Thanks jimbo - I wasn't aware of this. Is this something that has recently happened?
I will be sure to look into Geoffs SWFObject Many thanks Paul -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jim Berkey Sent: 31 January 2007 13:25 To: flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Very large html document created by Flash 8 Publish All of the text and links used in a swf are by default published as comments in an html page outputted by the Flash IDE. The reason is to show that data to Google and other search engines. All of those comments may be deleted without any adverse effects to the swf or viewed page. And Google now claims that it can 'read/index' the text inside swf's anyway. Also, many of us use Geoff's SWFObject js. to not only embed the swf more invisibly cross-browser, avoid the 'click to activate' in IE, and it gives the opportunity to place whatever alternative content you wish in a div that is much more search engine friendly and offers graceful degrading. http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/ hth, jimbo *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 1/31/2007 at 10:28 AM Paul Steven wrote: >Anyone experienced this problem. > >When I publish my flash movie, it creates an html page that is over 3mb... > >It appears to have lots of font information in it > >Here is a snippit > ><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; xml:lang="en" lang="en"> ><head> ><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> ><title>HighER</title> ></head> ><body bgcolor="#ffffff"> ><!--url's used in the movie--> ><!--text used in the movie--> ><!-- ><p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="12" color="#ffffff" >letterSpacing="1.000000" kerning="1"><b>next </b></font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Webdings" size="32" color="#ffffff" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1">4</font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="12" color="#ffffff" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1"><b>previous </b></font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Webdings" size="32" color="#ffffff" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1">3</font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="12" color="#ffffff" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1">Getting started</font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="12" color="#636363" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1">Establish a baseline</font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="12" color="#636363" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1">Learning the rules</font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="12" color="#636363" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1">Training eyes & mind</font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="12" color="#636363" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1">Become an efficient reader</font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="12" color="#636363" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1">Pulling it together</font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="12" color="#636363" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1">Looking ahead</font></p> ><p align="left"><font face="Verdana" size="12" color="#959595" >letterSpacing="0.000000" kerning="1">| Setting some objectives > >_______________________________________________ >Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com >To change your subscription options or search the archive: >http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders > >Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software >Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training >http://www.figleaf.com >http://training.figleaf.com _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
