swf doesn't appear on browser!

[Tomassi]

well, you need a flash player in your browser and active x should be activated with a click ( I think) in explorer... upload the swf so we can test it

[arr05048559]

alright here is the link to download my swf movie file
Swf Mofie File

[Tomassi]

Well, it works here, black themed menu with preloader.

Now can you post the code that you are using to call the swf?

[arr05048559]

[Tomassi]

try this code:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="yourflashfile.swf" width="750" height="150">
    <param name="movie" value="images/flash.swf" />
    <img src="images/flash.jpg" width="750" height="150" alt="" />
</object>

I tried your code
but when I open the IE ,it says :
"Press spacebar or enter to activate and use this control"
and when I press on it, nothing appears
I click right-click and there are 2 options which says;
"movie not loaded" and "about flash player 9"
what is wrong now? help me out

[Tomassi]

Did you save it for flash player 9?
7 is better and you dont have anything in there that needs the newest player.
I can load the movie when placed in a .html file,
till it cantfind the xml file where all the content probably comes from

[arr05048559]

my flash player is 7!
and what's now about xml?
what do you suggest I have to do?
HMP

[Tomassi]

The preloader is telling me that there is an xml file that needs to be loaded, I cant see if that really is the case though

[arr05048559]

let's say it's the case
what should I do

[Tomassi]

make sure that the xml file gets loaded correctly, check path etc.

try to make the .swf file with no xml file included and see if that does work, if thats the case you know where the problem is

[arr05048559]

sorry but I just started learning dreamweaver I need more details
and another question: how can I put plugins in IE Add-on ?
or to be specific what should I do when only the IE got problems loading the swf?

[Tomassi]

Dreamweaver? I'm talking about flash...

http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome
if the animation plays in IE it works, if not do what it says

[arr05048559]

it is working
but i'm trying to do it offline
the code for swf works only if I'm online beacuse of the codebase
if I'm open IE offline the swf won't appear

[Tomassi]

Don't know exactly what you mean here, the code I gave you doesn't refer to anything online, so it should work, you 're probably better off setting a localhost.

[arr05048559]

I think I found the problem or maybe not
If You go in IE tools->Manage Add-ons->
the table shows that there is no Shockwave Flash Object
tell me how can I put tis file called Flash9b.ocx?? into the Add-on list
please help

[Tomassi]

hmph, I googled it and found a couple of forum threads about that thing

on adobe it explains some more about it, it is essential

http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforu...read=y#4408437

[arr05048559]

so does it solve the problem when I install the latest IE 7?

[Tomassi]

Try firefox
www.mozilla.org

[joseph.oliver88]
