XML Flash Embedding Behind Other Content (Lightbox)
Jan 18, 2010
How to embed this flash so it will stay behind other content, e.g. a lightbox?
<td align="left" id="container" valign="middle" z-index="0"><!-- see notes for files included -->
<a href="[URL]">Get the Flash Player to see this rotator.</a>
<script type="text/javascript" src="my/path/to/file.js"></script>
<object><script type="text/javascript">
var s1 = new SWFObject("my/path/to/flash.swf","rotator","415","120","7");
s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","false");
s1.addVariable("file","my/path/to/file.xml");
s1.addVariable("width","415");
s1.addVariable("height","120");
s1.write("container","embed");
</script></object>

I am fine with embedding full flash but with this XML/javascript flash, I am truly lost.
I am working on a project that is using load balanced servers.. all the media that is referenced in the flash is referencing that server. but for some reason on our wireless at work we can't access that server... so I want to check to see if the swf file is existant on the server before writing out what swf to embed.. so if it is there, meaning we're not on wireless.. it will ebmed that one.. otherwise embed a different swf that will use that server's local copy of the site..
When I place the script.php in other servers it works fine (content can be viewed) except with one server, it doesn't return anything (just blank screen). What could be the possible problem, is it a hotlinking issue or something else?
So i have been working on my first implementation of a website that uses Thickbox. I've tried Greybox, Lightbox, tinybox, and subModal. All have the same effect, probably because they are all based on the same or similar javascript libraries. So here is the problem.
I have a Flash header and another Flash movie in the content area of my website that plays some FLV movies.
Here is the problem. When i click one of my links launching the window it looks fine, however, when i use the scrollbar in the window the Flash header flickers and lays over top of the window and the same goes for the Flash FLV player. Except it does something worse. When you stop scrolling, the flash flv player sits on top of the window breaking the effect. It doesn't do this in IE7 and FF on PC. Its only doing this in Safari and Firefox on MAC.
Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
I set the wmode on both flash movies to "transparent".
I have a JQuery lightbox popup but am struggling how to control the content of the lightbox. all the examples given on the internet are from anchor links that are fixed. I however, need to use it from images pulled from the database so therefore the content will be different depending on what image is clicked. I already have the content I need in a div, so is there a way of targeting that div so it is displayed within the lightbox?
This pops up a divs with a black alpha background, so that it appears the new content is displaying over the top of the current content. This all works fine, however the content I am displaying in the top level div is (or should be) dynamic.In order for the content to be useful I need to grab the id.Normally I would simply do this:
I have this code http://www.jsfiddle.net/Nntc7/ created by a pdf publisher, I need to offer non flash content to users but dont know javascript and I cant get the thing to work using swfobject, How do I edit this to allow for alternative content??
When you refresh the page in IE7 you will see what I mean - i have tried everthing including advice from http:[url]......Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
create a java script that is similar to the flash content Our Picks This Week >See New Book Releases at http:[url]..... If so, does anyone have examples that I might could use/modify? Or possibly instruct me on how to go about creating it?
I'm using Lightbox picture displayer [URL].. and a content slide show UI [URL].. on the same pagesimultaneously. Although when I connect to the javascript files in my html page one of the effects won't work. Whichever javascript file I include last doesn't seem to work.
In the scenario below my content slide show effects won't work because they are listed first. It seems that whatever is listed last overrides everything else. I've also listed the error I get when running the page.
I am interested in using a popup to show flash games in it, so I did then my interest went to make all games playable in full screen so I did that too and got success, but I am facing issues due to wmode, if you visit my this site link [URL] and click on play game for other browsers while using google chrome browser, you will see the error there will be blocks appearing in the game, while if click on play for google chrome then this error is not there, its just because of WMODE, for google chrome button I am using wmode while for all other browsers I am not doing this.
The reason for not using wmode to my other browser play button is that if I add wmode to the games then the performance of the game is highly damaged in fireforx and internet explorer, and also to some extent in other browsers including google chrome. It is that I want to get rid of this wmode=opaque thing as it makes the game slow even in google chrome which is effecting game playing quality, I used window,transparent too but nothing good came out of it. Only google chrome is asking for the wmode, while our step child internet explorer is happy with it. Some more information I would like to provide so that things work fast, I am using blogger blog, I have knowledge of html, xhtml, css and for java or jquery its hint and trial.
