Viewing Flash Media Player code
Flash Media Player code

I used a Flash Music Player on my IWeb site and am wondering where to insert the following code in EasyWeb? I uploaded the player and the music file into External Files, then inserted the code into HTML (as I used to do in IWeb). But it doesn't work. Clearly something has to be done differently...( I assume the file path should be changed to the format that EasyWeb uses. I tried that but still nothing... If someone can help it would be greatly appreciated (by someone I mean Roddy of course...:) Quote: ------------------------------- Yelena MacBook Pro OS X 10.10.3 IMac 21" OS X 10.10.3 |

Right click on your music file in the External files and select 'Copy Relative Path'. Then paste that into this line; options.mediaPath = "01 Piangete voi.mp3"; Replacing 01 Piangete voi.mp3 Did you also include the swf files in this line? swfobject.embedSWF("OriginalThinMusicPlayer.swf", "media-player", "951", "21", "9.0.0","expressInstall.swf", options, params); If so you have to do the same with these two .swf files. ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |

There's not really a lot of point in using a flash player now that more people are viewing websites on mobile devices that don't support it. Better to use the one mentioned in this topic... http://ragesw.net/easyweb-beta/viewtopic.php?f=5...t=610 ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

Aside from that I was pasting the entire code as is above into HTML widget. I see a white strip where I want the player but nothing else.... ------------------------------- Yelena MacBook Pro OS X 10.10.3 IMac 21" OS X 10.10.3 |

@Paul I was under the impression that EasyWeb couldn't read file paths in java script. Has this changed or am I deluded? ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

OK, I got it to work. The player file should not be in External Files Folder when published but in the main directory. By the way, when I placed it in the External Files in EasyWeb it doesn't get published and I have to upload it manually. That's fine but would be great to know - maybe in a later tutorial? Roddy: the player works great in Safari, Firefox and Chrome... What is the problem then? I know it doesn't work on Mobile devices but I can use HTML5 for Mobile version. Right? ------------------------------- Yelena MacBook Pro OS X 10.10.3 IMac 21" OS X 10.10.3 |

You can use the HTML5 version in mobile sites but it has some essential features missing and the idea is to create a uniform appearance in all browsers and on all devices. I'm trying to get a client project finished by tonight so I don't have time today but I will try to get things together for a tutorial and file download for mediaelement as soon as I can. ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

Roddy, thank you! But please don't rush or worry about it....For my personal needs Flash is great for now and the HTML 5 for Mobile works fine for me...But of course if we can have a more sophisticated device that works well across all devices - perfect. For now however I am totally satisfied (proud of myself for figuring things out...:)
