    Hello

    Looking for some advice here

    I have an old site swf object, site, that uses a navigator swf that preload's its other swf pages

    It is online here http://www.angelfire.com/film/jmg133/

    I would like to have it exist it my current wordpress site
    just hanging of one page

    I have tried to upload the a couple of the swf pages with swf wordpress plugins but the pages are coming up singularly swf objects

    Online here http://yokittyjo.com/links/jmg133-art/

    My question is rebuild these swf objects in wordpress?
    appreciated
    Jo

    If you just want to embed an swf in a wp page, I use a plugin called
    easy-iframe-loader

    It calls your .swf file, and allows that file to reference other .swf files that it needs, if that's what you mean.

    It's a shortcode that can go right in the page, mine looks like this:

    [iframe_loader width='100%' height='800' frameborder = '0' longdesc='' marginheight='0' marginwidth='' name=' ' click_words=' ' click_url=' ' scrolling='no' src='http://www.foursticks.net/Map3-30/map.swf' class=' ' ]

    You basically just define the size and point it to your .swf.
    I put my .swf folder in the folder for my domain, I reccomend you do the same.

    Thanks deepbevel
    could you explain further
    'I put my .swf folder in the folder for my domain, I reccomend you do the same."

    as within wordpress media library I can't load a folder only singular files

    this is what I current screen shot

    the shortcode works great

    I have the site running off the old angelfire webshell

    but I am stuck when running the swf from my domain

    Put the folder with your wordpress installation folder.
    It would look something like this:

    http://www.angelfire.com/your swf movie folder/your.swf

    The radio on the http://www.davehullthehullabalooer.com is great.

    Flash is still a great way to learn basic animation :)

    Thanks. And if the animation in Flash is basic, I'd hate to see advanced..(haha)
