Flash :: HTML With Image And Flash

Using Flash In HTML, Alt-image?
Currently, I'm using flash for a navigation bar on a otherwise HTML only page. The owner doesn't wish the entire site to be in Flash and also wants non-flash compatability. Is there a way using dreamweaver, frontpage, or some HTML code that would allow me to display an image or possibly even an image-mapped graphic if the user doesn't have flash installed.

I suppose there would be a way to change the content if I ran a javascript to check for the exsistance of the plugin but I havn't explored Javascript plug-in checks for a long time.

HTML With Image And Flash
Hi, I have a Flash file with the following code in it:

Code:
// Create a new style sheet object and set styles for it.
var styles:TextField.StyleSheet = new TextField.StyleSheet ();
styles.setStyle ("html",{fontFamily:'Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif', fontSize:'12px', color:'#0000FF'});
styles.setStyle ("body",{color:'#00CCFF'});
styles.setStyle ("h1",{fontFamily:'Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif', fontSize:'24px', color:'#006600'});
styles.setStyle ("p",{color:'#000000', fontSize:'14px'});
styles.setStyle ("a",{color:'#0000FF', fontSize:'14px', fontWeight:'bold', textDecoration:'underline'});
//
/* Assign the style sheet object to myTextArea component. Set html property to true, set styleSheet property to the style sheet object. */
myTextArea.styleSheet = styles;
myTextArea.html = true;
myTextArea.focusTextField = null;
//

var myVars:LoadVars = new LoadVars ();
// Define onData handler and load text to be displayed.
myVars.onData = function (myStr:String):Void {
if (myStr != undefined) {
myTextArea.text = myStr;
} else {
trace ("Unable to load text file.");
}
};
//
myVars.load ("references.htm");
//
THEN, I have the file references.htm to be loaded:

Code:
<p>Text text text. <br/>[<img src='images/imagepopup.gif' width='15' height='15' vspace='0' hspace='0'/><a href="http://www.cnn.com" target="_blank">Link to CNN</a>]</p>
The problem is that the image that is in the HTML code does not appear in the same line with the text (inside the []). Instead, it appears in a line below.

It looks like this:
Text text text.
[Link]
Image

But it should look like this:
Text text text.
[Image Link]

Is there anything wrong with the code? Please advice.
Thanks,

Background Image In Flash Or HTML
Hi there!

I've got a Flash movie with a photo background for added effect, the problem is, this is bumping my movie up to 118 K, its 72K without the background.

I've tried putting the background in HTML, but it won't scale to fit the screen. I've also tried using layers with a 100% sized image, but this screws up if the browser is resized.

Should I put my background in Flash or HTML? Which will be faster at downloading?

Pass Image Name And Path To Flash From Html
Hello Flash Forum,
I would like to use Flash to display a larger image in an HTML page that opens on top of a window with
thumbnail images. The thumbnail page will be a php page. If the user clicks the thumbnail, I would like to open a swf that diplays the larger image. I would like to pass the path and name of the image to display to my swf. It would open a browser page (or just a swf file) over the thumbnail page. The use could then close the larger image display, and click another thumbnail, etc.

How could I do this? I have a swf file that will display the image, but I would like to pass the image name from outside the swf file.
Thanks for any tips,

Changing An HTML Background Image From Flash
Hi all,

I am building a site right now that gives the users the option to change the color scheme of the site.

The problem I am running into is my footer an image outside of flash as the background colour of a table.

Is there a way that I can create some sort of function in flash that speaks with the html of the page to change that table cell's background image? I assume it would be javascript if it's possible.

Border Around Flash Image In Html Table, Shouldn't Be There
On this page:

http://www.techartisans.net/speedMin...php?flash=true

you will find a table which includes one flash image. For some reason the flash image appears a pixel or two smaller than the table cell it is in, and so there is a dark blue border around it (it was a white border until I set the background color of the flash to dark blue). The cell is 326 pixels in height, and colspan=2 so it never actually says it is 360 wide, but it is. The flash image is also 360w x 326h.

I played around with adjusting the size of the flash but it didn't change much, just made the border slightly skinnier or fatter. I also took a good look at the widths and heights of the table cells, and they are all correct.

One strange thing was when I took out the spacer row that Flash creates when it publishes the html. The whole thing went out of wack, nothing matched up, even tho the widths and heights are correct. It's all just weird.

Any ideas why this might be happening, and how to fix it?

Thanks, Emily

Image Maps And Embedding HTML Onto Flash Movie
I know how tto embed a Flash movie into an HTML page. How do i embed an HTML page into a Flash move?

I created an image map in HTML because i didnt know how to do it in Flash5.
The rest of the movie is done in Flash, including the navigation bar. The Flash-implemented navigation bar on the top of the page remains static. When a link is clicked, various movie clips are loaded in the bottom 3/4 (main body) of the page . Is there a way to load the HTML page (with image map) into the main body of my page when the relavant link is clicked? Or is there an alternate way of doing this (say, like converting the image map into a Flash movie clip?)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Image Leakage In Html Of Flash Import In Dreamweaver
When i import the .swf file into Dreamweaver as a specific sized image it is fine, but when I wish to have the image box size as 100% or 95% in the html code so it fills the screen and resizes in the browser the flash movie leaks out of the image box and into the html page which then shows bits of the movie out of the designed area, how can i stop this?

[F8] Passing PHP To Flash- Trying To Display Image With HTML, Not Working?
My Flash is correctly passing PHP variables to my SWF, but I'm passing a variable with HTML in it, and instead of loading the image, it loads the text, literally.

