Embedding a flash player code

[camelot217]

I'm trying to embed a flash player code (see image) into a placeholder (body) but I'm not getting what I expect. I get a small image on the top right corner of the placeholder not the entire 720x480. I'm sure I'm missing something simple.


Thanks in advance

Create a 720x480 placeholder object FIRST, then paste that embed code into web properties

Thanks... FIRST is the key ;-)

Thought I had this all figured out.

I made some changes, deleted the old place holder, created a new one, pasted the new code into the new placeholder. Now I'm back to the same issue, I have this image showing a small part of the player up in the left corner of the placeholder. And the previous flash file is still playing! ( not showing but the audio is there).

I deleted the html export file and did it all over again, but I can't get rid of the old flash file. It's hiding somewhere, but where? It's like I can't overwrite the old file.

I forgot I'm streaming a video that is set to start at a certain time. This video is still running, so that part is OK.

The only issue I have is that I still can't get the player to display properly. I'm following the order of creating the place holder first then past the code, but it does not work.

Could you post your .xar file here please - folk can have a better idea of what's going on then :-)

I uploaded the page and it looks fine online. It's in preview mode it's doing this. When I start DP7 and open the page in preview the first time, it's OK. If I close the preview and open it again it's back displaying the player incorrectly.

As long as it looks right live online I'm OK.

Thanks again.
