inserting a flash animation?

March 9th, 2010

i bought frontpage this week and have a question. I know how to insert a picture but what about adding a small and simple flash animation. I have made a simple text fading movie that I would like to sit at the top of my homepage. Can this be done?

If you are kind enough to reply, I would need a step by step how to sort of thing as I am new to both frontpage and flash MX

Thank you

In front page.

1. Insert
2.Web Component
3. scroll down to the end of the listbox.
4. click advanced controlls
5. then in a pannel that opens up in the same window next to the list box (right). click plug-in
6. now where it says 'Data Source' insert the location(URL) of the flash sample.

hope this helps. :)

one way to reduce the size of your site (i think) is to just upload your flash movie to a free server like boomspeed.com or brinkster.com whatever, then in frontpage click the HTML tab and put this in :

< embed src=http://www.linktoyourflashmovie.com width="550" height="400"

and your done,obviously you can change the height and width to suit your needs.
just dont leave those spaces at the start and the end.

In all honesty, don't drive yourself crazy trying to insert flash into FrontPage using only the FrontPage tools. Believe me, you will drive yourself nuts, especially in FP2000.

Get yourself the handy dandy Flasher FP plugin from Jimco's Addins, for free!. Much easier to understand, and it automatically adds in the html thread and ActiveX controls you need.

There's a bunch of neat addins at Jimco too. Very, VERY helpful plugins!
