Hi,
My problem is the following:
i have an flash class similar to the one in the demo, but then i upload an file i cant find it later. So if i trie to view it just blank white box.
The file seems to get uploaded as it is in var/storage (just has another name).
the url of the file looks something like this: /selby/content/download/95/407/ez.swf

ez version: 3.5.1

Thanks in advance

Hi Bernhard,

Could you show part of your code used to view flash file and the output?

thats the important part of the flash full view template:

    <div class="content-media">
    {let attribute=$node.object.data_map.file}
        <object codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0"
                {section show=$attribute.content.width|gt( 0 )}width="{$attribute.content.width}"{/section} {section show=$attribute.content.height|gt( 0 )}height="{$attribute.content.height}"{/section} id="objectid{$node.object.id}">

        <param name="movie" value={concat("content/download/",$attribute.contentobject_id,"/",$attribute.content.contentobject_attribute_id,"/",$attribute.content.original_filename)|ezurl} />
        <param name="quality" value="{$attribute.content.quality}" />
        <param name="play" value="{section show=$attribute.content.is_autoplay}true{/section}" />
        <param name="loop" value="{section show=$attribute.content.is_loop}true{/section}" />
        <embed src={concat("content/download/",$attribute.contentobject_id,"/",$attribute.content.contentobject_attribute_id,"/",$attribute.content.original_filename)|ezurl}
               quality="{$attribute.content.quality}" pluginspage="{$attribute.content.pluginspage}"
               {section show=$attribute.content.width|gt( 0 )}width="{$attribute.content.width}"{/section} {section show=$attribute.content.height|gt( 0 )}height="{$attribute.content.height}"{/section} play="{section show=$attribute.content.is_autoplay}true{/section}"
               loop="{section show=$attribute.content.is_loop}true{/section}" name="objectid{$node.object.id}">
        </embed>
        </object>
    {/let}
    </div>

and thats the output:

<div class="content-media">

            <object codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0"
                  id="objectid95">

        <param name="movie" value="/selby/content/download/95/407/ez.swf" />
        <param name="quality" value="high" />
        <param name="play" value="" />
        <param name="loop" value="" />
        <embed src="/selby/content/download/95/407/ez.swf"
               quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"
                 play=""
               loop="" name="objectid95">
        </embed>
        </object>

        </div>

This code should work. I hope ;-)

    {let attribute=$node.object.data_map.file}
<object codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" 
		{section show=$attribute.content.width|gt( 0 )}width="{$attribute.content.width}"{/section} {section show=$attribute.content.height|gt( 0 )}height="{$attribute.content.height}"{/section} id="objectid{$node.object.id}">
  <param name="movie" value={concat("content/download/",$attribute.contentobject_id,"/",$attribute.content.contentobject_attribute_id,"/",$attribute.content.original_filename)|ezurl} />
  <param name="quality" value="{$attribute.content.quality}" />
  <embed src={concat("content/download/",$attribute.contentobject_id,"/",$attribute.content.contentobject_attribute_id,"/",$attribute.content.original_filename)|ezurl} quality="{$attribute.content.quality}" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" 
{section show=$attribute.content.width|gt( 0 )}width="{$attribute.content.width}"{/section} {section show=$attribute.content.height|gt( 0 )}height="{$attribute.content.height}"{/section}></embed>
</object>
    {/let}

This does not wok either.

Could it be that the path to the flash file is wrong? if i enter it into my browser it says content modulke not found.

Its the first time i work with ezPublish, so please be patient ;-)

Ahh now it works.
i just stripped of the filename form the url ($attribute.content.original_filename), and now the movie plays!
