Hey guys,
Im just wondering… whats the difference in publishing your website in flash and loading it onto a server and just loading your swf onto a server?
i mean i usually load my swf to the server and everything works fine… but what does publishing it do?

Publish allows you to compress and export your FLA as <ul><li>a swf</li>
<li>a windows executable (.exe)</li>
<li>a mac binary-hex file (.hqx)</li>
<li>a quicktime movie (.mov)</li>
<li>an animated gif (.gif)</li>
<li>a png sequence (.png)</li>
<li>a jpeg sequence (.jpg)</li>
</ul>
If you check all the boxes, then Flash will create them all at once which can be a great time saver if you have to publish in multiple formats.
If you decide to publish for web and select html then Flash will generate the appropriate html tags to embed your swf correctly in an html page.
Publishing for web through Flash ensures that:<ul>
<li>you reference correctly the codebase and clsid which the viewing browser uses to determine if has appropriate and properly configured plugins or Active X to view the swf or, if not, the location of any necessary updates</li>
<li>you generate the correct object tags for the swf to display correctly in IE, AOL and RealPlayer</li>
<li>you reference the correct codebase and clsid which the viewing browser uses to determine if has appropriate and properly configured plugins or Active X to view the swf or, if not, that it can reference the appropriate url to update</li>
<li>you generate the correct embed tags for the swf to display correctly in Netscape/Opera</li>
</ul>
ahhh ok then, smiles thanks heaps jsk… Well then that explains alot…
