I have an SWF on the header section of our site. It's embedded with Kimili Wordpress Plugin:
<div class="swfheader">
<?php echo do_shortcode('[kml_flashembed publishmethod="static" fversion="8.0.0" movie="http://xxx/uploads/2016/Assets/header.swf" width="1950" height="270" targetclass="flashmovie" play="true" loop="true" menu="false" quality="best" scale="noscale" allowfullscreen="false" allowscriptaccess="never" allownetworking="none"]'); ?>
</div>
Problem I'm having is auto play. In most browsers a "play" icon shows up for the swf to start and in other browsers everything works fine.
I used Adobe Animate CC to create it and publish settings under HTML Wrapper has only the loop option checked.
Is there any way to fix this issue? I'd like to have SWF auto play in all browsers if possible.
Your banner size is triggering the browsers assumption that it's some external advert banner (those need to be "click to play" in case of some noisy data hogging video advert that no-one asked for). To avoid it, the html & swf must be in same exact location:
Example :
mysite.com/post1/page.html and mysite.com/post1/banner.swf.
I don't know how you will meet that expectation via Wordpress since your posts .html file & your uploads folder content exist in two separate locations.

I am new to HTML and CSS (So that may be the issue). I entered the following code into my html doc:
<video controls width="700">
<source src="video/PristineCustomCleansVideo.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
The video I want to play is inside a folder called video. The index.html and the video folder are nested inside a folder together.
The video shows up on the site I'm making as a gray rectangle with controls (in a Brave browser). When I press play nothing happens. I also tried opening my page in Firefox and within the gray rectangle it says "No video with supported format and MIME type found."
I looked up this question and have found so many confusing suggestions. Whatever you recommend, please do it as if I know very little about computers (I thought I knew a good amount until reading some of the responses and can't follow what I should do. lol)
Another issue I am considering is if I have to do a lot of work to get the video to play, will others that I send my website URL to have issues as well? This is for a class project. I have to put everything on the school's server and share the URL with the teacher.
If your index page and the video are located in exactly the same place you do not need the video folder in the path to your file. The following should work.
source src="PristineCustomCleansVideo.mp4" type="video/mp4"
I am a high schooler & a novice to bookmarklets. I want a bookmarklet that can make a floating iframe on top of a website with a .swf file as it's contents. I've tried many solutions, but a major obstacle is that simply pasting the .swf link as an iframe content ("https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/shirtjs/gstore#v1/cubefield_24.swf". I know, it's stupid.) just downloads the swf file, as we are using moderated chromebooks. Can somebody provide me a bookmarklet code that makes this?
"...But a major obstacle is that simply pasting the .swf URL link as an iframe content just downloads the swf file, as we are using moderated chromebooks."
This has nothing to do with moderators. As a software security issue, Chrome does not accept/load direct links to SWF files unless the link is inside a media tag like <object> or <embed>.
(maybe) solution:
Consider your current <iframe> line...
<iframe src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/shirtjs/gstore#v1/cubefield_24.swf"></iframe>
Replace with <embed>code...
<embed src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/shirtjs/gstore#v1/cubefield_24.swf" width="550" height="400">
I have a flash object I need to embed on my tumblr blog (Billy's audio player) and the embed works fine, except that I need to click a white play button before the object works:
(this is in Chrome; there is a similar play button on Edge)
However, other websites don't have this play button over the widget, including the widget's own webpage and the bottom left of this blog.
This is the embed code, taken directly from the Billy's audio player webpage (with added newlines for readability):
<embed src="http://www.sheepproductions.com/billy/billy.swf?autoplay=true&f0=http://www.sheepproductions.com/sammy.mp3&t0=Sammy&total=1"
quality="high" wmode="transparent" width="200" height="10" name="billy"
align="middle" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" title="Adobe Flash Player">
Is there something I can add to make the flash object run automatically? I doubt it's a browser issue, as it works on some other webpages, and other viewers also see the white play button.

SWF and HTML must be in the same exact location (ie: web folder).
If SWF url is : http://www.sheepproductions.com/billy/billy.swf
then HTML must be : http://www.sheepproductions.com/billy/pageWithSWFembeded.html
This issue is caused by the small width/height of your SWF. Browsers assume it is a Flash advert banner and do not auto-load it. It can be fixed by either increasing SWF display size or by putting the small SWF in same location as HTML page that loads the SWF.
Also consider using HTML5 audio tag to guarantee playback of website audio even on mobile devices (they don't run Flash content within default browsers).
I currently open a pdf in an iframe. The iframe is hidden and whenever the user hits the button, the iframe loads the pdf source. When the window closes, it removes the source.
The problem that I have is that when a person views the iframe, messes with the zoom and pages, then closes down the iframe, the next person is stuck with the work that the other person was doing. Is there a way I can reset a pdf back to the default zoom, page, orientation, etc?
I've been doing some testing and it seems that adobe has a cache that will cache the settings until the browser closes down. An example is go to
http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf
Mess with the zoom and pages, go to a different web page, and when you go back to that url, you'll see it's the exact same as you left it. I assume that there is a setting that I have to set in adobe reader. I've also tried setting defaults with parameters, but that doesn't seem to be working.
This is for internet explorer 11.
Additional Info
this is for a kiosk system that is running IE11 in Kiosk mode. The shell has been replaced by ie, and it's set to load the site with the hidden iframe. The system is running Adobe Reader X 11.0 and I'm using the following to embed:
<object id="pdf" data="kill-charts.pdf" style="display: none;" width="100%" height="100%" type="application/pdf">
</object>
I've tried embed as well, but it doesn't make a difference. I swapped to object because I wanted to try with parameters. I tried this
<object id="pdf" data="kill-charts.pdf" style="display: none;" width="100%" height="100%" type="application/pdf">
<param name="zoom" value="100" />
</object>
but that didn't work after the second load.
If you look on the last page of the link you provided you will see that you can append #zoom=50 to the URL as follows:
http://example.org/doc.pdf#zoom=50
This will make the browser open it at 50% every time. You can also add other parameters as well such as page number:
http://example.org/doc.pdf#page=1&zoom=50
This method will work at least for the Adobe plug-in, but not guaranteed for other PDF plug-ins.
We allow users of our application to embed a webpage containing a set of thumbnails into another third party webpage/blog etc. The embedding is done by using an object tag.
Each thumbnail provides an option to download original file. When user clicks on this option, the embedded content is disappearing in Safari 5.1.1 and Chrome 15.0 and instead "Could not render embedded content" is shown. Whereas FF 8.0 works correctly i.e. the embedded page stays there even after download, as it should.
The embed code we are using is like this -
<object data="http://myserver.com/em.aspx?e=FytXStk=" height="600" width="900" type="text/html">
<p>Could not render embedded content.</p>
</object>
Can anyone see what might be wrong here? Thanks.
I had to add target="_parent" for the download link. That did the trick.
Actually, if you just choose "Shockwave" instead of "Flash" from the drop down menu for video type, it all works perfectly.
Joomla Core Team has gotta do a better job on notifying developers and webmasters. It's obviously not obvious.
