Flash in PHP?:S?

03bigMark03 · 5 Mar 2003

Hi guys, I need some help with PHP.

I have asked at several sites and have asked coding friends but I have so far not received any help. I was wondering how I could insert a flash logo into the PHP language. That would be great if you know how to do this.

PS, the content management system that is used on my site is called Post Nuke (similar to PHPNUKE). The site is also based at http://www.mark-buxton.co.uk (of course!).

just do as normal HTML or

<?php echo "<html><body><img src=flash_img.fla></body></html>"; ?>

Flash gets embedded differently, but yes that is the way to go about it.

<?php echo "<html><body>

<OBJECT classid="clsid

27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0"
ID=Untitled WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=200>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="flash.swf">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false>
<EMBED src="flash.swf" loop=false quality=high
WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=200 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>

</body></html>"; ?>

that should sort ya

Pretty useless to use PHP in this case IMO since there's nothing dynamic. This is enough:

Code:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0"
ID=Untitled WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=200>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="flash.swf">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false>
<EMBED src="flash.swf" loop=false quality=high
WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=200 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi? P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>

It don't work, Help.

The image bit is header.gif

/*****************************************************************************************/
/* Theme Header Start */
/*****************************************************************************************/

function themeheader() {
global $thename, $bgcolor1, $bgcolor2, $bgcolor3, $bgcolor4, $index;
$sitename = pnConfigGetVar('sitename');

echo"<body bgcolor=\"818181\" leftmargin=\"0\" topmargin=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\">\n"
."<div align=\"center\"><br>\n"
."<table width=\"775\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n"
."<tr>\n"
."<td><img src=\"themes/Pixame_Style/images/header.gif\" width=\"775\" height=\"34\"></td>\n"
."</tr>\n"
."</table>\n"

Sorry about the lack of information there. Now you see the code above? That's part of the theme.php file and the

."<td><img src=\"themes/Pixame_Style/images/header.gif\" width=\"775\" height=\"34\"></td>\n"

is were the image is displayed. I have tried to insert flash code in here but I got some error messages (parse errors, can't remember them). So if you guys can determin the correct code for this theme.php file for flash that would be great help.

Zedric · 9 Mar 2003

When you paste in the flash code you must escape all the quotes. This means that you must replace all the " in the flash code with \" first. Just like it's done in the original code.

Help

Cool. Sound's as though it's the right idea. I'm quit new to PHP (hence postnuke) but if you could provide and example of replacing thoughs thingies in my code that would be great.

Zedric · 12 Mar 2003

Aaww ffs. Oh, alright. Here ya go.

Code:

echo"<body bgcolor=\"818181\" leftmargin=\"0\" topmargin=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\">\n"
."<div align=\"center\"><br>\n"
."<table width=\"775\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n"
."<tr>\n"
."<td><OBJECT classid=\"clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000\"
codebase=\"http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0\"
ID=Untitled WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=200>\n"
."<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE=\"flash.swf\">\n"
."<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>\n"
."<PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false>\n"
."<EMBED src=\"flash.swf\" loop=false quality=high
WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=200 TYPE=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\"
PLUGINSPAGE=\"http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi? P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash\">\n"
."</EMBED>\n"
."</OBJECT>\n"
."</td>\n"
."</tr>\n"
."</table>\n"

No guarantees on functionality.
Make sure that

is turned into : and D first!

03bigMark03 · 14 Mar 2003

Almost Done

Ok here is the code I have so far...

."<tr>\n"
."<td><OBJECT classid=\"clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000\"
codebase=\"http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0\">\n"
."<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE=\"http://www.potton-delph.com/mark/internetstuff/themes/Pixame_Style/images/netstuff.swf\">\n"
."<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>\n"
."<PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false>\n"
."<EMBED src=\"flash.swf\" loop=false quality=high
WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=200 TYPE=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\"
PLUGINSPAGE=\"http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi? P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
\">\n"
."</EMBED>\n"
."</OBJECT>\n"
."</td>\n"
."</tr>\n"
."</table>\n"
."<table width=\"775\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n"
."<tr> \n"

It almost works but the logo does not display. What am I doing wrong?

03bigMark03 · 16 Mar 2003

Ok. I have sorted out all the code and it should work theoretically, but it doesn’t. Why not?

."<EMBED src=\"flash.swf\" loop=false quality=high

Sorted that out, now matches flash file name. But still it does not display
