flash (macromedia):

ok first thing you did wrong was USING ALL CAPS. That is SHOUTING and nobody likes to be shouted at.
So many will simply skip over this thread.

2nd - you failed to explain what isn't working. Your site loads for me and plays fine - just very
chuggy.

If you want specific answers to your issues, then try explaining what isn't working - how are we
supposed to know?

Also - you didnt provide a descriptive subject - and people will skip over this thread for that
reason also.

Help us help you :)

well that's a lot of help - especially for anyone in the future searching for same answer - but then
again we will never know the problem anyway :p

Ok, I have loaded the ieupdate.js file into my domain, and here is what my
index3.html file looks like
www.RingOfSCars.com/index3.html

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">

another common courtesy is when you say "problem solved" or "got it figured out thanks", you tell us what you did to solve the problem.

Ok, So thanks to everyone for helping me. The way to solve the problem is to
get frustrated until you go blind, ask for help on the same topic 1 million
times, and then when someone finally responds you still dont understand what
the hell you are talking about, and then and only then, will you see the
answer to your problem before they can help you on the next step.

So, for part 2.

Is it possible to have a flash movie as a banner on myspace?

I would have to say though I tried my hardest not to ask for help through the
forum because I have seen so many people asking the same questions. I got so
confused because there were like 40 million different ways to do it. Every one
that I tried how ever did not work. What worked for me was when I inserted
these tags( I dont know how to make things bold in here so the areas I am
talking about will have *** on both sides

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<TITLE>index</TITLE>
****<script type="text/javascript" src="ieupdate.js"></script>****
</HEAD>
<BODY bgcolor="#000000">


*****<script type="text/javascript">startIeFix();</script>*****
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#ve
rsion=6,0,0,0" WIDTH="100%" HEIGHT="100%" id="index" ALIGN="">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="index.swf">
<PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false>
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=transparent>
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#000000>
<EMBED src="index.swf" loop=false quality=high wmode=transparent
bgcolor=#000000 WIDTH="100%" HEIGHT="100%" NAME="index" ALIGN=""
TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>
****<script type="text/javascript">endIeFix();</script>****
</BODY>
</HTML>

All of the groups of tags with the stars on both sides inserted exactly where
they are (match it up to your own html page) and the javascript code labeled
ieupdate.js that was made up of the code:

var bo_ns_id = 0;function startIeFix(){ if(isIE()){ document.write('<div
style="display: none;" id="bo_ns_id_' + bo_ns_id + '">'); }}function
endIeFix(){ if(isIE()){ document.write('</div>'); var theObject =
document.getElementById("bo_ns_id_" + bo_ns_id++);
if(theObject.firstChild.data){
theObject.firstChild.removeAttribute('data'); } var theParams =
theObject.getElementsByTagName("param"); var theParamsLength =
theParams.length; for (var j = 0; j < theParamsLength; j++) {
if(theParams[j].name.toLowerCase() == 'flashvars'){ var theFlashVars =
theParams[j].value; } } var theInnnerHTML = theObject.innerHTML;
var re = /<param name="FlashVars" value="">/ig; theInnnerHTML =
theInnnerHTML.replace(re, "<param name='FlashVars' value='" + theFlashVars +
"'>"); theObject.outerHTML = theInnnerHTML; }}function isIE(){ var
strBrwsr = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase(); if(strBrwsr.indexOf("msie") > -1
&& strBrwsr.indexOf("mac") < 0){ return true; }else{ return false; }}

worked for me. I am not sure how, but it did.

Hopefully this will help someone else who is frustrated. Thanks

Oh yea, I still need an answer about putting a flash banner on myspace.com

Should be possible.
I don't have mysapce but visited few friends who has it and seen many
mysapce accounts with Flash in it.
Perhaps try the support forum - if there is any, or some FAQ on mysapce.
I'm pretty sure a site as big as this, will provide users with that kind
of informations.
