Flash Slide Show in Site Docs

Recommended Posts

This slide show I created in dreamweaver..

I'm assuming that because the slideshow works ok here http://users.tpg.com.au/clothez/ that the files are ok.

I created a folder "video" in the kita blue folder.

I've loaded the files to the skins/kitablue/video folder. I loaded the "index.html", and an images folder, containing the images used in the slideshow and the slide.swf , into the "video" folder.

So in the site doc I hit the flash button and in the URL field

SHOULD I USE

http://www.piccolinaonlinestore.com/skins/kitablue/video

or

http://www.piccolinaonlinestore.com/skins/...video/slide.swf

or http://www.piccolinaonlinestore.com/skins/...mages/slide.swf

or some other url?

The only other thing I add in the flash dialog box is the size to match the actual size I created.

In dw the image file urls are relative to document index.html

any comments would still be appreciated....as I can't get it to work

I'm not 100% on this because I have never tried putting a Flash show on a page with the RTE.

Have you tried clicking the Flash Button in the editor and in the Flash Properties dialog box, click the Upload tab, Browse to your Flash show and click the Send it to the server button. Now go back to the Info tab and click Browse Server and hopefully it should be in there.

Give it a go, it might work, nothing lost if it doesn't. I can't check it for you as I don't have a flash show available to test it.

Good luck ;)

Hey thanks for that...but believe me (and absolutely no disrespect intended) I've tried all the, what I would consider, obvious ways or methods first. Only then did I start on what, for me, are the far more advanced methods..I thnk I'll just buy a mod to do it for me..but there's no doubt someone with knowledge could do something like this easily.....there's something I'm missing and can't put my finger on it
