Uploading .swf files

I took my site off line for around 6 months and have recently
put it back on only to find a problem with uploading my flash
files. The background file activity says "file activity incomplete,
files or folders were not completed". I contacted my hosts 123-reg
and they directed me to a site to upload my flash files seperately
through net2ftp. I believe i have done this correctly but my flash
file is still not showing on my website. Can anyone help me?
Thankyou. Lynne

This sounds like an FTP problem not a Flash issue. I doubt
anyone will be able to help you here unless they have the same
uploading issues.

Can't get preview on uploaded swf file

After uploading swf file created with Camtasia Studio 6.0 as
recommended I constantly receive message "This file can not be
previewed, please download it instead". Can you help me with this?
Thank you in advance

Hello Leon_traut,
Thanks for posting.
While we are able to make previews for some files uploaded to
the Organizer, a SWF isn't one that we create a preview for with
Acrobat.com
If we are able to make a preview, we will, and it will
display. If not, then the option to download is presented as the
alternative.
What you're seeing is expected,
Hope this helps!

Upload swf files

hi!
I was wondering if it's possible to create a php script that would upload swf files and not images.
I found several examples that upload images but i want swf files to be uploaded through php in mysql database.
I appreciate any help or direction.
It should be a way isn't it?

I tried a php script that uploads images changing the image/jpg to application/swf but it doesn't work.
i even tried not to mention the filetype at all.
If you are aware of any script or tutorial i would appreciate to let me know cause i've tried many ways so far.

Uploaded swf files to website

I have two questions;
I just uploaded my swf file to my website and the file
appears as a link on the index page how do I get it to open up
directly into the file?
The file is smaller than the window, how do I resize the file
so I don't see the animation entering the stage and all the
negative space around the exterior?

are you asking how to embed a swf into a html page?

Need Help, Finding a site for uploading swf files

[moved from AS3 forum by moderator - is not an AS3 discussion]
Alright, so I'm kind of new to these forums. I searched them thoroughly several times, but couldn't a find a section for what I exactly needed. I used an older version of Flash and actionscript to make some interactive games and then exported them.
I've found plenty of sites that allow uploading of a variety of files, including flash based ones. The problem is that these sites are either for storage, downloading the file onto one's computer, or that they would have to go to a specific link to play the game.
What I want is to be able to place a file onto an uploading site and be able to embed it (I think that's the word) to my own site/forums. That way the game can be played on a site and or discussion forum, without members having to go to another site or downloading the game.
What file uploading site would you recommend for this? I've already tried several, but they don't allow embedding files. I would prefer for the site to be free, as I don't have enough files to make it worth paying a monthly fee.
Thanks in advance for any replies/information!

Yes, why not upload it to your own website. Most of sites are not support swf file, but support flv file. To upload swf to your website you can use the code like
<object width="300" height="300">
<param name="movie" value="flashmovie.swf">
<embed src="flashmovie.swf" width="300" height="300">
</embed>
</object>
If you really need to upload swf to other websites, I think you need to convert your video but that will not a game. But maybe you can try to find some flash game websites.

Location to upload and share .SWF files?

is there a location to upload .SWF files to share similar to what youtube does for videos?
Thanks.

Ah, that probably wont work out too well then, considering the community
there has both high standards and a love of inside jokes. If you have some
kind of ftp site you can have them upload the files into that, and then go
to the urls of the respective projects (for example"
http://www.exampleftp.net/studentname/project1.html")
That would probably be the best way to do it that way it keeps the students
work in a closed network, getting feedback mainly from their peers, as well
as filters out any kind of spam/offensive/generic "this sucks" type comments
community based sites tend to run into a lot. Also, the work they upload to
the ftp site can be viewed from any computer. Your best bet is probably to
use Dreamweaver to set up the server and uploading their files. That's how
I did it when I took a class in Flash web design last semester. Hope this
helps, and I'm sure someone on the Adobe boards can help with setting up the
FTP site, since it's still something I have all that much experience with.
That or a tutorial could work too.

How can I get my swf files playing on browser?

Hello,
I've been designing my first website and have used dreamweaver, which is very new to me. I've followed a very good beginners guide to making websites and all was well. However, it had nothing about uploading swf files. So I did some research, and found that the easiest way was to insert them into a div box using the media section and choosing swf. again all was well, I can preview it in chrome etc.. and all works fine.
I've come to uploading my site and I've used filezilla, uploaded all the files but I can't see the swf playing on the website. I've looked into it and I just can't find the answer. I've tried uploading them directly into the root folder as well but that doesn't work.
Can somebody please help me!!
here are the links:
www.creativecanvassing.co.uk = the swf should be positioned between the orange logo and the "national direct marketing company' text. There is also the section in picture which has the same problem
not too sure how to attach the copy of the file that shows its all working
Thanks

Hello,
are you really sure that you have uploaded this page with contents? I've got this, when calling this link: http://www.creativecanvassing.co.uk/pictures.html:
Your swf file is running in my IE8 like a charm in all your other pages.

Need Your Help with Swapping SWF files

Hello,
I am need to swap Two SWF files. I am acheving this by make
one swf as a holder. call it main.fla main.swf file. Embed that
file into my html document. In that file I placed one button with
the
following action :
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("second.swf", 1);
in that file have a button with action to load the 3rd file :
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("3rd.swf", 1);
by loading them in same level (1) they will replace each
other. My problem is that my SWF files obtain some information
using combination of PHP and XML file. I have noticed when I place
the SWF with it’s required PHP and XML in separate folders
the SWF file is uploaded (swapped) but since the PHP files are NOT
run by the server my dynamically generated XML files are empty and
therefore the uploaded SWF file has not information expect the SWF
file. Is there any way to get round this problem?
Thank you in advance for your help and hope you have a great
day.
Cheers,
Babak

Embed that file in your html document. In that file place
button with the
following action :
on (release) {
loadMovieNum("second.swf", 1);
in that file have a button with action to load the 3rd file :
on (release) {

Pretty simple..uh ?

