I was wondering if its still necessary to build a html site aswell as a Flash Site? Or is there a definitive and failsafe way to incorporate html into my flash site? SEO is a very important factor for me. I read this article: url...by Geoff Sterns in 2006, resulting in the following[code]

How can I build a site like this.[url]...
Each page is flash expect for the Content page.Now each page also has its own url without loading a new swf file. How is this done?Also how does the swf know what url its on to highlight the correct menu button?
I'm trying to build a personal flash site. Just wondering what is the common practice to judge what dimension the swf should be. Because right now, my swf is of a fixed size or is there ways to have a fluid dimension that goes according to the user's resolution.

View 1 RepliesI have just recently finished work on a A level project, which was to build a site for a night club. I decided to design and program it all in flash, then embedded the .swf files in html and URLRequesting them in the .swf files to link between them. But this is beside the point...
All my content is in text files and I load this into Dynamic Text Boxes and because some of the text is excessively long I decided to use a UI Scrollbar. I then encountered a most massive annoying error.
If I run the .swf on its own the scrollbar functions correctly showing the tab and also works with the scroll wheel. If I drag and drop the .swf into a browser and use it in there the scroll wheel functionality works but the tab disappears.
Lastly if I embedded the .swf file in a .html file then load the .html in a browser I get neither the scrollwheel functionality or the tab.[URL]..
A client of mine has had 2 sites (both Flash sites) attacked over the last 12 months, so he's been asking: should he go for a static HTML site or stick with a Flash site? Is there ways to make a Flash site more secure?

View 1 Repliesi'm trying to make a quick and easy personal flash website in a short period of time, and i've decided to use 'pictobrowser' [URL] software to create a slideshow gallery easily (my flash knowledge isn't great and my time is limited!). basically it pulls photo info from my flickr sets and creates a slideshow- but all it gives me is some html coding and i'm not sure how to incorporate this into the flash file so it loads every time the page loads.

View 1 RepliesI'm using a flash rotating banner in my website which takes images and descriptions from an XML file.
I do changes to my XML very often... but in my local machine, the banner takes a day or two to get updated.
Although I can clear my local machine's cache, the problem still remains for other users who visit my web page..
is there a programmatic way in flash or in html to overcome this problem ? Maybe a server configuration?
PS: below code works fine, but it clears out the cache completely... i need to clear XMl cache after a specific time period..
var timestamp:Date = new Date();
xmlData.load("/flash/images.xml?cachebuster=" + timestamp.getTime());
if there was a way to provide an option to view a flash site in html.
The site is currently built in flash, but have had feedback from people trying to view the site that they need flash player 10, is there any way to have a link option on the page that asks you to download the latest flash player, to view the site in html (html site has also been developed).
I've heard there is a package of software that allows you to create virtual URL's for a flash website.for example: mysite.com/contact -> maps to code in AS3 that chooses the contact page in the site.I think it also works 2-ways so that when the contact info is shown in the flash site, the URL in the browser's address bar also changes.
View 2 RepliesI have created a flash sit in flash pro. On one of my pages i have a bunch of thumbnails that i want to be able to scroll through and click on and have it open another browser window to an html page I have created.I have placed all the button individually in a motion clip, so I can fade them onto the page when I go to it, and I then have selected all the buttons and changed them to motion clips so I can scroll them.
I created an action file and placed it in its own layer in the first motion clip that all the buttons are on.I am getting access of undefined property errors on all the buttons when I debug.Below is what I have written, I hope someone can tell me what I am doing wrong. I am new to this.

I'm trying to enclose an html site with a flash header and footer, the only way I know to do this is with an iframe. The issue I'm experiencing is a MASSIVE amount of excess space. look at [URL] to see what I'm talking about? This mega space was there before I put the iframe in however....how do I get that bottom menu to appear without having to scroll down to see it, whether there's an iframe there or not?

I have an HTML page with buttons. Each button needs to have a getURL to open the Flash site, but then somehow, needs to also load the appropriate swf into that Flash site... My reasoning is because I have some scripts under my site that need to be in HTML (or PHP) for search engines, that way I don't have to do the whole site in HTML.. I hate having a HTML index page, but it's the only solution I could come up with. So, when a visitor selects any of the navigation buttons, I don't want them to have to select that button again, when the Flash site loads. how to do this for Flash 7 / AS 2.0? Or if there are any posts here about it?
View 2 RepliesI have a full flash site which uses swfobject to embed it 100% height and width. I'm using swffit to force a browser scroll bar for pages with a large amount of content. This is all fine and works perfectly. I also have the content in HTML format, as alternative content and this also works apart from in order to get the flash swfobject to work I need to add the overflow = hidden in the CSS, like:
html{
height: 100%;
overflow:hidden;
}
#content{
height: 100%;
i build a carousel gallery and put it into my HTML page in a hybrid site but the problem is that it starts spinning as soon as the HTML page is loaded because it works with cursor distance from the center of the stage. Is there a way of deactivating it and ONLY onRollOver is it activated and when i roll off it is deactivated again. my second problem is that I've made a flash navigation for the same HTML site. This is the code I've used for the button states:
