Argh! Front page sucks :-P

I've been "learning" flash here lately so i can make a lil intro for my band page.... but for osme reason I can't get the flash to show up when publishin with front page..... (I know html, but FP is just so much quicker :-P )


Well anyway, I saved the file as a .swf ........ but that wouldn't display when i inserted it into the page??????? hmmmm.... going to mess around with it more.... probably something stupid i'm doing :-P but still...

I have it as a GIF now.... but that not the same.... I need the flash stuff thingy :-P

preview your movie in html. lok at the source, and copy it into your website using notepad or some other simple text editor.

try this code:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="109" height="17">
<param name="movie" value="file://filename">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<embed src="file://filenameandlocation.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="109" height="17"></embed>
</object>

just replace filename with the filename and filename and loaction with the file name and loacation IE: //test.swf or whatever the location is and file is

if you cant get it to work, jsut pm me

[TeamR]

well, if he just copies the code in the preview he wont have to change anything. just make sure the swf is in the same folder as the html doc

Wasn't able to get it to work your way Mr. Vulcan. But i did it TeamR's way and it workd. the code was very similar however, just one thing diffrent i think.

Im glad you got it working

P.S.
I didnt see TeemR's post until after I posted mine, thought might as well leave it for you to use
