[RESOLVED] Putting Flash On Your Page

[YoungWebDesign]

Hi,
I have a flash designer and the tutorials are good until you have finished your design and it stops there.
I just want to know how to get the saved .sfd file onto my webpage? :confused:

Thanks Gary

.sfd file? What are you using to make your flash? Sounds like swishmax. There should be an export option. The file you need should be .swf, this is the file that is viewable by browsers.

I just found an option to “Export Flash SWF File…” so when I clicked it, it saves it as a .swf but don’t you need a script to put into your page aswel?

Thanks Gary

Okay now that you have the .swf file you can use
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="yourflash.swf" width="#" height="#">
<param name="movie" value="yourflash.swf">
</object>
Change yourflash.swf to match the location of your .swf file and change the # to appropiate width and height.

This is going to sound really stupid but how do i find out the location i know how to do it when something is on the internet butnot when its local.

Well where did you save it to? You should save files relative to your html file. Just make an html file and put it in the same place as your .swf file.