Swf files appearing in preview (D8) but not n browser after uploading - frustrated!

Hello,
I have worked with Flash and Dreamweaver on the side for a
number of years. We all know that after the recent changes, the way
it handles object and embed tags has changed to favor Java
actionscripts instead.
This code I am about to paste was created using Dreamweaver
8.02, with transitional (x) html. Now mind you, this is not the
prettiest piece of code you've ever seen. I now am learning to use
CSS layouts instead of layers/tables, with php and flash
integrated. This one example is not the only time I have had this
problem however.
I made a silly flash banner (its actually a placeholder for a
better one I have to develop) for testing purposes and sizing. It
appears fine in Firefox, and IE6 in the preview mode via
Dreamweaver. When I upload it all to the site, the flash banner
does not appear.
I have tried copying the FLA and SWF files to the root folder
(the fla, swf, and html files generated are all present), and tried
a number of variations in the code and parameters to no avail. The
darn thing just won't appear now. Similarly older pages I have
created that Dreamweaver now prompts you to "fix the object tag
that may not work in IE7...etc" have the same issue. If I select
"go ahead and fix them for me", they are visible in production, but
gone after uploading.
Now to remove the possibility that this was a layering or
parent tag issue of visibility, I created a blank HTML page and
"insert/media/flash" and stuck the banner in there, then uploaded
it to my server. It doesn't appear.
I need help. I have been scouring the web for a few days now
to no avail and have become quite frustrated with what used to be a
really easy integration of Flash and html.
Here is the top chunk of code from the page in question: (the
page is live with the missing banner here:

help.

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
current html doc, same result.
8. Tried viewing on a pc, same result. Created on mac.
Here is the test page if anyone wants to take a look.
THANKS FOR ANY ADVISE.
Test
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.

Uploading html files with .swf files in them

I created a website and published it in Flash. I then used
Dreamweaver to create the HTML file that I would upload to my
server. But, when I go to my site, the .swf file does not load.
Both the HTML file and the .swf file were uploaded using an
FTP client, so I don't know why it's not showing up.

Don't know if this will fix it for you but when we went
through this we had to tell the server to allow .fla, .swf and .flv
files. Until we did this it didn't show the flash part of the
website.

SWF File Doesn't Upload Completely

I am taking a Flash class and we are using a book to make flash projects. I am suppose to upload my SWF files on to a website, but whenever I do, the file uploads incompletely, in other words, it is missing some components. In the project, we worked with Action Script to load images. The SWF works fine when I play it on my computer, but when I upload it, it doesnt work completely. Here's my SWF File that I uploaded: http://www.wix.com/andooh/Test According to the Action Script I followed, it's suppose to load images on the home button. How I see it, the images are in a separate folder but can be reach from the Action Script when it plays on my computer. However, when I separate the SWF file from the other files the Action Script is suppose to read it doesnt work. I was wondering if anyone knows what's wrong.

Did you uploaded the images?

Dreamweaver Cs6 Uploading to remote server to web-host,the.swf files do not load on the webpage

all the content works fine with the file path being the computers harddrive :/C "etc"
once i upload to webhosting server all the swf files don't work.
My website is fully complete and ready to go on the web can someone help me and tell me why my content is not showing.
the webhosting customer service rep told me i need to upload with media files checked? im like i never heard of that lol.

The links in the webpage all point to your local hard drive
<param name="movie" value="file:///C|/Users/lol/Documents/Website flash art 5.swf" />
No-one can see these links except you.
This suggests that you have not defined a site in Dreamweaver
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/first_website_pt1.html
Is this the case?

PPT swf file upload problem. Image is massive

I am having a problem putting my PPT swf file into my meeting room. I used iSpring to convert it into the swf file and the converted file opens in flashplayer perfectly with the navigation bar at the bottom. When I load it into my meeting room, it's huge and won't fit into the room properly. I can't seem to resize it to get it all in the share pod at the same time. Even if I make the share pod tiny, it still only show about 2/3 of a tiny presentation.
Any help you could offer would be appreciated. A different program to convert? A different way of getting it into the meeting room? I am on day two of this and it is making my head hurt.

It sounds like a caching problem.
Try disabling caching in your JSP and also in your internet browser.
Check out the following thread for more info.

The site is running over https with a self signed ssl-cert, if that matters. If I try to upload a file, the browser just quickly reloades the page, the filename still in the input field. The file isn't uploaded and the page that the script should display when completed doesn't show neither.
Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this? I'm not getting any errors, it just doesn't work..

I haven't used Websphere before so I can't say much about that. Try putting <%@ page language="Java" %> at the top of your jsp page.
Try putting your java files into a package and see if that helps. I read somewhere that Tomcat once had issues with running classes that weren't in a package. Make sure to put the package statement at the top of your Java files if you do.
Websphere says it caught an unhandled exception. Instead of having your method throw and Exception put your code in a try-catch block and then print a stack trace to see if it says anything when it trys to read and write data.
Try{
    PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("doUpload.txt")));
    ServletInputStream in = request.getInputStream();
    int a=0;
    a=in.read();
    while (a!= -1){
        pw.print((char) a);
        a=in.read();
    pw.close();
}catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}Sorry I can't really give you more help.
