Does anyone know anything about using SWFOBJECT with Flash files in Pagebuilder

Drew

I have a SWF file that for the sake of variable changes I need to use the SWFOJECT file. Has anyone had any luck using this method of Flash implementation in Pagebuilder? The file is a small flash video player with text playlist beneath it. Any suggestions?

Just to be certain, I presume you mean this:

I just tried a test and it seems to work ok:

http://action.sierraclub.org/site/PageNavigator/adriantest_delete

You may however, want to put the SCRIPT call in the pagewrapper. And put

swfobject.registerObject("myId", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf"); in window.onload, or body onload call

otherwise, there is the potential that swfobject could get called before the javascript object exists on the page.

Some things that might cause it not to work:

• js file not being loaded (wrong URL or something)

• path to swf files incorrect.

Firefox+the Firebug plugin is a good way to troubleshoot Javascript issues.

Adrian, I don 't see any flash on your test. Just your page wrapper and "asd asd".
