    Hi im having some problems using a .swf file that requires a .xml file list, i can get it to appear in site preview but when uploading it says move not loaded and cant see anything, i have looked through the forums and cant seem to come up with an answer.
    any ideas would be good.
    thanks

    <embed src="flashmo_237_touch_slider.swf" width="567" height="315">
    </embed>

    Is the swf file uploaded to the server? If not add it to the additional files list.

            Try this 'old fashioned' method:

            Code:

              For any method to work you must be able to 'see' the swf file on the server in your browser.
              The file should be uploaded to:
              http://www.premier-solutions.uk.com/...uch_slider.swf

              and that seems a bit strange in the browser. Is the flash file ok, does it work on your desktop?

                Hi, have just tried that code, am now getting the flash up but seems to be without the xml input ( i adjusted the high and width of the code provided hope this didn't mess with the out put )
                ???

                yes i have had the flash file work on my desktop and all was okay with the file,
                i thought that this could have been the problem and have created multiple file with different export setting from adobe flash.

                  Where is the xml file located, is it also uploaded to the same place/folder?

                    You will need to replicate the same code for all the flash elements on the page.

                      have just updated the flash code for other elements also yes i have just attempted to add the SWF and XML file though the additional files section in the actinic software so should all be in same place.

                        I guessing this is from Flashmo - have you followed the installation instructions on the their website?

                            You shouldn't be adding the below into a fragment:

                            Code:
                            <head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>flashmo_237_touch_slider</title>
<script language="javascript">AC_FL_RunContent = 0;</script>
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js" language="javascript"></script>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#000000">
                            The 2 scripts should be in the head area of your template, the rest should be deleted as the actinic template includes those for you already.
