Hello everyone as you can tell i just got her. Im looking for some help with a huge problem thats been bugging me an took me 4 hours of research to get no where.

The problem:
Whenever i try and embed flash in a web page (Flash and Dreamweaver CS3) when i preview it no problems.
When i upload it, no flash appears, there should be a banner top and bottom an a flv flash movie in the middle.
Nothing works. Even embedding a youtube video creates the same problem.
Firefox also says you need a new version of flash but i have the newest version. An for others it does nothing

www.tosographics.com

I get errors when i do a validation check all the same but for the different flash components

"The Tag: "embed" is Not found in currently active versions

what do i do, im getting loads more problems i might be able to solve but this is the painful one.
When i start a new html document what do i use xhtml or html what please please help.

I will provide the code is someone thinks that will be of any use.

Also if the code is asked for i would greatly appreciate someone fixing it for me posting it back in here an showing me where i went wrong im totally new to HTML

When i start a new document i have many choices but which one do i use for embedded flash to work properly with no errors

doctype:

none
html 4.01 Strict
html 4.01 Transitional
xhtml 1.0 Strict
xhtml 1.0 Transitional
xhtml 1.1

I have uploaded a video on to putfile but they dont display anycode for me to embed th e video into my site. So i opend up the page source and found the code they are using to embed the video on there page and i copyed and pasted this code onto my site and it was working fine. About 20 minutes latter i checked the site again and the video was not working so i checked there page source again and they had changed the src url of the video. How come they do this? and is there any way round this?

Before anyone says i cannot upload to sites like youtube because my video doesnt display properly since it has to open in a windows media player.

The Best Html Code For Embeded Video

Similar Tutorials

View Content

Hello folks,
I don't know almost anything about html code. I was using this simple html code for years, anytime I needed to stream one of my videos.

<html>

<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body bgcolor=="000000">

<table width="1280" height="736" align="center">
<tr>
<td><embed src="BGI.mov" height="736" width="1280" align="middle"controller="true"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Video file has name BGI.mov and is located in the same folder as html.
The problem is, that it takes forever for video to download, sometimes 6-8 minutes.

here is the URL of html page: http://www.bcoutback.com/videos/bgi.html

I have talked to QuickTime guys and they did not find anything wrong with the file and they suggested that this HTML code is no longer good. Apparently, there is now completely different way of embeding video files and it has to do with applying functions. So I am wondering if someone could give me some simple advise how to write this simple code in the modern way. Please, keep in mind that I am complete html beginner.
Thank you so much for your help.

Black Border On Flash Video

I assume that this should not be in the Flash section as it seems as the threads there are discussing problems within the Flash program, not putting Flash videos on your webpage.

Anyway, I put my flash video on my website and it has black borders on the left and right sides of the video. I would like to remove them, but I don't know a whole lot about flash video parameters. Could anyone tell me how to do this? Here's my code for the index page:

Html5 Video Degrade To Flash

I am a relative newcomer to HTML5, and love it, especially the ability to use video more easily. I am trying this out with the ability to gracefully degrade to Flash for those browsers that do not support the <video> element, and thought that this would work:-
Code:

<video width="640" height="480" controls>

	<source src="videos/coots.ipad.mp4"  type="video/mp4" />

    <source src="videos/coots.webmvp8.webm"  type="video/webm" />

	<source src="videos/coots.theora.ogv"  type="video/ogg" />

	<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="640" height="480" id="movie_name" align="middle">
    <param name="movie" value="videos/coots.swf.swf"/>
    <!--[if !IE]>-->
    <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="videos/coots.swf.swf" width="550" height="400">
        <param name="movie" value="videos/coots.swf.swf"/>

        </a>
    <!--[if !IE]>-->
    </object>
    <!--<![endif]-->
</object>

</video>

It seems to work fine in Firefox and Opera, but Chrome (surprisingly) seems to ignore it, as does (unsurprisingly) IE8. I have been puzzling over it for a couple of days now and can't see the solution.

I know the solution will be quite obvious when I see it, but I am just to close to it at present to be able to figure it out...

How Do I Specify The Placement Of A Flash Video On A Page?

I want to have a FLASH video overlay an image (the first frame of the video). How to I do this?

I've tried using the <NAME> tag and the <ID> tag. Neither works, or I'm not coding them correctly.

To view the video I'm working with click on this URL:

http://RDStouffer.net/geyser/

The above directory contains three items - geyser.jpg, index.html and geyser.swf

Here is the relevant HTML code--

<IMG SRC="geyser.jpg" WIDTH="320" HEIGHT="240" BORDER="0" ALT="Sawmill geyser">

<OBJECT CLASSID='clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000'
WIDTH='320' HEIGHT='240'><PARAM NAME=MOVIE VALUE='geyser.swf'><PARAM NAME=QUALITY VALUE=HIGH><PARAM NAME=BGCOLOR VALUE=#FFFFFF></OBJECT>

How do I modify this code so the SWF video clip plays on top of the geyser.jpg image rather than next to it?

Thank you for your help.

I am having a problem with my site on IE 6. It's weird because I downgraded my browser to IE 6 so that I can detect these kinds of problems but it looks fine on my computer but weird on others.

Heres my issue....

