Flash movie as home page

[burping_frog]

How do i load up a flash movie as my home page, instead of having to embed it in my index.htm file??

Cheers

As far as I know ... U can't. U see, when u go to a certain domain, it will automatically go to index.html . What u could try is spawn a projector from yer index.html. Its somewhere in the tutorial section.

Ok i see what you want to do , i'll explain as if you are using dreamweaver ok , set up an index in dw , then create an enter button but set the enter button as a download for a swf file (your website) and that'll be it
any way i dont know any real way to actually make an index page in flash but im sure someone does !

Probably the easiest way to do this is to simply put a "redirect" meta tag in the index.html.

Automatically redirect visitors to a different page

< meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0"; url="http://www.yourdomain.com/yourflashwebsite.swf" >

This META tag redirect code will redirect your visitors to another web page instantly. The content="0"; may be changed to the number of seconds you want the browser to wait before redirecting.

I've done this and it works, but you might want to put up a warning to your viewers that they must use the buttons to navigate the site. Hitting "Back" on the browser just sends them back where they came from.
