HTML - Hyperlinking Flash Movies?
hi everyone
I was making a site where custom flash buttons were used, and because I thought hyperlinking through html not from flash itself was more flexible, I put <a> tags around the flash objects. This method worked in Firefox, but in Internet Explorer the buttons did not work! I checked my code in Dreamweaver, and it gave me "Marked invalid because it doesn't belong inside the tag it's in.". I don't really want to link the url from inside flash movie itself. Is there a way to hyperlink it through html? Similar Tutorialsok then peeps this is the issue... i have created a page and want to play 2 separate flash files on that page... it works on ie7, safari, opera but not Mozilla it plays the 1st one but misses out on the 2nd one and dosen't show at all how mad is that??? as i said it works fine in all other browsers except Firefox... here is the code any pointers really appreciated thanks :-) <----code starts---> <td><center> <script type="text/javascript"> AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0','width','184','height','220','title','sparkle flash','src','flash/promaflexplus','quality','high','pluginspage','http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash','movie','flash/promaflexplus' ); //end AC code </script> <noscript> <object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0" width="184" height="220" title="sparkle flash"> <param name="movie" value="flash/promaflexplus.swf"> <param name="quality" value="high"> <embed src="flash/promaflexplus.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="184" height="220"></embed> </object> </noscript> </center></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="style8">Why not try our Sparkle range to make your design's look funky and modern.

Hi all, I'm having a problem hyperlinking a specific page inside a frame. My company use an old Content Management System that produce Computer Based Training (CBT). This CBT is exported as a static html program (it has a Start Here.htm and then a folders with all the content). The CBT is produced using 4 frames; a logo, Left Hand Contents menu, a Top navigation bar and then the content page itself. A think there is some java or Active X that ties all of the content pages together and populates the Left Hand Contents menu. What I want to do is to create a hyperlink so that the CBT will open and then navigate straight to the required page, with all the top and left hand navigation bars as well. I have tried to hyperlink to the content page html file, but this only loads the content page and not all the other frames. I have been told that a similar problem can happen when trying to bookmark a page in a website that uses this form/java combination and that there is a way around it. Does anyone have any ideas? Many Thanks sailormatt Hi: I wish to have set of buttons each as <td> elements in a Table. Each of these 'td' buttons should be able to play an embedded .swf flash movie. I have the code for each of the videos I wish to have 'buttonable', and have tested out that the video plays. Question: How do I set up the 'onclick' code of each of the buttons to start playing the associated video ?? Thanks ! -Mel Smith I'm not the greatest when it comes to coding a website. I'm currently using WordPress for my site and can't seem to get my logo/header to hyperlink to my homepage. Right now it's just unclickable. My site is www.BlackjackClassroom.com Any help with this issue would be very much appreciated. I usually use an <a href> tag to hyperlink things, but this is giving me trouble for some reason. Thanks! I have a jailbroken iPhone 4 and I am trying to get a flash embed to display on it but I am having a lot of trouble. i have successfully used and enabled different flash objects elsewhere but this is the only one that wont run. so I know it will work.

The only flash element is the Navigation bar at the top. With out making 2 dedicated flash/non flash sites, how do we make it so that if flash is not detected on the viewers computer then the flash navigation will not show, but instead show a java script rollover nav bar? I was thinking maybe have the flash nav in a div that floats over the image nav, and if flash is not detected it would disappear...? help would be super appreciated. -Mongoose Hi, I am currently having trouble embedding my flash file into html.

I know what I want to design, I just don't know the program to use, the file type, whether I need frames... I am new with HTML Code, CSS and Java, I have a graphic design degree focusing on image, type and layout, and very little web design. I would like to design a facebook fan page with this: http://www.htmlforums.com/attachment...7&d=1317248556 I want the header and the image slider to remain loaded and locked at all times on the page, while the slide title/number, main image, and main text FADE in seperately, when the appropriate numbnail is selected. I do not want it as a slide show, it is more of a self-guided informational tutorial. I want the image slider to be able to scroll as well. If anyone knows tutorials or websites that could help me, or have suggestions reproducing this, please let me know. Do I do this as Flash? What type of file? I have searched the internet for days looking for a tutorial that is close to what I want, and I am having no luck. I really don't even know what to call this, inorder to properly google it. Thanks in advance! I've just recently created my website with wix.com as my host, so it's all flash, but I would like to change my website to html. I really like what I have as the website so far, but I've found that it runs slow on many computers, so I was wondering if there was any way of keeping what I have(such as design etc.) but converting it to html somehow. I don't know much about web design, so any help would be greatly appreciated. (and I don't mind changing my host if it's necessary, I just want a way to be able to keep what I've worked at without having to begin from scratch.) hello im building a website for my accociate. i built a layout with tables and all that stuff. i am tryin to insert a flash document in a table. whenver i go to test it iin ie7 its stops the flash movie from opening and says Warning this site includes active x click here for more options and then you click on it and click allow. how do i get around this as i need the flash doc to open imedietly upon going to the site thanks augie Hi there, i am very very new to this website building thing. I am starting a website for my new business, it was all going well until i uploaded the website, and when i went to look at it, at the very bottom of the page it said i need to update my flash. I did and it is still saying that. I have tried from 10 different computers and still have the same problem. Am i doing something wrong with the files or something? Please help. I am also using A4Desk Website builder. here is the web address: http://uniqueplanners.netne.net/ Thanks for your time. i heard somewhere this is a war.. can I ask (not to familiar with html5) what about html5 encroaches on flash? what new elements/features? If it does compensate i know Jobbs will be pushing the hell out of it (html5) I can view the flash in my HTML script when I run it straight from my computer, but when I upload it I don't see it. I've tried it on three different web hosts. The directories are definitely correct. I don't understand why it simply won't work. This is the code I'm using to display the flash movie: PHP Code: <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0" width="580" height="150"> <param name="movie" value="menu_logo.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="high" /> <embed src="menu_logo.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="580" height="150"></embed> </object> The flash file is located in the same place as the HTML file is. ( the root ) Quick question, what kind of html5 coding would be needed to achieve this seemingly easy effect. Does someone know a tut i can start off with? Been googling but cant seem to land on the right one. Its a mouse :hover effect for a navigation menu! Thanks. Demo can be seen he http://bit.ly/wBJGst Hey guys, I just built a flash site with a lot of text/img content and I was really careful to make it all xml-based so that it would be easy to edit later. Now I want to create a very very simple backend cms for my client so that they can modify the content as well. Really, just simple html forms will be fine. What is the simplest way to modify xml data via html? Can I post data to the server in xml format? Help! |
