Are you embedding the flash into a web page, or just accessing them directly?
Embedding into a page isn't terribly hard, but if you don't get it quite right it wont work. Here's an example.
Your file for sake of argument is "myFlashMovie.swf". Edit your page's HTML and include this where you want the flash file to appear:
- Code: Select all
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"
WIDTH="550" HEIGHT="400" id="myMovieName">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="myFlashMovie.swf">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF>
<EMBED src="myFlashMovie.swf" quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="550" HEIGHT="400"
NAME="myMovieName" ALIGN="" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
If the file is in a subfolder somewhere you can specify that with the file name. Note that you're essentially defining the flash movie twice, that's because Internet Explorer is looking for the Object tag, while FireFox works off of Object.. this'll cover all the bases. You'll need to edit height, width, background color etc etc but you get the idea.
It
should show it correctly. (Assuming you have a flash plugin working right)
