely certain,
    rename everything to lower case: the file name itself and the
    reference in the HTML file.

  • History is blank! does not show any browsing history even changing the settings v 3.6.20 Mac OS

    Regardless of the settings you choose, Firefox is not showing any browsing history. It's happening in version 3.6.20 for Mac as well as V 5 for windows. I see a lot of the same questions on the internet but no answers

    I'm on Linux. There is no QuickTime for the Linux platform, but I see the player loading (caching) that movie. The Gecko Media Player doesn't seem to be able to play that file embedded, but does play it if I open the .mov file directly in the player.

  • PDF File not opening in browser for sharepoint 2010

    Recently we have moved our web application from one server to another in Sharepoint 2010. Back up of entire web application was taken and restored in another server. But in the new server , the PDF files in the document library is not getting opened in browser.
    it always open in browser
    I have already made following changes but didn,t work
    Set browser file handling to Permissive from central admin
    Set "open in browser" in setting s of doc library
    Set the doc library file handling property using $docLib = $web.lists["Your Document Library Title"] $docLib.BrowserFileHandling = "Permissive" $docLib.Update()
    Added "AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeType.Add("Application/Pdf") in web app
    Installed Adober eader in client machine
    Even after trying all these, the PDF files are still opening in Client application(Adobe reader) but not in the browser
    It would have been great help if anybody provide a solution for this. I have been banging head on this for two days

    It would be handy if you didn't double post too.

    To answer your question, you've tried most things that I normally see working, but there may be an extra solution here for you.  The solution 2 Powershell that deals with updating the Inline MimeType may help.

  • HT4101 I am trying to connect my JVC Hard Disk Drive Camcorder to my IPAD 2 via the Apple camera kit. I am able to down photos, but video files not showing. Camera shows Mass Stoarge. How can I download videos please.

    I am trying to connect my JVC Hard Disk Drive Camcorder to my IPAD 2 via the Apple camera kit. I am able to download photos, but video files not showing. Camera shows Mass Stoarge. How can I download videos please?

    The file name only has 6 characters and I'm not sure what the .mod format is. So that's why they are not seen by the iPad.
    Another way to transfer. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • IPhoto files not showing up in list

    I have many photos on my new MacBook Pro, but when I try to "attach" them to emails, they are not showing up in the listing. I am a new Mac user, but so I don't know how to explain this. If this was a PC, it would be like files not showing up under "My Computer." PhotoBooth photos are listed though. Why is this?

    Then something has happened to the permission and or attribute settings on your folders to mark files saved in them as hidden.
    Try this Terminal command to show all files and you can turn it off by changing the true to false at the end of the command.
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true
    If you then see your files tere is a problem with files being market as hidden when they are saved. Create a New Folder in the Root of the drive and look at its Get Info window and post a screen shot of it in this thread.
