Sounds like you want swfobject.addLoadEvent(fn) (http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/api )
Call your swfobject.embedSWF() inside the loadEvent function and you should be all good to go. A test page is here: http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/swfobject/testsuite_2_1/test_api_addloadeven t.html Cheers, Aran -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nick Sent: Tuesday, 14 April 2009 9:16 PM To: SWFObject Subject: polite downloading Is it possible with SWFObject, to load/play/reveal the flash movie once all the other files (html, images etc) associated with an HTML page have fully loaded? The problem is I am using a transparent background in the flash, and I have a fairly large (filesize) transparent background loading through CSS and the flash loads before the image and it looks a bit funky. I know some rich media advertising platforms (like eyeblaster) only load the flash banners after the pages has fully loaded, they refer to it as polite loading, but I wasn't sure if this was compatible with SWFObject. Any ideas would be much appreciated. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SWFObject" group.
