flash movies and swf

[gilc]

hi
i have a problem that , i put some flash screens in an html page now problem is that when i run it on my computer then it works fine but i tried to run on other computer then i have to install the whole flash to run it even though my browser does support swf , what should i do?

Theres no way round this unfortunately. To run a flash movie you have to have flash player installed. If you try and open a movie on a computer without flash player it will automatically try to download it from the macromedia website. Most people have flash installed so its not too much of a problem usually. Otherwise, try making an alternative HTML based site, and give people the option of which site to view.

Hope this helps Nick (Web Designer)

1. Supposedly 96-98% of users are flash compatible so you are dealing with a very minute problem if any.

2. If you publish with Flash Publish settings then the script will run a detection automatically and take them to the 15 sec download if they do not have the flash player installed already. Regards,

You could allways run a projector file on this other computer, or e-mail a projector file... Then it would play regardless is the Flash player is installed or not.

If any one doesn’t have plug in then automatically downloads from the macromedia site. Past this code in ur .html body tag
<EMBED src=&quot;Movie.swf&quot; quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH=550 HEIGHT=400 TYPE=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; PLUGINSPAGE=&quot;
