    I’d expect you publish it to that position? Looking at the website you brought it from seems there is a support area for members try ther or read the documentation that comes with it, it says it is well documented? But as a non member I cannot see more than what is on the sales page. Their product they should advise and provide support

    no..it is not well documented..only the different modify things regarding config.xml…..

    ok..you are right.. Iยดll try first this way ๐Ÿ™‚

    thanks….

    So.. Iยดm back ๐Ÿ™‚

    Just talked with the coder but he has no experience with Joomla and which code I have to use to include Flash as a background movie behind the frontpage……

    What we can do ?!

    It’s very hard to know, Mina, without knowing how the thing works, is it a component or a module? If a module you should just fill in a url of the video to be displayed or insert the video to the module much the same as all the other video players and publish to a position.

    Let’s look at the ‘normal’ method of getting a flash based video into Joomla, using most module based display modules, you find the flash code and embed it into your article or module, looking at YouTube for a real world application you go to youtube, find your preferred video click on share button to reveal url, copy and paste this url into proper field for urls to stream the video to your site,
    the other parameters a such as video height, width generally are automatically set when video streams.

    IF You Use JCE editor it has an optional paid for Media object and Media manager that allows you to drop videos into articles etc

    while I understand you can’t give us a live example till you figure how to use it ๐Ÿ™‚ but please take a screen shot of the the module panel so we can see what you have to fill in etc that may help us solve it

    Dear Shannon…

    I will explain to you as follow :

    I got these files – please see picture one ๐Ÿ™‚

    I already copied everything via FTP to the main root directory …..

    Now..when I start my webadress in the browser I see the Flash animation inFull Screen Mode…and I think that my original frontpage is now behind the Flash animation……

    I found out that the can use Flash in background with the code “wmode” and “Transparent” or “opaque” and checked the index.html code- see below :

    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
    <head>

    <style type="text/css">
    html,body,object,embed {
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 0px;
    border: 0px;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    overflow: hidden;
    }
    </style>

    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-2" />
    <title>thesunshine</title>
    <script language="javascript">AC_FL_RunContent = 0;</script>
    <script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js" language="javascript"></script>
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="#cccccc">
    <!--url's used in the movie-->
    <!--text used in the movie-->
    <!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->
    <script language="javascript">
    if (AC_FL_RunContent == 0) {
    alert("This page requires AC_RunActiveContent.js.");
    } else {
    AC_FL_RunContent(
    'codebase', 'http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0',
    'width', '100%',
    'height', '100%',
    'src', 'preview',
    'quality', 'high',
    'pluginspage', 'http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer',
    'align', 'middle',
    'play', 'true',
    'loop', 'true',
    'scale', 'showall',
    'wmode', 'window',
    'devicefont', 'false',
    'id', 'preview',
    'bgcolor', '#cccccc',
    'name', 'preview',
    'menu', 'true',
    'allowFullScreen', 'true',
    'allowScriptAccess','sameDomain',
    'movie', 'preview',
    'flashvars', 'path=xml/config.xml',
    'salign', ''
    ); //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=9,0,0,0" width="100%" height="100%" id="preview" align="middle">
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
    <param value="transparent" name="wmode" />
    <param name="flashvars" value="path=xml/config.xml" />
    <param name="movie" value="preview.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#cccccc" /> <embed src="preview.swf" <param name="flashvars" value="path=xml/config.xml"/> quality="high" bgcolor="#cccccc" width="100%" height="100%" name="preview" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="true" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
    </object>
    </noscript>
    </body>
    </html>

    Then I already changed the wmode – window to transparent ..but it is still in front…

    So what I have to do ????

    It can be that iยดm totally wrong and there is a easy solution to cover this….?!?

    Many thanks….

    Mina

    So you are just trying to set a swf file as your background?

    It appears to be the case, I have assumed the download was a module based way to insert a swf at the debug position and related my reply along those lines

    and now ๐Ÿ™‚ !?

    If you wish your frontpage to show and not the swf you need to put the swf in a module and publish to a position, if you want the swf to show but not full page size reduce the height =100% and width=100% to allow other stuff to show

    mh.. it seems that it is really a little bit difficult… I tried to place the swf in a custom modul position same like my logo swf but you cant see the swf only a black or a blank case. I used for this only the preview.swf. Then I downloaded ” the flash modul ” but with the same result.

    I made a picture what I want to do to understand it easier because your suggestion above explain 2 different things…please see picture ( swf behind the frontpage like a background – picture )…

    Hi Minas
    I can’t really see the area you are describing well on the screenshot, if you’re web site is live on the net please give me the url and I should go there and see for myself, I am getting the impression you may be trying to insert the swf in to the ja news component rather than the normal module area?

    I’m sure with some patience and good communication I can be of help to you

    Oh Shannon you are really kindly ๐Ÿ™‚ thanks for that…

    The webadress is : http://www.thesunshine.de ( positive news magazine )

    There you can see the blue background colour. Instead of this background colour behind the template I want to place the flash file I already bought !

    thanks…

    For what you are trying you will have to apply code directly to the template and not in a module position. There is no module position for the background.

    Look in templates>la_teline_iii>layouts>default.php for the following


    <body id="bd" class="fs<?php echo $this->getParam(JA_TOOL_FONT);?> <?php echo $this->browser();?>">

    and insert your custom swf code in there. I haven’t time nor a suitable swf file to work out the code for you.
