Specifying publish settings that create HTML
documents with embedded Flash content
Playing Flash content in a web browser requires an HTML document that activates the SWF
file and specifies browser settings. This document is generated automatically by the Publish
command, from HTML parameters in a template document.
The template document can be any text file that contains the appropriate template
variables—including a plain HTML file, one that includes code for special interpreters such
as ColdFusion or Active Server Pages (ASP), or a template included with Flash (for more
information, see
“About configuring a web server for Flash” on page 499 ).
You can customize a built-in template (see “Customizing HTML publishing templates”
on page 482 ) or manually enter HTML parameters for Flash using any HTML editor (see
“Editing Flash HTML settings” on page 488 ).
HTML parameters determine where the Flash content appears in the window, the
background color, the size of the SWF file, and so on, and set attributes for the
object
and
embed
tags. You can change these and other settings in the HTML panel of the Publish
Settings dialog box. Changing these settings overrides options you’ve set in the SWF file.
