display swf in cf7 panel

[fmdano]

Hey,

I am trying to figure out how to display a .swf file in a cfform format =
flash page?
I tried to insert the object code, and that did not do it. I don't understand
why it does not work.


thanks

dan,
You need to use
<cfformitem type="html">
<img src="yourmovie.swf" />
</cfformitem>
possibly adding width and height to make it appear correctly. You may also want to wrap it with <p> tags

well, I tried using:

<cfformitem type="html">
<img src="yourmovie.swf" />
</cfformitem>
possibly adding width and height to make it appear correctly. You may also
want to wrap it with <p> tags

it would display the .swf, but the .swf would not work exactly right. I am
using a music player app I found online. I am trying to plug it into the cfform
so i can use it with my music files. It has a dropdown at the top that is
suppose to change depending on what gets selected. that does not work. also a
slider bar in a text area in the .swf does not work either.

I am wondering since cfform format=flash is in flash, could that be messing
with my .swf?

Ugh, i was hoping to get the music playing into a cfform panel because the
panels look nicer than tables.

any info would be great.
