Hello,

I was wondering if someone could help me.

I bought an MP3 player here and put in the top corner of the artwork (link below). When you click on the swf itself, it works but in the webpage, it does not. The person I bought it from says he cannot help.

Links (w/ xxx to prevent spam)

xxxwww.canadianguitarquartet.com/xsplash.htmxxx

Players works by itself:

xxxwww.canadianguitarquartet.com/flashaudio/index.swfxxx

Anyone know why the player works but not inside the HTML page.

Thanks,

DN

the link is like this

www.canadianguitarquartet.com/splash.htm

Did you embed the player into the html page???

This is how you embed a swf into the html..

<object height="400" width="600"> <param name="movie" value="mp3_player.swf" /> <embed src="mp3_player.swf" height="400" width="600"> </embed> </object>

Hope this helps

Cheers

Hello,

I apologize…I am an idiot.

Here is the good link:

xxxwww.canadianguitarquartet.comxxx

The player is in there but you cannot see it nor does it play in the HTML .

It plays on it’s own though.

Your SWF is inside a folder called “flashaudio”.

The player is loading on your index (html) page, but it is not able to show anything or play anything because the paths inside thee swf will not match.

You can do any of the following:

1. Place the SWF in the same folder where your HTML file is.

2. Modify all the paths inside of the flash file to include the folder name (If it loads an xml, then inside flash the path to xml should contain the folder name ) – then it will not work when you play only the swf, but in the html it will.

HTH .

Hello,

Ok, moving it to the same directory worked however there are two new problems.

I decided to create a new file to work from:

xxxhttp://www.canadianguitarquartet.com/xindex.htmxxx

1 – In Firefox: it messes up the graphics but the player fully appears 2 – In IE: the graphics are fine but the player only half appears

The date file:

xxxhttp://www.canadianguitarquartet.com/data.xmlxxx

The swf file:

xxxwww.canadianguitarquartet.com/index.swfxxx

I appreciate your help and am learning a lot.
