I recently put together a site and used the code for using the dynamicly loaded text from a text file into flash. when i preview it in flash it works and i can see the text but when i insert it into DW i can’t see the text. Anybody have information on why this won’t load…need any help, thank you.
if you mean DreamWeaver (DW) then I wouldn’t worry about not being able to see it in design mode. This feature rarely shows what the browser will.
it doesn’t show in the browser view either, i’m not sure if there is a problem with where my text file and the flash file are or what but they work when previewed, but not in DreamWeaver’s preview or previewing it after its been saved in DW through a browser.
press f12 to see it in the browser. Not sure why you cant see it in DW. Did you bring the text file with the flash into your dw structure? SOund like the path may be off.
right now i basicly have a table that has the swf file inserted…the flash, swf and text document are all in a subfolder of the initial folder holding the final index.html file. Like i said, it previews fine in a flash player but when previewed in DW (either design view or f12 for the browser view) there is no text. This text is loaded from an external text file into the flash clip and i realize that may be a waste of time but the group i’m working with is going to simply send me the info via a text file and i will just keep saving the info and it will automatically load. i don’t know, first time with this kind of method and i’m lost…the flash part was easy.
here is the tutorial on what i’m doing… http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/dynamic_scroller.htm
