Using Dreamweaver MX to edit pages with Flash 9 Actionscript 3

I designed a site using CS3 and used Actionscript 3 and Flash
9 for a banner on the site.
The site pages will now be edited and updated by the owners
who have Dreamweaver MX 2004.
Is there going to be any problems or errors that can be
expected regarding the Flash banner/Actionscript? The owner will
not be editing the banner just updating some page content.
Thanks for your help

No problem.
If they aren't updating that part of the page then nothing
will be
altered in terms of the code so it will continue to work.
A page is only html and can be edited in any html editor or
text editor.
I don't know how the owners are going to update the pages but
of course
by giving them access to all of the code they can ruin
everything if
they don't know what their doing........theres nothing you
can do about
that unless you create some sort of Content Management
System, which
only allows them to alter specific parts of the code.

  • [FP 11.4 & FF 14.0.1] Firefox hang on every page with flash-content

    Hi at all
    I have a problem with the new Flash Player, let me explain it:
    We have a windows-domain with software distribution via GPO.
    Since update to 11.4 via the msi package (11.3 was previously installed) we have in the meanwhile 3 PCs (all Win7 x32 with FF 14.0.1 and Flash 11.4) with this problem:
    - While loading a page with Flash content, the Firefox simply freezes and have to be killed together with plugin-container in order to work again.
    If this happens, ff and plugin-container have 0% cpu-usage. It freezes and does nothing...
    If I remove Flash: Web-pages are working, but without flash.
    What I've tried:
    reinstall using flash-uninstaller
    Using "normal" end-user web-installer
    Uninstall via Uninstaller and tried 11.3 again
    reinstall Firefox, both 14 and 13
    Nothing helped to bring Flash-support back.
    This happens only on FF, Internet Explorer is working fine...
    Can someone give me a hint?

    The key here will be to determine what is different between the machines that work and those that hang.  Of all the systems that fail, they are all Windows 7 32bit?
    Yep, this issue only happens on Windows 7 32-bit machines, currently 6.
    Do you have any 32bit systems that don't fail?
    Yep, the most Windows 7 32-bit machines wont fail.
    What about hardware, are there similarities here?  Attached devices/drivers?  Software that is running at the time?
    These machines are all from DELL. They all have normal hardware, nothing special. Other machines from same type does not affected. Software: All have standard software distributed via Software-distribution (GPO). Only some PCs have special software, but it is not running. No special drives, too.
    Maybe try booting Windows in safe mode to see if it still hangs?
    Good idea, indeed - I will try this.
    We're definitely interested in what's going on.  I'll ask our security and Mozilla folks to see if they have additional clues.
    Thanks!
    EDIT:
    Safe mode: Flash is working! (without disabled Protected Mode!)
    I've set msconfig now to: Custom system start and deselected the boxes to load systemservices and system start elements.
    So, now windows does a non-safe mode boot but no service or element was loaded except the drivers (right?). Flash is not working with this config!
    So, whats the difference between safe mode and normal boot with minimal configuration (see attached picture).
    Only drivers will be loaded, right? If so, I can exclude the network and graphics driver as source: graphics driver are updated right now and network was working in safe-mode.
    Any new ideas?

  • Firefox crashes when loading any page with flash. I have tried all available fixes including plugin updates. If I disable flash the crashes stop, but no flash.

    Firefox crashes on any page with flash. I have the most recent version of Firefox on OSX Snow Leopard. I have made sure that I have all the most recent plugins and extensions and I am not running any custom theme. I have completely un-installed and re-installed Firefox and flash to no avail. I think the problem is in some user preference, but I cannot seem to find it. If I log out and use a different user on my machine, Firefox does not have the flash crash problem.
    == Crash ID(s) ==
    ??

    JYOuyang: I have the correct plugin for Flash. My problem is not the "Flash crashed" icon, which would be generally acceptable, but FIREFOX crashing, usually rather dramatically. I have since regressed to Firefor 3.6.3. I am still using Flash 10.1, the newest version. This no longer causes Firefox to crash. Now then -- if the same plugin causes no crashes in the new version of Firefox and does cause crashes in the prior version, it is not exactly a humongous leap to conclude that maybe, just maybe, there was a bug introduced in Firefox 3.6.4? I mean, it's not as if a major feature of 3.6.4 was a significant change in how plugins interact with the browser or anything... oh, wait, there was, wasn't there? Hmmm. Saying "It's Adobe's fault!" rings a little hollow when the 10.1 plugin works correctly in the prior version of Firefox. Any kind of host/plugin model relies on a contract between the host and the plugin, and when there's a crash, it indicates one side or the other broke that contract. Under the circumstances, it's difficult not to suspect the blame for this lies on the Firefox side. It's certainly possible that Adobe's code IS broken and the problem is that it SHOULD work with the new version of Firefox, if it were properly written, but it's not, so it doesn't. However, no one seems to want to dig down to find out or provide a workaround other than regressing to 3.6.3, so that's what I've done -- Firefox does too many other things right for me to switch browsers at this point.

