problems with flash videos

I use the AC_RunActiveContent.js on all my Flash movies. The only problem I have had with it is if the path to the .js file was incorrect or that I forget to upload it? Silly things happen sometimes...

You can generate all the code from Flash including the .js file, the player skin, the html file, the swf.

AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0','width','482','height','314','src','test_movie.swf','quality','high','pluginspage','http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie','test_movie.swf' ); //end AC code

OK my code looks like this using CS3:

 

 

 

if (AC_FL_RunContent == 0) {

alert("This page requires AC_RunActiveContent.js.");

} else {

AC_FL_RunContent(

'codebase', 'http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0',

'width', '480',

'height', '440',

'src', 'caldera',

'quality', 'high',

'pluginspage', 'http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer',

'align', 'middle',

'play', 'true',

'loop', 'true',

'scale', 'showall',

'wmode', 'window',

'devicefont', 'false',

'id', 'caldera',

'bgcolor', '#ffffff',

'name', 'caldera',

'menu', 'true',

'allowFullScreen', 'false',

'allowScriptAccess','sameDomain',

'movie', 'caldera',

'salign', ''

); //end AC code

}

ok... thanks - i copied and pasted that exact code, replaced the 'caldera' with my movie (& added html, body & head tags), and it finally works in firefox HOWEVER, i still get the activeX / script warning in IE8. have you actually tried that script in IE8....?

nevermind.. this has been fixed. it appears that when the page is live it works in IE8, but not locally. *&%^ i wasted a lot of time on that lol.
