Thank you Miguel but I found out that the problem is with my swf file. It is originally an mp4 file, I tried to convert it with Flash CS4 but any options I choose seems not working when I call the file form my web2py view.
When I right click the swf exported by Flash and choose open with Firefox (the same with IE6) Flash Player starts ok and I can see the movie. When form inside Flash I try Publish Preview I can see the movie in my browser. But if I call the file from a web2py view or I manually call the /static/myfile.swf form the browser nothin happens I can see nothing. When I tried to export the original mp4 file to swf with another software everything is ok (but I have an awful compression rate). Do you have any experience with Flash swf conversion? Or can you suggest a better format for online tutorials (flv ?)..thank you On 28 Lug, 19:28, Miguel Lopes <mig.e.lo...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Tue, Jul 28, 2009 at 4:48 PM, carlo<syseng...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > After several tries I have to ask: are any particular issues with > > embedding flash objects in views? > > > I put the usual in my view: > > > {{url=URL(r=request,c='static',f='somefilename.swf)}} > > <object width="550" height="400"> > > <param name="movie" value="{{=url}}"> > > <embed src="{{=url}}" width="550" height="400"> > > </embed> > > </object> > > > what's bad here?
