Thanks for your dev efforts. As a big programming expert, could you please tell whether it's possible to use Flash animations as fixed background, as though it were an (animated) image with html page text contents scrolling over it? Just to further illustrate what I mean, see the example bellow for static images:
<style type="text/css">
body { background: url(MYFLASHANIME.SWF) center no-repeat;}
</style>
Of course, this does not work... But is it possible to do something like this using flash animations, with proper, relevant HTML coding you may know about?
Regards. |

I searched on the internet and it doesn't seem to be possible; you can use a standard flash object, put it below every object of your page (in CSS use the "zindex" property) and set this flash to be transparent.
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"> |

| It uses the same technique that I explained you; I'll check in order to make a new extension. |

Ooopppsss! It does WORK, all right, but NOT WITH IEXPLORER. IT does work PERFECTLY with Opera and Firefox, however. Dunno about Chrome, cause I hate it (no status bar - how can this be called a browser?). And by NOT working ( with IExplorer - "Note for it to work in IE you will need to change the Master Page Preamble to the Loose DTD <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> " - as proposed by WebPlus user forum nfc212 over at http://forums.serif.com/showthread.php?p=637446#post637446 ), I mean: the Flash animation shows without a problem, but the text (component) does not scroll over the animation - it goes scrolling up WITH it instead. However, it does NOT, of course, if you change the master page preamble as indicated above.
ANYWAY, thanks again so much. I am so HAPPY with this! ;)
See experimental, unfinished example here: http://mchal.heliohost.org/indexxx.htm (not adapted to show correctly with IE yet - will change it soon) |

Ok, Davide. Thanks!
Hey, couldn't you go a bit further about this? I mean: how about making it possible to use .FLV files STREAMED/SERVED directly from youtube.com as fixed HTML page background animations? Sorry if this is asking too much.
Regards. |

@HEXAMACHO,
probably using the same techique it would be possible;
embed a youtube player into your page; edit the HTML code and set the "z-index:0; width:100%; height:100%;" to the container div element; this should work; let me know. |

It doesn't seem to work or maybe I am missing something. Also, please, consider that I mean setting it not only as FIXED animated background, but also with automatic playback and hidden controls. Is this really possible? Couldn't you please create kind of an example template/.dhe file and make it available for download when you find some time to spare for this?
Again, thank you very much for your support.
Regards. |
