Just checked again and actually not even all the default parameters that
gets created by the Publish command are recognized by the dcr.
In the HTML document that gets created by Director /where i use the "Object
and Embed" setting) this is what i get:
****************************************************************************
**
<object classid="clsid:166B1BCA-3F9C-11CF-8075-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/director/sw.cab#
version=8,5,0,0"
ID=external width=320 height=240>
<param name=src value="external.dcr">
<param name=swRemote value="swSaveEnabled='true' swVolume='true'
swRestart='true' swPausePlay='true' swFastForward='true'
swContextMenu='true' ">
<param name=swStretchStyle value="none">
<PARAM NAME=bgColor VALUE=#000000>
<embed src="external.dcr" bgColor=#000000 width=320 height=240
swRemote="swSaveEnabled='true' swVolume='true' swRestart='true'
swPausePlay='true' swFastForward='true' swContextMenu='true' "
swStretchStyle=none
type="application/x-director"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/";></embed>
</object>
***********************************************************************
As You can see there is a parameter called swStretchStyle, that has the
value *none*
This parameter is not reported to the dcr. I can identify three parameters:
SRC, BGCOLOR and swRemote, as well as their values.
But not swStretchStyle or any parameter i create myself.
What�s happening?
