Edit the Flash movie in the HTML...
Purchase this template at
FrontPageTools.com.
- Open index.htm in FrontPage.
- Go to File > Preview in Browser and choose Internet Explorer,
then hit Preview. You should see the page in a browser, with the
Flash movie showing up. Go ahead and leave this browser window
open.
- Go back to FrontPage, click on the movie once, and switch
to HTML view.
- You will probably see this text selected:
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0"
WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=280>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="splash.swf?text=This
text is editable in the HTML.">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF>
<EMBED src="splash.swf?text=This%20text%20is%20editable%20in%20the%20HTML."
quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH=400 HEIGHT=280 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"></EMBED></OBJECT>
- After the "text=" in the first line (<PARAM...>), edit the
"This text is editable in the HTML" with your own tagline. Please
realize that space is limited.
+ '<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="splash.swf?text=Put
your own text here!">'
- Save your document, then switch back to your open browser
window and hit the Refresh button to see your changes take place.
In Internet Explorer, you should be able to see your tagline show
up. Make changes if necessary back in FrontPage.
- Now, you want to edit the second line (<EMBED...>). You may
copy and paste your tagline into the EMBED tag. Then, you have
to replace the spaces with "%20" in order for the movie to show
up correctly in Netscape. See the example above in Step 4.
- After saving, you may preview your web site in Netscape to
make sure that the Flash movie works.
Flash Notes...
Please note that you cannot change the font, color, font size,
or animation effects in the Flash movie without purchasing the .flas
and editing them in Flash 5+.
