flash cd site

[law78]

Hi people,

I have created a cd version of a website for a client but would like to know what happens if you have flash elements on the site, I assume it would be work ok if you have the flash plugin but what if a user has not, I assume that they would not get the usual diolog box alerting the user that they do not have flash (since this is generated online),

Any ideas....

put the player on the cd as a resource

Usually a Flash movie on a CD, is a projector file (.exe - .hqx), which holds it's own player, so there's no need for another player...

I didn't create it as a projector file because the site had html elements,

Then if you're "playing" the site through an .html, it should hold the "player detection" info, and assuming a online connection existed, when the site was "played", it should work as if it was online.

Thanks I have sent the file off to the client, can anyone point me to any online tutorials for devleloping CD content within flash.

Also, if I create CD content in flash, am I able to add an icon to the to the CD, autorun etc, any tutorials on this would be great.

I had to buy software a couple of months ago that enabled me to create an autorunning CD that opens a HTML page, I am pretty dissapointed with the results and would prefer to use flash in conjunction with others methods.

Thanks

These 3 links should help, for projector files at least...

As for changing the icon, think that can only be done through 3rd party software...
