Hi,

When linking an interactive layout into another interactive layout, everything works fine in the swf preview.

When exporting to HTML via web layout (shared content), the embedded interactive layout within the main interactive layout is missing?


Any ideas?



Many Thanks

Hi Chris

This is a known issue and we regret any inconvenience caused to you.

When you export the HTML from the web layout an image folder alongwth the HTML file is created.

This image folder would have 2 SWF files , one of the main Interactive layout and the other of the nested layout.

To work around the problem faced by you , simply move the swf of the nested layout from the image folder to the main folder containing the HTML file and the Image folder.

Hope this helps , please feel free to get back for any other further queries/comments.

Regards,
Kabir

Dear Kabir, I have the same issue as described by Chris. However, the resolution did not work. I did as suggested.... "To work around the problem faced by you , simply move the swf of the nested layout from the image folder to the main folder containing the HTML file and the Image folder. " I encountered 2 problems. First the embedded swf file did not export from the html project into the image folder. The main swf file does but the embedded one does not. So the suggestion obviously would not work. But I figured I could manually do all this. I went back to the embedded swf and exported that again and put the export into the main folder of the html project...still did not work.....I then put the embedded swf into the image folder to sit alongside the main swf...that did not work either. When I open the html export file in my browser everything appears properly except where the embedded swf should be it is blank. If you have any other suggestions that would be great. -ippi

Okay...I found out what i did wrong if anyone else is interested....Remember, this is about an embedded swf file. It inside a main swf file that is then being imported into an html project. When I had done this the main swf was appearing on the html but not the embedded swf. I went back and retraced all of my steps and found a minor mistake... i went back into main flash file (the one which was being exported to the html file). I then went to page with the embedded swf import box and noticed it was not labelled within the interactive palette as an object or anything. It had only been imported into a box. On that first go-around for some reason the embedded swf (which had not been labelled on the interactive panel as anything) was working as a swf on preview mode of the main swf even though I had only imported it into a box and never labelled it. I think because the embedded swf was functioning on preview within the main flash file that is what made me forget to actually label it as an object/swf to begin with... (all before exporting that onto an html page, as you might recall it was at that point that the embedded flash file was disappearing) On the rebuild I made sure the box with the embedded swf was labelled as an object and then labelled as swf in the interactive object panel. Follow ???? Then I followed Kabir's suggestions for making sure the embedded separate swf file is located in the html export folder. After all that it now works.
