"That seems roundaboutopening a webpage that opens a dialog box...that opens another web page :-)" Ehhh. It works. I use that technique a lot in modal windows. I use it with non-modal pages sometimes with cfchart. I load the chart in its own iframe so it doesn't slow the whole page down.

yes..other content shows just fine, the text "Insert Flash object here" etc. shows up without a problem. It's just the Flash. A second page in the same directory displays the Flash video just fine. For the iframe method...you mean just drop an iframe into the Dialog box that will load a separat

Are you getting a js error? does the script Scripts/swfobject_modified.js exist? have you tried adding other content to that div, to see if it is content that doesnt show, or just the object? It might be that once you show the dialog to the screen, you might need to rerun the swfobject.register

instead of putting a style="display:none", use javascript to hide it first. jQuery cannot unhide an item that is hidden by css. $(document).ready(function() { $("div#terms").hide();}); On Aug 4, 2010, at 2:48 PM, Vivec wrote: > > I've been playing around with JQuery for the last few hours an

I've been playing around with JQuery for the last few hours and getting absolutely nowhere. What I want is that when a link is clicked, a modal dialog box opens up on the screen, and inside that box is a flash movie. The flash movie is the floor plan for a mall. The idea being that the link will

Something like thickbox using the iframe switch would work as well. There are many successors to thickbox, but for simplicity sake, I still use it. J - Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyr

I have a site for a local Mall. I want to have a link that reads "Click Here to View Interactive Floorplan". And when that is clicked, a Ajax style window swishes open to display the Flash movie of the floorplan. Anyone know a quick way, or a tool, that would generate this behaviour? ~
