Subject: Re: [SWFObject] Standard Embed to SWFObject Converter
Interesting approach. I think if you were to add the flashvars, this could
be really useful. I don't know of any tool that will handle the flash vars
for me, so that would be really nice.
For plain vanilla conversion, it is probably easier to use the html template
approach. That is, pick a swfobject template from Flash's publishing
options. Of course, you have to have one installed, but there are several
out there already written. It might be interesting to have this group check
them out and report back on the relative merits of each. Here are a couple I
have just googled up:
http://flog.fluid.com/experiments/swfobject-extension/ : this one apparently
overwrites the default template. Not sure I'm happy about that, so I haven't
tried using it. An advantage is that it ships as an mxp, so is dead easy to
install
http://ubergeek.tv/article.php?pid=111 : you have to put this into the HTML
templates folder yourself, but the path is provided.
http://www.mail-archive.com/osflash at osflash.org/msg10917.html : this one has
a dead link to the template, but some good hints on how you could add the
swfobject code to your swfobject template without breaking it.
There are also a couple at the Flash Exchange. One is a macromedia active
content thing that uses their script, not Geoff's. But this one looks
intriguing in that it apparently lets you choose to use express install
without hand editing the html.

Personally I use an html template that was given to me by a friend on another listserv. I don't know that he has it posted anywhere. It did not turn up on my google search.

I wrote a script to convert the plain-jane OBJECT/EMBED code made by Flash to SWFObject compliant code - I think it's pretty slick so I thought I would post it for you all: http://devel.teratechnologies.net/swfhelp/
Right now it is very simple, and it doesn't support Flashvars parameters, but if there is enough interest in this code, I'll keep working on it J

Subject: [SWFObject] SWFObject 1.5 prerelease
Message-ID: <26AA72B9-BB6D-4A97-8FAA-A81153BA4F8D@deconcept.com>
Hey all, i've been a little quiet lately, but want to get the 1.5
release out the door soon.
I've change the version number to 1.5 instead of 2.0 since there
aren't really that many changes to it, just some bug fixes and a
change to the express install code, but i didn't think it was enough
to warrant an entire version number increase... so those of you using
the '2.0' release, please be sure to update to the 1.5 release instead.
i've also created a compressed version of 1.5 for you all to test with.
you can get it here:
http://svn.deconcept.com/swfobject/trunk/
(you can check it out with SVN or just grab the file by right
clicking + 'save as' - sorry, no zip file yet)
let me know if you have any questions or issues with it.

Subject: [SWFObject] Extra space added in table cell
In-Reply-To: <8F494F22-5960-48A1-9B51-3AF1B926C9F0@deconcept.com>
Message-ID: <044301c71b0b$a31b8b30$210110ac@6500nx>
Hi!
I'm running a flash movie that fits exactly into a table cell.
I've just installed SWFObject to test it out, and it keeps adding 40 pixels
or so at the bottom of the cell, distorting the table.
I'm sure this is just an idiot-newcomer pilot-error thing, but if you could
point out the issue, I'd appreciate it.
http://www.conlanpress.com <== current, macromedia-style embed
http://www.conlanpress.com/index_swf2.html <== my first attempt at
SWFObject.
==============================
Secondary questions:
1) Can I place the scripts somewhere else (such as the header) as opposed to
the actual table cell?
2) Is the sequence important?
Thanks very much! SWFObject does exactly what I was hoping to do, and it's
all, well, DONE. Thank you.
-David

Subject: [SWFObject] Slow HTML page loading when SWFObject is on the page
Actually, the entire HTML page doesn't load until the flash is sorted out
when I have SWFObject active. The Flash movie just occupies one cell in a
table, so it's hard to see how a preloader is going to help.
I tried putting a background image up on the page in the html that just says
"loading" in hopes that it would render before anything else - but it
doesn't.
Somehow (compared with the Macromedia process) it's hijacking the whole page
load, not just the Flash.

a preloader in your swf is your best bet... just throw in some sort of
notice that there is content loading there.

Subject: [SWFObject] Dynamic XML via SWF using SWFObject
Message-ID: <23E848FE987CF44CB7734686781982FB038D454D@penn.hammocks.local>
The existing code works as intended. Once I use SWFObject, the .swf is
there, but is not visible, so I'm not sure if I'm coding incorrectly,
missing something, or have just reached the point of insanity. The swf
and xml reside in the same directory, the images are pulled from a
separate image server. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Existing code:
Please upgrade to the latest version of Flash Player.
Click here if you already have Flash Player installed.
If you're seeing this, you don't have Flash or Javascript enabled, or
you're running Norton Internet Security. Just give us a call at
916-xxx-xxxx!

Subject: [SWFObject] Slow HTML page loading when SWFObject is on the page
Actually, the entire HTML page doesn't load until the flash is sorted out
when I have SWFObject active. The Flash movie just occupies one cell in a
table, so it's hard to see how a preloader is going to help.
I tried putting a background image up on the page in the html that just says
"loading" in hopes that it would render before anything else - but it
doesn't.
Somehow (compared with the Macromedia process) it's hijacking the whole page
load, not just the Flash.

a preloader in your swf is your best bet... just throw in some sort of
notice that there is content loading there.

I not sure I understand you 100%, but you can use the macromedia's
javascript integration kit for flash 6/7 or the built in external interface
classes in flash 8 to do a flash to browser communication (pass arrays,
numbers, string etc)

Hi,
I have the multi-install of all IE versions from Sourceforge... Running
on XP... I am noticing swfObject not working on any version. Is this due
to the multi-install?
I am 100% positive my code is right.
Tips?
Many TIA's. :)

Subject: [SWFObject] js problem or swf issue? that is the question
Message-ID: <8D2C01AF95B4F941BD64257E71D45D8A04897B@xmailnocal2.enterprise.ad>
Thank you Geoff,
I have included that in the source but I get a blank screen with any version other than what is required. I have the expressinstall.as file on the server along with the swfobject.js file. When I try fp8 or 9 it goes to the swf and plays the movie. I can only assume the installer is getting 'hung up' somewhere. The bayrocket.swf has the required express a.s. in the first frame with nothing else.
Any ideas . Thanks,
Charlotte

you need to create an empty html element to insert the swf into -
right now the script is looking for an element with the id of
"flashcontent"
so add this somewhere above your script tag and you should be all set:
You nee to upgrade your Flash Player!