  • Firefox wont make a new tab while i'm on a page with flash elements.

    Whenever i'm on a page with flash elements I cannot make a new tab by hitting Ctrl+T. though Ctrl+click on a link and selecting New Tab from the menue still works. if I have 2 tabs open and one with flash I can go the one without flash on the page and use Ctrl+T make a new tab.

    If a plugin has focus then that plugin handles all key presses, so you can't open a new tab via the keyboard unless you first set focus outside that Flash object.

  • Shockwave plugin is set to "Never Activate". All pages with flash still work?

    shockwave plugin is set to "Never Activate".
    All pages with flash still run automatic.
    I just updated Shockwave to 12.1.7
    Before doing this the "Never Activate" worked.

    Just to make it a little more confusing, Adobe has two similarly named plugins:
    * Shockwave Flash (current major version is 17) -- this is the Flash player -- https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    * Shockwave for Director (current major version is 12) -- only the rare site uses this one -- https://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
    I'm assuming both are set to "Never Activate" because the site wasn't able to detect either of them (see the More System Details link next to your post).
    So probably sites are using some other method to play the media. If you right-click it (or Mac equivalent!), do you get a different plugin menu, or the standard Firefox context menu?

  • Flash Player flickering in IE8 on pages with Flash

    We're having a problem with Flash 10.1 on an Windows XP Pro 32bit machine and all pages with associated flash content flickering when you scroll the page.  This has been happening with the most recent version as well as older versions.
    Machine: Dell Optiplex GX620
    Windows XP PRO 32bit
    Explorer 8
    Flash 10.1 (latest)
    I have uninstalled & reinstalled Flash and all other Adobe products several times.
    I have updated the video drivers
    I have disabled / reenabled H/W acceleration
    I have run IE8 w/ the no Add-on option and it does not flicker (obviously)
    Now what's very odd is if I log the user account off and log in with admin credentials, I get NO flickering at all on any pages with flash content.  However any user account that does not have admin rights on the machine has the flickering problem.  We have several hundred machines in the building and this is the only one having this issue.
    I also noticed that after uninstalling flash and then reinstalling it, and then trying to install Shockwave - I got an "sw.cab blocked - unknown publisher" error which I'm guessing means that Adobe is not being correctly registered on the machine when product is installed.
    ANY THOUGHTS ON THIS MATTER WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

    Still haven't solved this problem but I've noticed the flickering happening in IE8 as well. Every few seconds it sounds like a click-event is firing. The flickering occurs even when the project is paused. Essentially the user hear's a "click" sound and the page flashes to white and seems to reload, however it doesn't effect the timeline of the project. That being said its extremely distracting and certainly a huge bug of some sort as it is only happening in various versions of IE. We're testing on XP, but I would imagine its doing the same on other versions of the Windows OS.
    Could it have something to do with the fact that there's a separate flash player for IE? What's going on here?

  • Chrome, Firefox, IE all crash when leaving page with flash

       Hi,
      I am running XP with SP 2 on a Intel Core Duo Dell machine. These are coporate machines. I've had two in the past two weeks and both are giving me the same error.
       After installing the latest flash player, all browsers are able to load a flash page. However, when leaving that page for another, all browsers stop responding. They don't crash, they merely freeze.
       Chrome indicates that the flash plugin has crashed and would I like to terminate it. The others simply stall.
       I've uninstalled, re-installed, rebooted.. etc.
       Interestingly enough, a fellow coworker who appears to have the same machine as I, does not have this problem.
       Any ideas on how to debug this ?
       Thanks
       J

    i seem to have the same problem too....
    chrome tells me that Shockwave plugin has become unresponse then says its crashed....
    Firefox becomes unresponsive (i've left it in that state for quite a while..result nothing)
    i uninstall flash using the uninstaller provided from adobe (or from add and remove programs, tried both options) and browsers run perfectly fine... of course access to flash content lost since i need the plugin...!
    I'm running Vista Home Edition SP2
    antivirus - AVG Free
    particular websites that i use (all of them with flash content crash!!!) and that crash EVERY time - youtube, bbc.co.uk, facebook, gmail, f1-live.com, all sites with flash crash!!
    i've tried everything i could find on firefox forums, chrome forums, and here... nothing works... now i'm gonna revert to flash 8 and try... hopefully adobe will respond to this problem... its not jus one or two who are facing this problem...!!