On IE 6, after the movie loads up, it stops loading the rest of the html after the video. So right after the video,the rest of the coding won't load. It works on every other browser but I want to try to get it to work on IE 6 because a lot of people still use it.

Here is one of my video pages http://webtvdeluxe.com/v2/videos/Jones%20vs%20Trinidad/

Hello!

I am trying to replace my existing flash videos with newer ones. These newer videos I converted from Quicktime to swf. I replaced the video file name with the newer video file name and it uploaded fine.

There are a couple problems though. It doesn't have the Play, Stop, etc controls at the bottom and it is on a loop.

Here is the link to the new video:

http://www.swingmangolf.com/isokinetics.swf

Here is the code with the new video:

How do I get the controls to show up and to stop it from playing over and over!?!?!

I'm adding a flash games page to my site. My question is - I have a swf file (say for pac-man), how do I put it in the html? Is this even how one goes about putting a flash game on a page?

I've also tried this: I've seen a game that I want - then I've just looked at the source info - then copied the part that "is" the game... like say this:

Quote:
<object classid "clsid87CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="400" height="400">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.flashstash.com/media/swf/catch33.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<embed src="http://www.flashstash.com/media/swf/catch33.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" menu="v" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="400"></embed>
</object>
...and just pasted that in an html page, to see if it would work and it did. But, when I do that, is it actually just linking from that page and playing on my screen? What's the right way to go?

Can anyone help me?

Embedded Flash File Not Working In Safari/firefox

You may have seen this question before, but I cannot for the life of me find an answer that works.

I embedded a .swf flash file on a page on my website. This flash plays perfectly on IE and Chrome, but nothing shows up on Safari or Firefox.

I, at first, wrote the code by hand. Then I instead used swfobject to properly write the code (this still hasn't fixed the problem)

I used the w3 markup validation site to check the code, and it comes back with 0 errors.

Any Ideas?

The code is below:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<title></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="posthink.swf"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.registerObject("myFlashContent", "9.0.0");
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<object classid="clsid: D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="550" height="400" id="myFlashContent">
<param name="movie" value="posthink.swf" />
</object>
</div>
</body>
</html>

(I inserted a space in the classid= tag to do away with the : D turning into a smiley)

Thanks for your help.

Embeded Url In Html Object?

Okay, that may sound like a funny title, but here is the deal.

I have an MP3 player on my website. The original file is attached to this post. You must, if you want to test it, include it as a file in your domain.

Anyway, here is the code for it. Please let me warn you that I use BBCode in my forum. HTML I do not allow, so what I have to do is take the original HTML code and place it in the text area, then use BBCode to make it work. My initial example which works!

Code:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="mp3player/emff_lila_info.swf" width="200" height="55">
      <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain">
      <param name="movie" value="mp3player/emff_lila_info.swf" />
      <param name="quality" value="high">
      <param name="FlashVars" value="src={URL}" />
      <embed src="mp3player/emff_lila_info.swf" quality="high" name="lilaplayer" allowscriptaccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" align="middle" width="200" height="55">
    </object>
<br>
<small>MP3 by: cisco007</small>

Please note this line:
Code:

<param name="FlashVars" value="src={URL}" />

The {URL} is the indicator that I use to type the location of the MP3 file. For example http://MyWebSite/FolderOne/FolderTwo/FolderThree.mp3

What I have been trying to do with little to no success is make it so that the only thing I have to type is, "FolderTwo/FolderThree". I don't know why I'm unsuccessful in this endeavor but I am. Currently my code looks like this:

Code:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="mp3player/emff_lila_info.swf" width="200" height="55">
      <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain">
      <param name="movie" value="mp3player/emff_lila_info.swf" />
      <param name="quality" value="high">
      <param name="FlashVars" value="src=http://www.place4musicians.com/Free_Music/{SIMPLETEXT}.mp3" />
      <embed src="mp3player/emff_lila_info.swf" quality="high" name="lilaplayer" allowscriptaccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" align="middle" width="200" height="55">
    </object>
</b>
<small>MP3 by: cisco007</small>

Please notice the same line again:
Code:

<param name="FlashVars" value="src=http://www.place4musicians.com/Free_Music/{SIMPLETEXT}.mp3" />

The {SIMPLETEXT} should be for "FolderTwo/FolderThree", but it does not work. Please anyone who has a little knowledge of this help me out! Thanks in advance. I'll go ahead and let you know that I've posted this request on four different sites, and I haven't even had a single reply.

I hope someone here can help me!!

Php Embeded - Very Basic Problem

I been reading books and taking online tutorials to start mixing php in with html, one of the basic examples from the books is echoing something unto a html site, done like this:

<html>
</body>
<?
echo "<p>Processed.";
?>
</body>
</html>

The output should be the word "Processed" on the webpage but the output instead is this:
Processed.";?>
Everything after <p> is displayed. I checked the source code and this changes color:
<?
echo "<p>
While everything else remains black and is displayed.
I tried putting a </p> at the end and it reads it and sends everything after that to another line but it stills displays it.
I also tried <h1> and others, everything time i open < and close> it stops reading and just displays everything after the >
Simple ' instead of " don't change anything either.
Any help or advice is appreciated.
