RE: [Zope] how to include Flash/SWF objects in Zope website?
Hi Fred, We use Flash in most of the sites we develop with Zope. We just upload the swf file into a File object and call it from the index_html method as follows: splashpage http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0" ID=splashpage WIDTH=550 HEIGHT=400> http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"> The File object is named splaspage.swf, but the extension is not necessary. It could have been called splashpage or anything else. Hope this helps.

Thank you both for the help. File objects are just the ticket (but it turns out that Image objects work nearly as well). For the record, here's what I did: + create File object with id "foo_swf". + upload my local foo.swf file into foo_swf. + create DTML Method object "foo_flash" to provide all the HTML OBJECT and EMBED elements needed to wrap the flash object, referring to that flash object as '' and 'src="foo_swf"', respectively. + use '' to display the flash object in a DTML Document.

I once hacked together a simple 'Flash' object in a Python based Product. It was just a class derived from the File object, which behaved very much like the Image object. If called by DTML, it would return the appropriate HTML to include the Flash animation in the page, whcih could be customized with a special method very much like the '.image()' method on Image objects. Alas, the class was written for a previous employer, and never released as Open Source. But it was dead easy to create. -- Martijn Pieters | Software Engineer mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com/ | Creators of Zope http://www.zope.org/ - ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
Re: [Zope] how to include Flash/SWF objects in Zope website?
N.B. You probably should add your Flash/SWF objects as "File" objects. DTML Method/Document objects can do amusing things with binary data, which is why there are "File" objects. -- Jim Washington J.

Re: [Zope] how to include Flash/SWF objects in Zope website?
You could just upload them into Zope and point to them. http://www.gotschool.com (see flash demos). It uploads as a "application/octet-stream" I am sure you are talking about much more interaction.

[Zope] how to include Flash/SWF objects in Zope website?
I want to include some Flash/SWF objects in a Zope website, but I don't see any built-in way to do this or any Product that would help. Any suggestions?
