Above is the code. I made a non working small button size flash that slowly fades and out and in type. First I couldn't figure out how to work it in table but after researching so hard I made it to work but I still dont know how...

Now! It works in Dreamweaver!(YAY!!) I can play and stop and see the movie. BUT!! when I uploaded it to the server, it doesnt work. I dont see it at all. that place is completely empty. when I click and drag the cursor there, there is no selection nothing.
I saw the source and it is clearly there but no flash.

PLEASE HELP!!! Im a newbie here...

try opening the html file locally with your browser instead of dreamweaver; it sounds like the movie was not uploaded.

provide a link to your page if that doesnt help

[jjm82]

Well, I did try to load from the file locally but that doesnt work either.

my web address is

http://www.seokjunmin.com

oh i tried it again this time and it works locally. It works if I just double click on index.html file but it doesnt work when I upload it using with dreamweaver.
I even uploaded original flash file too. It is there but I dont know why it doesnt work...

[Autoload]

Link please...

It's the way you're embedding it, FF & sometimes IE8 don't like <embed> tags. The file is there ok; http://www.seokjunmin.com/sjm.swf So let's just strip out the Dreamweaver proprietory rubbish code and get back to cross browser friendly basics.

In code view delete all that AC_FL rubbish -- everything between the <td> ... </td> tags.

Replace it with this code;

<object
        type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
        data="http://www.seokjunmin.com/sjm.swf"
        width="160"
        height="15">
    <param
        name="movie"
        value="http://www.seokjunmin.com/sjm.swf" />
</object>

thanks man it worked exactly how I wanted. Actually, I also wanted to have the background transparent and couldnt figure out for hours and found online that I had to add another

param name="wmode"
value=transparent

something like that manually because from flash, it didn't set up how I wanted to be...

Anyway, thanks croc! if you keep help me out whenever I need, I will give you a nice X-mas present!!!!!!! WOAH~ lol

thanks again I appreciate your help!

Hope to speaking to you again~



Sincerely

noob

You can add any param you need. You might be better off to use opaque.

<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />

It's faster and uses less resources to do much the same thing as transparent.
