Apache and flash not loading up.

bulzbb · 03-08-2004, 08:24 PM

Hi, I know this question has been posted before. The user himself said found the question, but when asked how, he did not reply.

Ok, the problem is with flash not loading up. The page it self loaded, except for the flash. What do I need to do to make it works?

I'm using Slackware 9.1 (Using apache from the distribution).

Thanks.

There are three things that I can think of to check:

1) Be sure the following line is in your /etc/apache/mime.types file:

Code:

application/x-shockwave-flash        swf

2) Embed the *.swf file in a *.html file with the following snippet:

Code:

<embed src="name_of_flash.swf" quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF  WIDTH=320 HEIGHT=240 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"></embed>

edit the values above as necessary.

3) Be sure that you have the flash plugin installed for your browser. If the html file has the code from above, then your browser should try to download and install the plugin when you request the page. You'll probably have to be root to install it, however.

Enjoy!
