Hi Everyone…
Question - Is there a way for a .swf movie to load an HTML page into itself?
Kind of like dynamic php or txt “parssing”, etc… but with HTML ???
Anyone know what I mean?
(see, i dont have the luxury of PHP … and the people updating the html site
know nothing about xml or anything above simple HTML editing with dreamweaver - not that i know the first thing about the above either… hahahaha)
yeah its quite simple to load HTML text into a field in flash… but not entire hTML pages with images and tables… plus the HTML you will be loading in in needs to be formatted in a particular way…see attached… its a pain in the arse - but if you find a better way please tell me… ( another option might be to cut your flash up and reassemble it around the html in the HTML document if you know what I mean )
thanks pixi and pete!
you know pixi, i already had attempted using your example… and it worked for my
needs for a long time, but now I have to have the user-client update their own
site and all they know is simple html, pictures and text…
so i need to have a dynamic way of allowing them to change that content inside
the flash movie… - and the catch is there’s no php allowed. otherwise i dont
think we’d be having this nice conversation
anyone else know what i’m asking? scotty ???
thanks so much you guys!
You are basically needing a Content managment system for flash… not the easiest thing to do… we created a CMS for flash for a client but it took 2 months to create ( user logins, so-edit text editor etc…
The only way I can think to make your life easier is to create an HTML site with flash elements / pieces - they can then update HTML in Dreamweaver / notepad… if you find a flash CMS please send me an email !
