Getting blank .swf files? Check here.

BTW, with the new FAC, you don't need to upload any 'extra' folders. It creates a single .swf file for you.

I'm gonna cry

:image09: What's going on, this is what I am looking at how do I fix this, I wanna see <sob>

FAC Works Great For Me

FAC has worked great on my site. My site http://www.vehicleclips.com and I have used flash ads for the main page, legal page, about us page, and a few more pages. It works so well. I am planning on purchasing a copy for a friend's site. Keep it up, Laughi:image28:ngbird.

IE7 Does Not Show Flash Ad but FF2 does

I've posted a test page that shows the FAC 2.5 ad I created and another test Flash I created using Flash CS3 Professional in Firefox 2.0.0.7 but only shows my test Flash in IE 7.0.5730.11, not the FAC 2.5 ad. Here's the URL:

Why won't it show in IE7? I inserted it in the same was as my simple test Flash and the code looks the same to me. I even tried swapping the two files in the same page by changing the movie and file names in the appropriate places but the FAC 2.5 ad still would not show.

HELP! :image09:

Thanks.

Thanks for the quick reply Marc. I'm glad to hear that it's working somewhere. But I'm still having the problem looking at the file from my system.

I haven't updated the file since I posted it. I am running the latest version of IE7 with the latest updates (build 7.0.5730.11) and I have set the Internet Zone to default security. I get the same behavior on my local system as I get on the Web. Since I'm able to download the flash test file I created and see it in IE7 (and I have the same problem on localhost) I don't think that my firewall is the problem (I turned it off and still have the same problem anyway). My computer is running Windows XP SP2. I'm running a version of Flash that must be acceptable since I didn't get a prompt to download a later version (I'm running FlDbg9c.ocx).

I have tried Safari 3.0.3 (522.15.5) on Windows and it doesn't show the FAC ad either. It seems that only FF shows it, at least on my PC.

I can see the ad on IE6 on a different PC running Windows 2000.

I hope someone has an idea of the problem. Maybe a setting on my system but I can't think of one.

Thanks.

I don't like McAfee or Symantec stuff. I'm using NOD32. I tried accessing the page with NOD32 disabled and still had the same problem.

Are you seeing 1 or 2 flash items? There should be 2 on the page. The first is the fancy FAC ad and the second is a dumb flash element I did to test that I could flash. I can see the second one - the one I did- but not the first one - the FAC ad.

Chris,

Thanks for the screen shot and feedback. I've totally disabled NOD32 and popup blocking in IE7. Still not FAC flash.

What's strange is that the lower flash movie shows - that's the one I created myself just to see if any Flash would show. So the one I made does show up in my IE7 but the FAC 2.5 Flash does not show.

This leads me to think there is something about the FAC 2.5 produced Flash that's different. But I don't know what? My Flash was created with Flash CS3 so it's using the latest everything (I keep it updated).

Any ideas why FAC 2.5 Flash doesn't show and my Flash CS3 does?

For more info, when I run FAC 2.5 and take a stock ad and export it unchanged, I get the message to preview my ad. I click yes and then IE7 gives me the message that it's blocked an ActiveX control and do I want to let it run. I click yes, and the ad doesn't show up.

I'm thinking it might work if I could import the ad into Flash CS3 and then save it as an updated file. Any one know how to do this?

Same thing happening here. FAC 2.5. the result swf is viewable in the flash player but shows up blank in ie7 and ff 1.5
tested with unmodified templates too.

I´ve just found that the same ad is viewable from IE6

Marc ? Anyone?