Here's my PHP file-

<?php
print "myVar=<img src=http://www.tiffanydavisphotography.com/online01.jpg>";

Html Background Image Covered By Flash Stage
http://rufushale.com/test.html for example.

I am using Flash Pro 8 and DW 8 on ibook g4.

The problem is that i cannot seem to prevent the Flash "stage" from taking up most of the screen, covering the bg image, which is the green stripes. It does not matter how small I make the stage in Flash.

Here is the page code:

<title>test</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all) x=d.all[n]; for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++) x=d.forms[i][n];
for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++) x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document);

Making An Image Popup In A HTML Window From Flash
Hi all, I was wondering, how do you make an image pop up in a window javascript style, from flash?

i have a variable in flash, equal to something like "images/image.jpg", and I want to make a button so when you click it it opens up a popup window thats a certain size, without menubars/scrollbars etc, to display that image, like a javascript on your standard HTML.

I read that flash has a javascript API, so there must be a way to do it huh? Is it getURL stuff, maybe with a POST of my variable?

Upload Image To Flash Movie From Html Form
Any ideas (or links to threads/tutorials) on how to have a running flash movie provide an option to upload an image. I would like to use a pop up window with a html form with upload file field, upon submitting, the window closes and the image is uploaded into the flash movie.

My initial thought is to uses a loadvar.load directed at the html form URL and have the form pass the path to the recently uploaded image, which will need to be be uploaded to a temp directory on the server. Then the image is loaded to an empty movieclip.

Does that sound like the way to go or does someone have a better idea?
Thanks

Tell Html To Load Image...
I have been struggling with one page of my web site where I want people (skaters actually, full body images) to just simply fit into the space I want it in...

http://members.lycos.co.uk/niietzshe/pics.html

The problem is I have to fit at least four more on and the only way I can do that is to scroll them, If you go to the link above and go over one of the guys there, you will see that another image on the site changes to a picture of them and their name.

Now to have them scrolling how I want, I'm going to use that scrolling menu thing with accelorator, (where you move your mouse and the menu moves acordingly to it!!!) So it's going to have to be in flash...

This is where I need the help:::
I still want to keep the rest of the page in html and keep that rollover of another image....

Can I get flash to tell the html file to change that image when i go over one of the skaters in the flash movie???

Probably will need a java code....
I hope someone knows what I mean...

Anyway, If anyone does, please could they reply and help me out???

Thanks

I'm working on a project and need to create several thumbnails that will just be jpgs in html and when you click on them they will load a certain swf file replacing a main swf file or even loading a swf file into it like a shell swf.

I tried working on doing something like an onclick image swap but with swfs. Can't figure it out.

Image In An Html Textfield
hi,
i'm using the img tag to display an image in a html texfield with some text but the text doesn't flows around the image correctly unless i make it selectable and click on it which of course is not a solution...
does anyone know how to make the text appear correctly ?

here's my code in case you need it:
/// Flash on frame 1///

var imgXML:XML = new XML();
imgXML.ignoreWhite = true;

imgXML.onLoad = function(success){
if(success){
var root = this.firstChild;
_root.txt = root.firstChild.nodeValue;
T1.htmlText = txt;
}
}

///

I've put a dynamic textField named T1 on the first frame

imgXML.load("img.xml");

/// XML ///

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<n>
<![CDATA[<img src="img.jpg"width="285"><br>Txt de description de l'image]]>

HTML Link From Image
I'm kind of new at posts, but hopefully someone can help me out on this. My situation is as follows: I have a flash file set up as a banner for a web site. The banner consists of 3 images across that appear and cross-fade independently into another set of 3 images (for a total of 6 images). I have the movie set up so that the first 3 images appear, cross-fade into the next set if 3 images in a staggered fashion, then loop back to the first set again. Each image is linked to a specific web URL. The first set of images appears, and are clickable. Fine. They dissolve into the 2nd set of images, and are clickable to the new set of URLs. Fine. But when the 2nd set of images loops back to the first set, the first set are no longer clickable to their original URLs. It is almost as if the 2nd set of images is overriding the URL links of the first set. Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Html Image Question
When doing htmlText and using the <img> command, is there a way to make it so a scrollbar will pickup the image at the bottom of several paragraphs of text. My problem right now is that the words wrap around the image. I want to be able to html code it like regular, normal. here is the html code that I want to use:

<p>This is a paragraph introducing the image </p>
<p align = "center"> <img src = "images/imagename.jpg"> </p>
<p>wasn't that image great, all centered and by itself on one line? </p>

how would i do this in the actionscript of the htmlText command for my textbox?

Thanks for the help

Image In Html Textbox
Ok so I have successfully put an image in a text box using the <img> tag. I inlcuded a <br /> after it so that the text that follows will start on the next line. This does not happen correctly. There is text to the right of the image and I don't want that. I want it to start on its own line. One possibility is to keep adding breaks, but this messes up my text box further down.

Here is the actionscript that is going into my text box:

Code:
imageOrText = "<p><img alt="Fixed Ops Magazine" src ="magLogos/fixedopsLogo.gif" /><p><br />";

articles_mc.articles.htmlText = articles_mc.articles.htmlText + "<b><a href="" + parseURL + "" target = "Articles">" + parseHeading + "</a></b><br />";
articles_mc.articles.htmlText = articles_mc.articles.htmlText + imageOrText + "<br />" + parseDate + "<br /><i>" + parseExerpt + "</i><br /><br />";
This may be an html issue.... hmm....
any help would be much appreciated
THANKS!!!!
