The working site is http://www.richmondbiznews.com
I pulled the Main.swf file from a Joomla powered site @ http://richmondbizsense.com
The link is embedded in the file and because I didn’t build it, I am not sure how. But I do know it works on the Joomla site.

By The Way, the o={AllowScriptAccess=\”always\”} was my feeble attempt @ fixing it and the \’s show up once I save the settings. Not sure why…
Hmm where exactly is the link that’s not working on http://www.richmondbiznews.com/? Lot of content over there oO
I don’t know why the ” are escaped in the widget settings, this did not happen to me yet. Anyways, allowscriptaccess is a parameter (p={}), not an attribute (o={}). It’s also set to “always” by default. So you can delete that line.
Oops, sorry. I meant to describe the banner. It’s the one on the right hand side for “Robins School of Business”. Same banner on both sites, but is clickable @ http://www.richmondbizsense.com
Thanks!
Are you sure you’ve copied the correct flash file? The button is a bit different (text/shadows).
Please try http://www.richmondbizsense.com/images/banners/Main.swf as URL in the widget configuration, so you’re hotlinking to the “clickable” version of the flash.
I pulled it from that folder… but I suspect there is something else happening that I am not seeing. Nice catch.
So I guess if my .swf is setup correctly, then the clickable elements will work with pb-embedFlash?
pb-embedflash only generates the (xhtml) code necessary to embed flash object – like pasting your own <object> tag into your website’s source code.
So: Yes, it should work with a proper .swf file.
Well I figured it out. I found two .swf files in the source folder… Main.swf and main.swf – I hold the original developer responsible for using bad naming conventions, but that’s neither here nor there… Used the correct file and all is well.
Thanks for the response!
