As of this post I am trying to convert my current html website to a flash site. I use iframes in my html site and i am wondering if i can import html into a dynamic text box. I am wondering if i will need to redo the entire design in flash or if I can just import the html.

If anything is confusing, please tell.
Thanks in advance for the help

Most HTML tags wont work in a flash dynamic text box. Basic text formating and images will work. Colors, and frames will not work in dynamic text boxes. Sorry!

Also, images CANNOT be gif. I don't know why they haven't fixed this yet, but gif doesn't seem to be compatible with flash.

Tables work but pretty much all the html has to be coded perfectly. <b><i>word</b></i> will leave the bold tag on. I'd recommend just redoing the entire site in flash. Flash is really powerful, and there is no real reason for doing it in flash if you are just going to have html control the site. :\

It's up to you though. I never thought flash was too great at HTML parsing, but if you can make it work, more power to you!

Stop Your Html Codes From Being Stolen

Stop your Html codes from being stolen on your HTML pages. (16)

Hello people! Obviously a lot of people use these little scripts to stop you from right clicking on
websites/HTML pages etc. I know many many people use near enough the same kind of coding as the one

Looking for advice or a tutorial (0)

I'm working with Flash CS3, ActionScript 3, and items in an XML document. I'm looking for

center of the bar rather than the left side. I know there'll be some coordinate math to be done,
but I'm unsure where to begin. Can you suggest a site like gotoandlearn, or is there something

Flash And Transparency

Hi folks. I want to know if its possible to modify the transparency of an image in flash to give a

can do this in the GIMP but i need the background of the image/text to be transparent, and GIF is
the onyl format i can do that reliably and of course GIF is indexed and so i cant have a gradual
fade effect. Im really stuck on this one and im no Flash expert so any ideas? Ive attached a

Naming Web Page Files

Which way you like- MyPage.html or my-page.html or my_page.html (9)

Everybody talks about meta tags, keywords, good title names and how they can increase page rankings,
etc. But I was wondering whether the page name itself holds any value in indexing. Yes, I am
talking about the web page file names (some-thing.html) NOT the one which you put in title tags. I
am going to express my views and want to know what you think is correct. I have seen pages named in
various ways like these: 1) my_web_page.html 2) DoYouLikeMyPage.html 3) hey-see-my-webpage.html (I
think this way is more appropriate) 4) this.is.a.page.html (somewhat confusing) ....

Hi guys, I have a problem with one of my designs at the moment. Here's the problem: I have a
flash game in the middle of a page. However, the site navigation has dropdown menus that go on top
of the flash. Now, the navigation works if I use "wmode = transparent" or "wmode = opaque" in the
flash code. Yet, there is another problem: In Internet Explorer (I'm running version 7) the
arrow keys "up" and "down" in most flash games will not work properly. Instead, they will make the
page scroll up and down, even if the flash file has focus. This situation does not exi....

A Small Html Problem

How to display foreign characters correctly when designing a site. (5)

I was wondering how I could solve a small problem. I was told that some people see accented and
umlauted letters (such as " é " and " ë ") as question marks (" ? ") on my website. I come across
the same thing sometimes when looking at websites which use non-English characters. Funnily enough,
the other day, I looked at a site and the apostrophy ( ' ) was also shown as a question mark.
That is a very common character usually, I would think. I thought it had something to do with the
character encoding settings, and let me also mention I use Mozilla Firefox as my brows....

Import From Excel File Into Mysql Database

(14)

Has anyone tried using the excel import function that comes with phpmyadmin
http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/ - it does not require any additional plug-ins or scripts and
is fairly straightforward to use. In phpmyadmin, if you click on the database table which you wish
to import the data to , there is a link on the bottom left corner which says "insert data from a
text file into the table" - although it says text file it still can be used to import an excel file.
When you click on this link you will be taken to a page where you will be asked for the file name
