Is it possible to place a swf file as the header image. I have tried placing it in the theme header.php and it comes up with a broken image. Path is correct but it will not take it. Any one seen this before.

i think you mean header.html ?

post the link that you have in there up here.

themes/fiapple/images/flash/waves.swf

This is the link in the header.html file under the theme fiapple. I can change it to a jpg or gif but it wont take an swf file.

The swf file is a header with motion to break the monotony of the static site.

Are you using the correct <object> / <embed> tags and parmiters?

Just a thought, you've probibly been through this already.

I have found that I can edit the header.html file prety much to anything I want. I've never tried an animation, though...

No good point I will try that right now.

Thanks

JM

Here is the code of the newly added embed source form my flash header in the header.html file I have copied the top section for a look

<object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="750" height="95">
<param name="movie" value="http://jsm-inc/phpnuke/html/themes/fiapple/images/flash/waves.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<embed src="themes/fiapple/images/flash/waves.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="750" height="95"></embed>
</object>


The bold tags are for easier reading in the forum and I also have left the page up so you all can see what is happening.

THis is what I whent to instead of all the added bologna that macromedia adds for the objects and redirect and it works great!

Fixed.


<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="757575">
<tr>
<td><table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="FFFFFF">
<tr>
<embed src="themes/fiapple/images/flash/waves.swf" quality="high" width="750" height="95"></embed>
</tr>
</table></td>

</tr>
</table>

I tried to view it, and the page hangs. Your banner didn't come up at all, and it eventually timed out.

Might be congestion, but I haven't had problems anywhere else today.

I Have the banner working now, I had not changed the height and width to match the .swf file. Changed the bg to an image to match the bg

THanks for your help.

Lookin good!

All the <object> tags do it tell you you don't have flash, and where you can get it. I personaly don't use any of that, as flash is not important to my design.
