Embedding Flash CS4 swfs

[digitalj]

Anyone here embedding swf files created in Flash CS4 (and thus using ActionScript 3/Flash Player 10) in their site(s) hosted here?

I attempted to utilize a couple swfs I created, using the embedding code exactly as generated by Adobe Flash (which consists of embed code with JavaScript Flash version checking routine), and I got erratic, erratic results.

If you're implementing the swf's here on HG the same way as I just described above, is it working for you?

In my cases, I received the following undesirable behaviors:
-- Flash plugin instantiated in the browser, but movie not loaded;
-- movie loaded and plays, but explicitly declared height/width properties ignored, similarly, relative % parameters also ignored;
-- movie loaded and plays, but "loop" set to "false" ignored... movie just loops;
-- In some cases, movie doesn't appear to even load.

I *can* use the same files on another host (albeit a windows server) with successful results. (Perhaps I need to use a different approach when on Linux boxes? Or some implementation of Flash on HG servers requires something different?)

Any input/suggestions welcome.


(Do note, my time to check this thread over the next few days will be sporadic, so if you offer amazing advice and I don't thank you promptly, please know I will appreciate it when I do get a chance to read it.)

Thanks!

Just as an FYI.
If youre using the code as generated by Flash then be aware that it also comes with a .js file that you have to upload along side your swf and html files.

If you're using the default Flash publish settings, it should work just fine. I've used the standard publish settings from CS3 to CS5 on my Linux account here without any problems. You might also want to make sure you have the latest Flash Player for your browser.
