ActiveX problem in browser???

[TheMagicMan]

I did some search on the activeX problem. A lot of the solution was showing to this site http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/flash_fix.htm (http://www.kirupa.com/forum/../developer/flash8/flash_fix.htm) .

The problem for me right now is that I'm using DreamweaverCS3 to put in my swf. I try to preview it in firefox and it works perfectly. Trying to preview in IE and it gave me the ActiveX block problem. These previews are still done in Dreamweaver itself.

Then I actually uploading my files to my webhost, and neither Firefox or IE works. It doesnt show the ActiveX problem. Just a blank, nothing.

Is there something I'm missing, publishing with other settings?

Thank you.

Do you also have Flash CS3? If you publish using Flash CS3, you already have an IE/embed-friendly version that does not prompt you for the download.

Getting back to your specific issue, are you uploading all of the files? There should be a SWF file along with a JS file that you would need to upload: http://blog.kirupa.com/?p=88 While I don't use DW CS3, I am guessing it too generates the JS file.

Yes I am using both FlashCS3 and DW CS3.

Could you tell me the exact procedures to publish it correctly?

I saw that FlashCS3 created a AC_RunActiveContent.js.
While DW created a folder Scripts with AC_ActiveX.js inside.

I tried uploading both and still having the same problem.

Please help...

Thank you.

I still haven't figured out how to go around this, but I did end up using the html made by FlashCS3. That works.
