Flash/Rotating image header

[outeredge2]

2 part question:

1st. Is there a way to ad a flash file to the website?

2nd. What is the best way to create and upload a rotating image on a page which rotates every 10 secs or so?

1st. Is there a way to ad a flash file to the website?

Sure, you can add it as a banner, into tpl_header, footer, blank sideboxes by Kuroi, tpl_main_page...etc Zen Cart lets you put it anywhere you desire. Just add in the flash codes into anywhere which also points to the right location of the swf file.

2nd. What is the best way to create and upload a rotating image on a page which rotates every 10 secs or so?

You can use Adobe Flash, Swishmax, or any other softwares to creat a simple flash file that comprise of fade in/out images looping through various 10 second scenes.

Agreed. Though, since he asked, I must reply.

Google claims that it indexes textual content within swf but my personal test never work to confirm that claim.

Good luck!

Oh, I know what you mean, but I try to steer people away from flash as much as possible, as jquery is so much better for a site, as it weighs in at a fraction of a flash file. Anyway, with the post that outeredge2 posted in the thread that I pointed him to........I think he liked it. Now, I just hope that I got the "he" part right. If not, "she" may be mad at me.

I have been reading and rereading about putting flash into header as i cant for some reason use any jscripts but all the forums go back to nothing but jscript, so you seem to be a master of sorts in this field and im hopeing you can help me get a simple jscript into my header, i did have problems in the header a while ago ( http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=189312 ) maybe this has something to do with my no jscript working problem on my clients live site,
I want a jscript next to the flash rotating threw products and specials ext...