  • Installing and using Adobe Air SDK 2.5 with Flash Professional CS4

    Hi,
    I am trying to install the Air SDK 2.5 with Flash Professional CS4 with the intention of creating a program to use Actionscript 3 to communicate with the UDP interface using datagrams. (The server is the IL2 device link interface) As I am very new to this development environment I was wondering if anyone could answer a few questions.
    1) Can I use datagram sockets with Air 2.5 with Actionscript 3 and Flash CS4?
    2) Is there special procedure for installing the AIR SDK 2.5 or do I use the instructions layout in "How to Overlay the Adobe Air 2 SDK for Use with Flash Professional - Flash professional CS4"?
    3) If I do use those instructions, when I edit the namespace for my application do I set it to 2.0 or 2.5?
    4) As a stepping stone to building my program I was trying to try to build the Actionscript 3  DatagramSocketExample program that is published by Adobe. Unfortunately I am getting a '1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: DatagramSocketDataEvent'.
    Is there a step by step tutorial on how to get the example code up and running?
    Thankyou for your time and patience with my noob questions
    Ian

    This was part of the AIR 2.0 beta release note, but I used this for 2.5 and it works nice.
    You can try it too an make sure you use 2.5 wherever the not says 2.0beta2.
    Goodluck.
    How to Update Flash CS4 to Use the AIR 2 Beta SDK
    If you use Flash CS4 Professional to build Adobe AIR applications, please follow the instructions below to manually update the version of the AIR SDK to use version 2.0.
    Update Flash CS4 Professional to version 10.0.2 at http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/downloads.html or select "Help > Updates... " from within Flash CS4.
    Quit Flash CS4 Professional if it is open.
    Navigate to the Flash CS4 installation folder. The default location on Windows is "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS4\" and on Mac OS "/Applications/Adobe Flash CS4/"
    Within the "Adobe Flash CS4" folder you should see a folder called "AIK1.5". If this folder is not present repeat step #1.
    Rename the folder "AIK1.5" to "AIK1.5 OLD" or delete it if you do not need to save a copy of it.
    Make a new folder called "AIK1.5"
    Download the Adobe AIR 2 SDK from the labs website and uncompress the contents of the folder to the new "AIK1.5" folder you just created.
    Copy the "airglobal.swc" file located within the "Adobe Flash CS4/AIK1.5/frameworks/libs/air/" folder into the "Adobe Flash CS4/Common/Configuration/ActionScript 3.0/AIR1.5/" folder.
    Flash CS4 is now configured to use the AIR 2 beta 2 SDK.
    In order to take advantage of the new AIR 2 beta 2 features, you will need to update your application descriptor file to use the "2.0beta2" namespace.

  • Passing values to iframed page with flash chart.

    Hi,
    I'm trying to dynamically generate a series of charts within a sql report.
    In my report i make several calls to a page with a (flash) chart and i pass some values to this page/chart by setting page items through the source url of the iframe.
    The problem is that all the iframed instances of the page in my report display the same data although each iframe sets specific page item values through its source url.
    (only the page item values that were set by the last call to the page are being used by all the other chart instances)
    So why does this happen?
    Are the iframed charts rendered to slow?
    Is this a flash problem?
    Should i call each iframe within a seperate session?
    And does anyone know how to correctly pass values to the iframed page / chart so each instance of the page/chart displays the correct data?
    Thanks
    Niels

    Solved my problem by leaving the SESSION part blank in the src url of the iframe.
    Apex creates a new session for every iframe now, the page items values are not overwritten and the data is displayed correctly.

  • Firefox is constantly freezing up, and I can't get it going again until I close pluginscontainer.exe which, when freezing, is quite large (sometimes even as big as 300MB). What is causing this? It seems to happen on pages with Flash.

    I have already tried reinstalling Firefox, using both the BETA and Stable releases. I've cleared all of my plugins and started over with them, reinstalling Flash multiple times as well. After an uninstallation, I even went as far as deleting Mozilla from my Appdata folder on my user account and from Program Files to assure complete uninstallation.
    This crash happens multiple times in a day, I can't go 20 minutes of browsing without this happening.
    Also, there are multiple instances of plugin-container.exe running (right now, 5).
    Thank you so much for your help, this issue has been driving me up the wall and I just could not get it to stop.

    There is a known issue where multiple instances of plugin container open if history or cookies are cleared. Are you, or some utility clearing firefox cookies or history, that could be the reason. This problem continues even if plugins are disabled in Firefox.
    *Are you opening multiple instances of Flash Player ?
    * Is the problem reproducible ? <br/> for instance does it always crash the plugin or cause it to hang if you use a particular site ?
    If you get the FlashPlayer plugin crashing use the option to submit the crash reports, it is then possible to follow them up. It is possible to stop the plugincontainer opening, but that could result in a firefox crash. Of course the firefox crash can also send crash reports out, and that could be useful.
    * see [[plugin crash reports]]
    * [[what is plugin-container]]
    * [[firefox crashes]]
    There are some problems with FlashPlayer currently under investigation, and there may be other threads in the forum about problems. (e.g. Bug 561019 - Plugin waveOutOpen hangs )
    Sometimes using Firefox 3.6 is a workaround that helps with FlashPlayer problems, if you wish to experiment with that consider installing firefox Portable and using Firefox 3.6.23 (or soon 3.6.24) for tests with flash player, whilst keeping firefox 7 for day to day browsing.

  • Win8.1/Chrome 64bit: NPAPI Flash Player crashes on every page with Flash content

    Hi,
    Chrome 64bit (beta+) crashes on Win8.1 64bit, if I use the NPAPI Flash Player (v15 beta or v14 stable) and open a website with Flash content.
    More details here:
    https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=402262

    Turning off NPAPI in Chrome 64-bit will be a very bad move. I'm using a Windows 7 Setup, with a Core2Quad 65 nm CPU and a pathetic Geforce GT 8500 GPU that is basically worthless. PPAPI  flash betas are available as a standalone now at this point, but I have done lots of side by side comparisons, and the PPAPI plugin is absolute garbage compared to the far superior Netscape architecture based plugin. I'm not the only one saying that. I have found loads of forums, and instruction videos online to fix Chrome video playback on youtube for instance. I have to install "Magic Actions for Youtube" addon for chrome so that I can disable HTML5. then I have to go into the plugins menu on chrome and disable pepper flash. I keep the 64 bit flash betas regularly updated this way, and I am getting peak performance. Once in a blue moon it will crash, but I think that is Google's fault. HTML5 should not be the default option in youtube. Compared to Flash, it does not have great GPU acceleration ability, and HTML5 in 64-bit doesn't even perform superior to 32 bit web browsers, where as 64 bit flash is a leap forward, as long as it's the NPAPI version, that is. Problems I have with the HTML5 and also Pepperflash are very similar.   The audio is out of sync with video, and the cpu is maxed out from memory leaking. I'm skipping frames and seeing glitches left and right. The seek functions in pepperflash never work right on youtube, you have to click an inch before wherever you want the video to play. On and on. Pepper flash has audio crackle. You can't get rid of the crackle from pepper flash or HTML 5. Yet, with NPAPI 64 bit flash beta in 64 bit chrome canary it plays PERFECTLY. once in a while I have it crash, which i think is the fault of the fact that I have to use an add on to force off HTML5. Why would I want html5, when flash NPAPI  64 bit produces superior picture quality on all quality settings. It's better in every conceivable way. Shame on Google for not putting more care into 64-bit flash on 64-bit Chrome. It couldn't possibly be a more important deal! You can tell pepperflash and HTML 5.0 are an afterthought. It's only youtube playback quality. why would that matter to google? OMG...  
    While I'm at it, I have one other issue that blows my mind. Adding command line flags in Chrome 64-bit (Canary) in Windows. Why do we have to add them through a shortcut in the "target" line? The target line runs out of space after 3 or 4 commands! I wish they would update Chrome Canary to allow for unlimited command lines to be added. It should be an option to add Command Lines on the About:Flags screen. I am so disappointed in these two glaring issues. It keeps me up at night.   

  • Firefox crashes on pages with Flash content

    MacOS 10.6.5 on a 2008 MacBook Pro
    Firefox 3.6.13
    See below for Flash Player version info
    Well I just updated to a new version of Firefox (3.6.13) and I had Flash Player 10.1 installed. Every time I open any web site with Flash content, Firefox crashes. This happens with Yahoo Mail, CNN, New York Times, etc. So I disabled Flash temporarily, and my Yahoo Mail no longer crashed. Of course I can't watch any online videos now....
    I tried uninstalling Flash Player 10.1 using the Adobe uninstaller, and then re-installing it. No go. I tried the beta 10.2... still crashed. Finally I found a version of Flash 9 for Mac on Adobe's web site, and that does indeed work. Of course it's an older version, but at least I can use Firefox. The bad news is that the plugin is used by Safari also.
    Any ideas?

    I tried something else for now, since I'm using Flash Player 9 on my main system hard drive at the moment....
    I have a bootable 48GB SSD in my ExpressCard slot. I often use it since it's faster. It has the same configuration of Firefox 3.6.13 and FlashPlayer 10.1, but it seems to have no problems. I right clicked a Flash animation and the hardware acceleration in on. Now why would it work on my SSD drive, but not my main hard drive?

    Sorry, I really don´t have a clue... Thanks!

    Sorry to say, but that is not a webpage -
    There is no doctype, no head section, no body section .

    Nothing would work in that document.
    Please generate a properly formed HTML page, and place the scripts and script calls in the proper section and the rest in the body, and let's see what you get
