{elseif $lng.lbl_site_title}
<h3>{$lng.lbl_welcome_to|substitute:"company":$lng.lbl_site_title}</h3>
{else}
<h3>{$lng.lbl_welcome_to|substitute:"company":$config.Company.company_name}</h3>
{/if}
*}
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td><img src="{$ImagesDir}/front_page1.jpg"></td>
<td class="frontpageRight">{$lng.txt_welcome}</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
{if $active_modules.Bestsellers ne "" and $config.Bestsellers.bestsellers_menu ne "Y"}
{include file="modules/Bestsellers/bestsellers.tpl"}
{/if}
<br />
{include file="customer/main/featured.tpl" f_products=$f_products}
simply replacing the "{$ImagesDir}/front_page1.jpg" with "{$ImagesDir}/front_page1.swf" aint working, so what do i need to do?
i did check out this thread but i couldn't really make sense of it. any help would be greatly appreciated. |
You can not insert a flash as a picture.
You need to use a special code to insert a flash.
PHP Code:
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
WIDTH=264 HEIGHT=195>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="{$ImagesDir}/front_page1.swf">
<PARAM NAME=menu VALUE=false>
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=transparent>
<PARAM NAME=scale VALUE=noscale>
<EMBED src={$ImagesDir}/front_page1.swf menu=false quality=high wmode=transparent scale=noscale WIDTH=264 HEIGHT=195 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
