Hi All,

I've been banging my head against the wall trying to get a Flash Music Player embeded in my website. It works fine for me from my local folder, but not from the website server. Since this all client side, I suspect it may be in my browser.

Would you do me a big favor and try this link?

http://about-him.com/play/sampleembedcode.html

Thanks Much,

Don S.

After it doesn't load in your browser, hit View - Source and take a look at the Source Code for the blank page.

Should there be spaces between the equal sign after the variable? dunno, but...

rharv should be able to help out with the definitive here.

I looked at it in my html editor and I get only this text, "This Text will be replaced by the Flash music player. Maybe a problem with the Flash player.

This Javascript looks funny to me, like it is generic. -swfobject.js

What are you using to make the swf file?
If Flash, it should have generated an html file and a JS file.
Try using the html and javascript file the program generated.
Just load those three files into the folder on the server and see if it plays.
Then we can see what we can strip from that html to embed it into another page.

Is your movie named 'my movie' ? It looks like the player is looking for that.
This is not a regular Flash setup, as far as I can tell.
I see div id="flashplayer" but I don't see anywhere that id could be getting defined...

If you want to PM me I'll see if I can help.
I've been doing a bit of Flash work on the side lately.
Here's an example-

I just noticed that I can bring up the player directly from Here. I just can't get it embeded in another page. It has a couple gospel songs that might be of interest to some.

Hey Don,

Same response here. The first link had a blank page, the "HERE" link pulled it up.

Don,
Here are a few guesses.

I notice your html code is calling for "playerMultipleList.swf" and you have that object uploaded as "playermultiplelist.swf ". Also the "playlistPath" may need to be changed to "http://about-him.com/play/".

Toucher, thanks for checking.

JBlatz, Thanks for looking. I had to go to lower case because my Unix server requires it. I'll check on the playlist path, but I don't think it will matter as long as all the files are in the same directory.

You can change the html code in your "sampleembedcode.html" document to "playermultiplelist.swf" so the two match.

Same here, but it looks like you are in already good hands.

Good Luck,

I got the player to show up by changing

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>

to

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://about-him.com/play/swfobject.js"></script>

However, your playlist is still empty.

For what its worth, the entire contents of the code I'm using is below.

<!-- Begin Copy/Paste -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://about-him.com/play/swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="flashPlayer">
This text will be replaced by the flash music player.
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("http://about-him.com/play/playermultiplelist.swf", "mymovie", "295", "200", "7", "#FFFFFF");
so.addVariable("autoPlay","no")
so.addVariable("http://about-him.com/play/","playlist.xml")
so.write("flashPlayer");
</script>
<!-- End Copy/Paste -->

The player is in the lower right corner where he wanted it (I think)

Finish up the song list Don!
