In reply to: Flash header simple questionOh ya, and Diane, I resaved the Flash as version 6 this time, hopefully more users can view it. There’s actually no animation, I decided to use Flash for my site nav since I spent too much time figuring out how to make an html navigation and nothing worked. I learned a lot though from this experience, so I can probably go back and figure out how to integrate an html navigation now. I’ll stick to Flash and animate it when I have time. Thanks again for all the assistance!

In reply to: Flash header simple questionAwesome advice, from the both of you! skulled, your techniques worked perfectly(at least from the Mac side, I’m not sure what PC users are seeing yet). Eliminating those 2 lines made it fit great. I don’t have Opera installed though Diane, if you don’t mind, could you tell me how it looks now? In Apple’s Safari, it seems to be 1 pixel off, but Safari is still a little buggy and 1 pixel is good enough as long as Firefox and IE work alright. Thanks for all your great help and advice!

In reply to: Flash header simple questionWow! Now it works. But it’s out of place. How can I adjust it’s location? Sorry for all the questions, but your assistance is excellent and I really appreciate it.
(this will be my last request, then I can manage the rest from there) 🙂

In reply to: Flash header simple questionOne odd thing I’m noticing now, though not sure if it’s a clue to finding the answer, is in the Safari browser, when scrolling down I can see a sort of flicker of the Flash movie, as if it’s behind something. Firefox only displays a white box, same with IE.

In reply to: Flash header simple questionI tried, but nothing shows up, as you can see now:

However, if I right-click over the white box that is appearing, it says “movie not loaded,” and “about Macromedia Flash Player 8,” which means it knows that Flash is supposed to go there, but it’s no displaying the movie. Maybe I have to edit the information above it in the PHP?

In reply to: Flash header simple questionI created the Flash myself, so if I use:
<object classid=”clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000″ codebase=”http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0″ width=”760″ height=”200″ id=”top_navigation” align=”middle”>
<param name=”allowScriptAccess” value=”sameDomain” />
<param name=”movie” value=”top_navigation.swf” />
<param name=”quality” value=”high” />
<param name=”bgcolor” value=”#ffffff” />
<embed src=”top_navigation.swf” quality=”high” bgcolor=”#ffffff” width=”760″ height=”200″ name=”top_navigation” align=”middle” allowScriptAccess=”sameDomain” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” pluginspage=”http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer” />
</object>it should work? Where do I place it?

In reply to: Flash header simple questionCan you please give me an example of what the line of code would look like, and where to place it? I’m guessing it will go into the header.php file.

I really don’t know how to do this. I’m going into the PHP, and wherever it says, “kubrickheader.jpg”, I’m replacing it with my file, “top_navigation.swf” and nothing appears after saving changes. The .swf file is saved into the same location as the “kubrickheader.jpg.”
