Insert FLASH (.swf) file

Description:	Here is a quick 1-2-3 for inserting a Flash (.swf) file into a CuteSITE Builder/Trellix Web page. To use, you should have the following items: Your file that ends with .swf The associated HTML code generated for your .swf file
How to use:	For purposes of this example, the name of the file that I need to install is called 'sample1.swf' 1. From CSB/Trellix, display the page where you wish to insert your Flash file 2. If using CSB, click on Insert > HTML Code. If using Trellix Web, click on Insert a Build your own web gem. 3. Copy and paste the HTML code you were given into the window. You will need to edit the code as follows: look for a line that begins with: <embed src="sample1.swf" ... and change it to read: <embed src="^GEMDIR/sample1.swf" ... 4. Click on the button labeled 'Files for this compnent (or gem)", and select to add a file. Locate and insert your .swf file (sample1.swf, in my case) 5. Save and publish!
Example:	For an example of an SWF file installed, see Demo #22 under the Tutorials section!

Source code:

The HTML code provided with your SWF file may be as simple as:

<EMBED SRC="Soccer.swf" WIDTH="129" HEIGHT="148">

<NOEMBED>Get Flash !</NOEMBED>

</EMBED>

or something more complicated, like:

<EMBED SRC="Soccer.swf" quality="high" menu="true" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="129" height="148">

</EMBED>

</OBJECT>

Note: in both cases, you want to add ^GEMDIR/ inside the starting double quotes on the EMBED SRC line:

<EMBED SRC="^GEMDIR/Soccer.swf" WIDTH="129" HEIGHT="148">

-or-

<EMBED SRC="^GEMDIR/Soccer.swf" quality="high" menu ...
