Flash won't load

Recommended Posts

I have php page which i want to put a flash menu but it won't work yet in a folder on my desktop when i click the html file it worked. I upload the folder to my localhost and try it and it comes out blank! Makes no sense!

 

This is what i have in the php file:

 

   <div id="midheader">
   
<?php
include("menu/mymenu.html"); //this is valid and is working i have tested that
?>
   
   </div>

 

 

In mymenu.html i have:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0"
width="873" height="66" id="CU" align="middle">
<param name="movie" value="mymenu.swf"/>
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="scale" value="noscale" />
<param name="salign" value="lt" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"/>
<embed src="mymenu.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="873" height="66"
wmode=transparent  name="CU" scale="noscale" salign="lt" align="middle" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></object>

 

The menu folder which the flash script is in ... contains the following files:

 

mymenu.swf

mymenu.xml

roundedbutton.png

 

It just displays a thick blank <DIV> on my html page and shows no flash playing.... my page source shows this:

 

  <div id="midheader">

   
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0"
width="873" height="66" id="CU" align="middle">
<param name="movie" value="mymenu.swf"/>
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="scale" value="noscale" />
<param name="salign" value="lt" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"/>
<embed src="mymenu.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="873" height="66"
wmode=transparent  name="CU" scale="noscale" salign="lt" align="middle" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></object>

   
   </div>

 

If i right click in the div it shows the options for flash...so it is "technically" there but not showing graphically.. which is what i don't understand.... is there something im missing?

 

Hope you can help me.

havent worked with flash for some time to know whats wrong nor am i going to open flash and test but i can give you a few reall basic pointers.

 

are  u using internet explorer? try firefox

is the flash playing on load, (like, no stop();, or anything?

maybe you need nother file, the one that loads flash if u dont have it installed

...refresh the browser

start from scratch...put the swf on a html page and see if it works, if it does, go from there.

get youself another swf and use it in the php

u get the picture
