AC_RunActiveContent.js error

[eddiewireless]

hello

I am trying to publish a movie form flash, but every time I run the HTML file i get and error stating:

This Page requires AC_RunActiveContent.js

How can I fix this

[CyanBlue]

Do you have that JS file placed in the same directory as your HTML file???

Flash exports a dreamweaver file and you need to upload that as well as the swf/html files in order to work....Didnt notice that before:eek: now it works fine

i am having the same problem with my file. the thing is i lost the orignal flash file as my hard drive blew up the only thing i could recover was a html file. this file was a result of me trying to compress the origanl file so that i could send it over to a friend but every time u open it it says u need AC_RunActiveContent.js. is there anyway of making the file work!

You can dowload it from here...

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I wanted to provide a simple solution to everyone's problem. If you're getting that alert box, it means that you are missing the AC_RunActiveContent javascript file. You could download it from Adobe's site here (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/activecontent/articles/devletter.html#multipleoccurrences)

Or, if you'd like a direct link, you can download just the js file from my website at

http://www.kozisgreat.com/js/AC_RunActiveContent.js

Just put that file in the same directory as your html file that's calling the .swf, and it should do the rest on it's own. Good luck.

Your link is exactly the same I already posted twice in this thread! :eek:

[akozlik]

Ha ha, yeah I noticed that right after I posted. Ah well. The direct link to the js will be good just so they don't have to download the entire zip. Alas, I'll be more careful next time.

When FTPing the .js file, use "Binary transfer".

Try it with the swfObject instead of the shitty AC_run active content...

http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/

Or the latest version...

this is a dumb question but how do I use swfObject instead of AC...
if I have to do java script then I maybe in trouble since I dont know how to code at all.:confused:

[atomic]

Did you check the links?

You don't have to code the javascript... It's an embedding method similar but MUCH BETTER than the AC... shitty script...

And there are basic examples on how to use them on both links...

If you can't code, can you read? :p

[CyanBlue]

It sounds like a good time to start learning new stuff... ;)

The GotoAndLearn has video tutorial on how to use SWFObject 2...

For those that can't read? ;)

[CyanBlue]

Well... For those who understand video better than the words... ;)

I received a zipped file from my designer and when I opened the .html file, I got the AC_RunActiveContent.js error. Following the thread, I added the file to the zip file (thanks for the direct link) but I am still getting the same error when I try to open the .html file. Any suggestions? My designer is not available today and it is very important that I review this piece today if possible.

Is the path to the JS file correctly set in the HTML file???

Sorry, I could not work out how to put up a new thread; only a reply to thread. It concerns AC_RunActiveContent.js, I think.

I created a SWF with three buttons, one to play audio, one to play video and one to show text. Prior to uploading to my website everything worked fine. But the swf file on my website only plays the audio and shows the text. If you click the top, righthand button for video you cannot play the video of a robocomedy. The link is at http://www.marykingmedia.com/manga2/index.htm

When uploading to Dreamweaver CS3 I received an automatic download of AC_RunActiveContent.js, as well as a file called .htaccess
I put them in the same folder as the swf and uploaded everything together, but still no joy. I have viewed the swf in Mozilla, IE7 and Flock, but the video does not play.

Do you have any idea how I can get the video to play? I think the problem must be with the AC_RunActiveContent.js or/and .htaccess file but I do not have the foggiest what to do?

Thanks,
Mary:cool:

there should be some javascript in the head of the html:

<script language="javascript">AC_FL_RunContent = 0;</script>

stick AC_RunActiveContent.js in the same folder as your HTML and set the 0 above to 1.