I have a quiz embedded on my site that originates elsewhere (QuizRevolution.com) and is embedded on my site via a link (plus some other code), part of that code being in an iframe. The quiz contains YouTube videos that, because of how the quiz is set up by QuizRevolution, will not play in browsers/devices without Flash (for example, the iPad). What I would like to do is put some script on my site that will load a SECOND quiz from QuizRevolution (this one without video) for browsers/devices without Flash. This second quiz will substitute for the first one. Does anyone know how to do this? The tricky part seems to be how I have embedded the quiz in my site, so I have included that part of the page here:
i have a site that uses a lightbox based image viewer and the jeditable plugin. basically my site has a photo gallery and below each gallery i have the option to set a caption to the photo.
i have done the caption using jeditable and i've also tried using the ajaxForm plugin for jquery to see if jeditable caused the problem. but whichever method i use, approximately 20% of the time a photo caption is submitted, if you then click on the photo to view full size using lightbox (so far i've used fancyBox, prettyPhoto and Lightbox itself, and all break in the same way) it gets stuck at "loading", whereby the overlay appears, the inital empty box and animated gif appear, but then it just spins forever and never loads the image, as if it cant access the URL. weirder still, the FIRST time i do a page refresh to try and fix the problem, it doesnt work (something in the cache i expect), but if i do a second refresh or a shift + refresh, it resets and works again. it's very difficult to eliminate all variables because the problem is so sporadic, but it seems that the most likely way of breaking lightbox is to do the following:
know why flash doesn't work on content dynamically loaded via AJAX? This is for a one-click CopyToClipboard function. I use ZeroClipboard for this. HTML CODE (this works perfect with the clipboard() function)
Code: <label>Image link: </label><input id="photo_direct_link" value="test" /> CLIPBOARD FUNCTION Code: function clipboard() { // Copy to clipboard var photo_direct_link = new ZeroClipboard.Client(); [Code]...
I currently have a slideshow working on my client's site, but I can't get lightbox to work properly on it. [URL]...
Is there a way to fix the existing slideshow to work with lightbox? Or is there another way of doing this (keeping the same look that is currently in place)?
I'm using the toggle effect to create the expandable content here. However, when I click Refresh, you see a flash of the expanded content before it quickly collapses again. Is there any way to get rid of this?
I want to implement a little JavaScript that allows the picture to be swapped for a virtual tour, a QuickTime mov file. Here is the syntax for the test.mov file that should replace the test.gif
Now you probably say .... listen dude, check out the 101 postings on swapping images..... Well, just to make it a little more complicated, I want to add the HOTSPOT functionality. When you make the QuickTime movie (virtual tour - aka 360 view), you can identify hot spots. These are basically areas that the user can click on to get the next virtual tour / movie. Now, in test.mov, there is a hotspot66, when you click on it,you are supposed to link through to NewMovie.html (which would contain NewMovie.mov), but I want the same file to remain on the screen and NewMovie.mov to be placed into the image area.
Seems that we have moved (prematurely of course) to JavaScript 102....
I am using the tinyslideshow and need to be able to embed a wmv file into it. It needs to open within the slideshow as the thumbnail loads and when clicked just as the image does. I have not been able to figure this out or know if it is possible
Doing my own fitness bootcamp site and want to fancy up my front page. My front page loads a picture and I want it to load like flash. What could I do? I have all the Adobe Software, just don't know how to use it.
I need a simple javascript that I can use in my HOME page.index.html has a flash animationnoflash.html is a page without flash animationKindle does not support Flash and therefore i want to redirect my index.html to noflash.html page.
I work for a company called Best of the Best (www.botb.com). We use Flash countdown clocks to mark the end of our competitions. The issue we now have is that our clients are using mobile platforms more and more and as bloody Apple wont support flash (not fully anyway) we need the option to detect whether our users have flash and if not then replace the current <OBJECT>Blah Blah Parameters etc</OBJECT> with <DIVCLASS="NON_FLASH_CONTAINER">All other bits in middle</DIV>Is this at all possible?
I'm trying to put some code together to create an image-swapping system, that when you click on the image it'll hide the image and replace it with a given iframe vimeo/youtube code...The swapping part works fine, however when the iframe loads up, it hides all other flash objects in the page, and I can't figure out why.Here's the JS
Code: function swapvideo(w,h,url) { document.getElementById('video_pholder').style.display='none';
