Topic: Adding To An HTML Page

I am trying to add a 3 picture's with  fade / wipe to the bottom dividion of my HTML page. I have tried using both codes below, but nothing is showing when I open the page using either code. Any input?

thank you

(I have of course changed the swf name and dimensions to fit)

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" WIDTH="550" HEIGHT="400" id="myMovieName"><PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="myFlashMovie.swf"><PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high><PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF><EMBED href="/support/flash/ts/documents/myFlashMovie.swf" quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="550" HEIGHT="400" NAME="myMovieName" ALIGN="" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED></OBJECT>

Other code attempted to use:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" WIDTH="550" HEIGHT="400" id="myMovieName"><PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="myFlashMovie.swf"><PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high><PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF><EMBED href="/support/flash/ts/documents/myFlashMovie.swf" quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="550" HEIGHT="400" NAME="myMovieName" ALIGN="" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED></OBJECT>

Re: Adding To An HTML Page

Hi Eric

I am new to Flash and web design all together. Unfortunately I can not add to the forum as the site is not up.

However - what I am doing is the following:

I am importing 3 images onto the Stage in Flash

I am placing them at the bottom of the stage

image2   image3   image3

I click on the 1st image - click on Insert - Click on Transform/Transition and Select Transition
(at this point I am able to select Fade or Wipe / or apply both options)

I repeat this for image 2 & 3

The effect this has is that it wipes the image from left to right - fading as the image closes

(I am attempting to actually have the 1st image wipe from left to right and fade into the next image as opposed to all 3 having the same effect at once. I know this will take some tweaking in the time line and the layers).

I hope this makes sense. Please let me know if I should clarify.

As always -

thank you
Brian

Re: Adding To An HTML Page

Have you tried publishing the html page with the swf file. You can then see if it is showing on that page and possibly use the code from it to insert the swf into your own page.
Other point to consider, is the path to your swf file correct?

Re: Adding To An HTML Page

Whatever Flash ( .swf ) file you created, it should show when path is correct. So first of all, check if the path to your swf is correct ( use at first full path to .swf in embed code to make sure).
Secondly, there a few methods to embed Flash - with their up and down sides. Read about it here and then choose one on you prefer.
As for now the most popular - SWF object method  as it allows to enter some alternative content.
