Flash header

Hi

I have quick CMS and need to change the banner at the top for a flash animation.

I have read this link:

http://opensolution.org/Quick.Cart/docs/?id=tips#how_to_add_flash_animation_in_header_instead_of_banner_with_logo

but I don't understand what you mean by this:

"Replace that line with code generated in program where you have created your animation.
If you placed your file witch “swf” extension in directory templates/img/, you should paste that path to code which you wrote before. File templates/container.tpl is shown using index.php and path should be relative to that file. "

I have created a file, .swf and uploaded to img folder on the server.

How do I incorporate that into my site?

Thnaks

You can use google to search for example code like this: http://animation.about.com/od/flashanimationtutorials/qt/embedswfwebpage.htm

Any other suggestions?

Have you inserted path to your file like this: <EMBED src="templates/img/Yourfilename.swf"

flash code looks like this:


 <object width="790" height="220">
         <param name="movie" value="header.swf">
         <embed src="header.swf" width="790" height="220">
         </embed>

you need to modify and insert it into where you need, for example, in <div id="head2">Here goes your code</div>

Maybe You use bad path to file. You should start from main folder fe.: templates/img/header.swf

DUNNO - but maybe i didn't read attentivly or something missed - but i found all these ways useless.
And this one also
http://opensolution.org/Quick.Cart/docs/?id=tips#how_to_add_flash_animation_in_header_instead_of_banner_with_logo
or maybe this need just another level of understanding.

Here's is how i just won this war:
content of my file - a1.HTML
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=koi8-r" />
<title>a1</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#000000">



<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0" width="600" height="120" id="a1" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="a1.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" /><embed src="a1.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" width="600" height="120" name="a1" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>
</body>

</html>

The row46 of file container.tpl or in other words row that starts from <h1>
should look like this:

<h1><a href="$config[index]" tabindex="1"><embed src="$config[dir_templates]img/a1.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" width="600" height="120" name="a1" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></h1>
