the best way of changing your gif logo to and swf logo if hardcoding. you must look inside of the index.php located in templates/ja-magela and found the following code line 98 and found the following code

<h1 class="logo"><a href="index.php"><?php echo $JAconfig->template; ?></a></h1>
for this code

<!--h1 class="logo"><a href="index.php"><?/*php echo $JAconfig->template; */?></a-->
<script type="text/javascript">
AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0','width','200','height','180','src','yourswf','quality','high','pluginspage','http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash','movie','headerlogo' ); //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="200" height="180">
<param name="movie" value="yourswf.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed src="yourswf.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="200" height="180"></embed>
</object></noscript>
<!--/h1-->
in this replace yourswf.swf for the name of your flash replace width and height for your flash corresponding parameters.

place the swf in the root of the joomla and place the script folder generated for flash in the same folder.

you have to add in the header the following line of code
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
adn voila your logo is a flash logo

enjoy it:D:D:D:D:D

OK, I’ve placed this in index.php

<script type=”text/javascript”>
AC_FL_RunContent( ‘codebase’,’http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0′,’width’,’200′,’height’,’180′,’src’,’yourswf’,’quality’,’high’,’pluginspage’,’http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash’,’movie’,’headerlogo’ ); //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=”145″ height=”90″>
<param name=”movie” value=”/www/templates/ja_mageia/images/logo.swf” />
<param name=”quality” value=”high” />
<embed src=”/www/templates/ja_mageia/images/logo.swf” quality=”high” pluginspage=”http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”145″ height=”90″></embed>
</object></noscript>

But I dont understand what script for flash and script folder generated for flash are you talking about? And to add this
<script src=”Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js” type=”text/javascript”></script>

to the header of what file?

Can I keep my logo.swf in images folder?

Btw your response was lightning fast 😎

when you generate the swf file the adobe flash generate a javascript that is necesary to make it work, the code must be inserted in the hed section of the index.php of template.

well in fact the swf i place in root beacuse is simplier to find for the joomla system try many formulas but this is the easier i found.

if is easy for you here is the code of the .js

//v1.7
// Flash Player Version Detection
// Detect Client Browser type

var isIE = (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE") != -1) ? true : false;

var axo;

try {
// version will be set for 7.X or greater players
axo = new ActiveXObject("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.7");
version = axo.GetVariable("$version");
} catch (e) {
}

if (!version)
{
try {
// version will be set for 6.X players only
axo = new ActiveXObject("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.6");

// installed player is some revision of 6.0
// GetVariable("$version") crashes for versions 6.0.22 through 6.0.29,
// so we have to be careful.

// default to the first public version
version = "WIN 6,0,21,0";

// throws if AllowScripAccess does not exist (introduced in 6.0r47)
axo.AllowScriptAccess = "always";

// safe to call for 6.0r47 or greater
version = axo.GetVariable("$version");

} catch (e) {
}
}

if (!version)
{
try {
// version will be set for 4.X or 5.X player

copy and paste and save it as AC_RunActiveContent.js and create a folder named Scripts

I must be missing something. First of all it doesnt resize to 145×90 as I wish, although parameters are set that way, and second it doesnt display anything. This is my pages source:

from index.php head:


<script src="/www/templates/ja_mageia/scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>


and from index.php


<script type="text/javascript">
AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0','width','145','height','90','src','yourswf','quality','high','pluginspage','http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash','movie','headerlogo' ); //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="145" height="90">
<param name="movie" value="/www/yourswf.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed src="/www/yourswf.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="145" height="90"></embed>
</object></noscript>


any idea what I might be missing?

Thanks a lot!

OK, I made it work. Solution, just insert in templates index.php following code according to your flash of course


<h1 class="logo">
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=90>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="test.swf">
<PARAM NAME=menu VALUE=false>
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=opaque>
<PARAM NAME=scale VALUE=noscale>
<EMBED src=test.swf menu=false quality=high wmode=opaque
scale=noscale WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=90 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
</h1>


No need for external scripts and stuff.

Thankx all!
