Flash overlay Help with Swish? - GoFuckYourself.com

grannytgp · 05-23-2005, 10:25 AM

Hello all,

Very new to the world of Flash, and I'm using the demo of Swishmax to create a simple flash overlay. This is a going to be a really simple overlay, with just a static image and a background sound playing.

So what I did so far was created the image in Photoshop, and then started up a new .swi file. I imported the image, and also imported the sound. Then to make it a little fancier, I added a "Slide in from top" effect.

So for the most part the overlay is done, but there are a couple small things I can't figure out.

1. How do I add a "close" button to the file? I've tried adding a general button, and tried to add scripting to it with a close event -- but can't quite get it to work.

2. How can I set the properties so the SWF drops down from top and centers itself in the HTML page?

Here's a link to my Swish project file: http://images.gibbonsdealerships.com/files/fordgt.swi

Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Kevin

you can try this html after you save the file to start

[PHP]<html>
<head>
<title>fordgt.swf</title>
<style type="text/css">

</style></head>

<body>
<div align="center">
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="748" height="373">
<param name="movie" value="fordgt.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<embed src="fordgt.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="748" height="373"></embed>
