I'm a complete newbie to web site development. I would love some help on this issue I'm having.
I am using CoffeeCup Web Form Builder to create a way to submit email addresses to be added to a email list. The program creates a SWFobject file, xml file, html file, php file, and a js file. It also gives me a code to copy onto the web pages that I want the form to be added to.
The code is: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://swfobject.js">
OOPS! You forgot to upload swfobject.js ! You must upload this file for your form to work.
<script type="text/javascript">var so = new SWFObject("default_form.swf", "default_form.xml", "512", "31", "7,0,0,0", "#ffffff");so.addParam("classid", "clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000");so.addParam("quality", "high");so.addParam("scale", "noscale");so.addParam("salign", "lt");so.addParam("FlashVars", "xmlfile=default_form.xml&w=512&h=31");so.write("CC2724982");
It works except that I can't position the SWF object to another part of the page. I need to move it to the far right, about 2 inches down. Do I edit the web page displaying it and how do I do that? do i need to edit the xml or swf file? I apologize for the complete ignorance.
Yes, positioning is all done via your html. SWFObject is just for getting your flash to the screen. Use CSS or tables etc to position your flash on the screen.
BTW - you can get rid of these lines from your code. They are unnecessary, as SWFObject adds them for you autmatically:
