Embedding SWF in Sidebar but links will not work on swf file?!
-
Ok if this has been answered somewhere then just point me there but I couldn’t find this in the forum. Lots of flash stuff but not a case like this necessarily. Sooooo. here are the links. http://www.plantnj.com/diary The navigation bar on the right works great other then the fact that none of the buttons will really link to anywhere. It should work like the nav on http://www.plantnj.com I have this code
<object codebase=”http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0″ title=”navigation” width=”167″ height=”680″>
<param name=”movie” value=”http://www.plantnj.com/assets/navigation.swf”/>
<param name=”quality” value=”high” />
<embed src=”http://www.plantnj.com/assets/navigation.swf” quality=”high” pluginspage=”http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”167″ height=”680″ >
</embed></object>in the sidebar.php file. People have said the embed tags are not necessary but last time I checked it was necessary for Firefox. If I am wrong correct me. I am dying here. Someone let me know what comma I am missing please. PS Also I couldnt use java for some reason. Normally I would post it by putting this code…
<script type=”text/javascript”>AC_FL_RunContent( ‘codebase’,’http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0′,’width’,’167′,’height’,’680′,’src’,’../assets/navigation’,’quality’,’high’,’pluginspage’,’http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash’,’movie’,’assets/navigation’ ); //end AC code
</script><noscript><object classid=”clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000″ codebase=”http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0″ width=”167″ height=”680″>
<param name=”movie” value=”assets/navigation.swf” />
<param name=”quality” value=”high” />
<embed src=”../assets/navigation.swf” quality=”high” pluginspage=”http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”167″ height=”680″></embed>
</object>
</noscript>But I cant use that code because of java. Soooo I am wonderin if it is not working because the AC_runblah blah file isnt included?

Since your blog is self-hosted you need to inquire over at http://wordpress.ORG/support/ since that is where the self-hosted wordpress blogs are supported. This forum is for those hosted at the wordpress.COM free hosting service and stuff here works differently.

I originally posted there but still havent received any feedback after 24 hours. do you ever look at that website and if you do could you reply to my post with an answer if you have one? http://wordpress.org/support/topic/234320?replies=1 any help would be appreciated.

Since javascript and flash are not allowed here, few here know anything about them. I’ve embedded some javascript and flash a time or two on my self-hosted blog, but I have never had any problems and don’t know anything about them really. Certainly not enough to be able to debug.
