Flash SWF with STS template system

[Guest]

The page I want to reference a Flash file: http://developdesign.com/shop/home.php

 

The area that displays the graphic quilt image would be replaced by a Flash slide show that uses XML to reference a group of JPG images.

 

Slide show works if referenced in sts_template" folder: http://developdesign.com/shop/includes/sts...ideshow_as2.swf

 

or within PHP and HTML files in seperate folder: http://www.developdesign.com/shop/homepage...deshow_as2.html

http://www.developdesign.com/shop/homepage/slideshow_as2.php

 

I've tried including the Flash reference code ( that is in the HTML / PHP file) in the home.php file in the languages/english folder or as an includes that references the PHP file, but nothing works.

 

Where do I put the SWF / JPG / XML set of files if I want to display them using the STS template system??

 

Help much appreciated

I have successfully implemented Flash into osC, but not with STS. I'm not sure how different it would be because I've never used STS before. However, here's a snippet of the code that I've added in with success, maybe you can use it to your advantage:

 

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,79,0" width="500" height="81">

<param name="movie" value="movie1.swf">

<param name="bgcolor" value="#ADAA76">

<param name="quality" value="high">

<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="samedomain">

<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash"

pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"

width="500" height="71" src="extrastuff/movie1.swf"

bgcolor="#ADAA76" quality="high"

swLiveConnect="true" allowScriptAccess="samedomain">

</embed>

</object>

 

One thing that I have noticed though, however, is for some reason the Flash doesn't show up right away. It seems to be trying to load it but has no success for a little while. Perhaps this may be a cache thing (it's definitely not load time... in this example, the Flash was only 18KB and I'm on a broadband connection)? Not sure. After its first successful load it never has a problem again.

 

Cheers,
