Advanced Effect Maker - What to do with the created file
Now
that you have created your first effect, what do you do now?
Take the HTML tags from the window in which you see the effect. It contains
the crucial <OBJECT> and <EMBED> tags that you must have to
run the applets (or <SCRIPT> tags if you created a JavaScript).
They will look something like this inside the file (these are the tags
for verticalscroller):
<OBJECT classid="clsid :D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com /pub/shockwave /cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0"
WIDTH=200 HEIGHT=100>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="verticalscroller1.swf">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=opaque>
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#ff0000>
<EMBED src="verticalscroller1.swf" quality=high wmode=opaque bgcolor=#ff0000 WIDTH="200" HEIGHT="100"
TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave /download/index.cgi ?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
This sure looks complicated, but you don't need to worry about this. The only thing you need to do is to copy this text completely, and paste it into the web page that you want to put the applet into. If you are using a HTML editor, just paste it using the "Paste HTML" feature if there is one. For JavaScript effects, the tags may look like this:
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="jsechotext1.js">
</SCRIPT>
IMPORTANT! COPY THE WHOLE TEXT BETWEEN THE <OBJECT> TAGS IF YOU A MAKING A FLASH EFFECT OR BETWEEN THE <SCRIPT> TAGS IF YOU ARE MAKING A JAVASCRIPT EFFECT.
You must then put the SWF or JS file into the same folder/directory location as where you have your page.
IMPORTANT! The SWF file MUST be where your HTML page with these tags is located! This applies to JavaScript files (JS) too.
