Hello, I am a new EverWeb user, and so far I am very happy with the program! I have created a page with an HTML snippet, which includes the embedding of a Flash movie (called "main_jc.swf"). I've added the .swf file to my assets (under "external files"). However, when I publish to a local folder my Flash movie doesn't load. I only see a white box. When I look at the local folder, I don't see the "main_jc.swf" file. Perhaps my HTML coding is wrong, but I assumed the file would be with my other external files. Please help! Here is the HTML code in the snippet: <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase=" http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="770" height="654" align="middle"> <param name="movie" value="/main_jc.swf"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"> <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" width="770" height="654" align="middle" src="/main_jc.swf" allowScriptAccess="always"></embed></object> Last edit 12 years ago |

The code I entered above was read as code, and not text! I hope putting it in quotes helps: "<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase=" http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="770" height="654" align="middle"> <param name="movie" value="/main_jc.swf"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"> <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" width="770" height="654" align="middle" src="/main_jc.swf" allowScriptAccess="always"></embed></object>" |

You need to replace the back/forward arrows with the appropriate HTML entity for the code to appear. You can also use this website to convert it. Otherwise you can contact me here… http://everwebcodebox.com/info/everweb-info.html Last edit 12 years ago ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

| Thank you, Roddy. When I published to the server my Flash movie played perfectly. It didn't show up when published to my local folder on my computer. Problem solved! | |

Flash is not used much nowadays since it doesn't work on iPhone/iPad and a large percentage of viewers are likely to view your site on the latter. The playback method of choice is to use HTML5 with flash fallback for out of date browsers. A flash file or a flash player will not play locally due to the security settings on your Mac.
