March 25, 2010 at 1:46 am in reply to: Trouble with SWF in webpage when viewed with Explorercan you use this:
https://jquery.lukelutman.com/plugins/flash/if not there should be many similar projects written in stand-alone js if you dont want to include the whole jquery base (~50k for version 1.3)
using this plugin the code would be something like :
$(‘#hello’).flash({
src: ‘hello.swf’,
width: 320,
height: 240

use firebug to fix this. in the css console you can edit the styles and firefox updates the page immediately. keep adjusting numbers in the styles till it looks right.
usually this is a problem where some css properties want to be not the exact height or width of the image, but some proportion there of. there is no way, but just looking at the css to know which numbers need to be changed to what, unless you are the one that designed it in the first place.
unless you know exactly what to change, the only option is to try alternatives until it works.
does the script work when you resize your images to be the exact same size as the originals?

Well the problem is clearly the CSS, and there is no way to know from just looking at it what the issue with the CSS is. could be a z-index problem, or maybe a piece of javascript is executing differently in IE than other browsers. Could be a million things.
Firebug is the essential CSS troubleshooting tool. It will show what CSS is affecting the part of the page that is acting funny. Firebug is a firefox plugin, and alas there is no firebug for IE. But you can use it to narrow your search.
Which things display incorrectly in IE when javascript is disabled? Are there any javascript errors in IE?
If firebug shows styles being crossed out, then those are being overridden by other styles. IE can interpret conflicting styles differently.
Have you looked at the box model issues with CSS in IE?

What exactly is your question?
Are you asking how to fix it, or how to learn how to fix it, or what tools to use?

no one would know what the errors indicated without digging through the code. at least now we have some clarification that the scripts are conflicting with each other. definitely check to ensure that you dont get those errors when the scripts are kept separate.
so… the scripts were not written to be used together. you can either re-write the scripts, find a new script that does the same thing, or embed the inner script in an iframe, like this (each line below indicating a page segment inside the page segment listed above it:
HTML
BODY
DIV = for slideshow
SCRIPT = for slideshow
DIV = for movie
iFRAME

SCRIPT for movie| Jameson Wallace

trying running firebug (a firefox extension) and see what error message you get in your console.

March 14, 2010 at 10:06 pm in reply to: Flash CS3: how to make the background react on buttons?Sounds like you are missing some general background info. Not sure if there is a tutorial that shows you how to do exactly what you are trying to do.
A small amount of education on using buttons to control timelines of movie clips should give you the toolset to accomplish your goal. You will have to abstract a bit to figure out how the .gotoAndPlay() and other basic functions add up to create the animation you want to make happen. But it sounds like you want something pretty simple.

Your question is a bit difficult to answer in the way that it is phrased. most programming languages (php, java, microsoft, python) have a way to manage large uploads. php has an initial limit, but it can be expanded. java specifically has a bunch of objects that help handle large file IO through HTTP.
But I dont think that is what you are looking for. Sounds like you just want a web front-end for standard FTP. Most studios provide this & there are lots of companies that provide versions that you can install on your website.
