Yola Tutorial- Embed SWF Files Ep.6
Hey guys,
just got tutorial 6 on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQCPVe...
Make sure you subscribe because I won't be posted here each episode. So this is the last post. I did post the beginning of the tutorial around 2:00 AM EST but I believe most of GS community didn't see it. So enjoy. I will try to make at least one every week.

Inappropriate?I was excited to find this - great video, simply explained. BUT!!!! I clicked on the link to get the html code to embed the swf only to find that the page had no code on it! Can you post this please? I'd love to be able to embed swf. -
Inappropriate?Hi Al Hamill,
Here's how to add a flash file to your page:
1) Upload your .swf file. You can do this by clicking on the File Manager button.
2) Drag and drop a HTML widget onto your site, where you would like to see your flash presentation, and paste the following HTML inside it:
<object width="200" height="400">
<param name="movie"value="resources/myswffile.swf">
<embed src="resources/myswffile.swf"width="200"height="400"/>
</object>
3) Then substitute "myswffile.swf" in the code above - in both places, with the name of the file you uploaded, and you should see the flash movie appear when you close the HTML editor. You'll need to play around with the width and height values in the text above, to suit your movie's needs.
4) Remember to include any folder names in the file path if your file is stored in a folder in the File Manager. For example: "resources/Flash folder/myswffile.swf" -
Inappropriate?Kershnee,
Thanks for the quick reply. I've tried this and it works - up to a point! To make the flash image big enough I had to change the size parameters (to 600 x 1200). This increased the size of the image, but it's in the middle of a very large box, most of which is white space. Can I increase the size of this box independently from the size of the image within it?
FYI here's the page url I've been testing this out on (it's password protected, but I'm guessing you yola guys can get round that?)
