Hi,
I'm trying to incorporate some flash into my html templates (GT products) but can't get it to work.
Has anyone done this?
I downloaded a sample flash template from TemplateMonster to see if I could get it working before I buy anything.
If I upload all the files to my public directory and call them up there is no problem but when I try to incorporate them within my GT product html templates it doesn't work. I guess this is because the GT templates are not in a public directory (e.g my cgi directory). I have tried using -
<%include /path/to/my/public/dir/flash.html%>
to call up the files from my public directory but it still doesn't work.
I'm sure the problem is something to do with were my files are located and would appreciate it if some could explain which files go where when incorporating flash with GT products (e.g. Can I put swf files and image files in my template directory? etc).
Any help would be most welcomed.
Thanks.
PS the flash template I downloaded includes the following index.html file -
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body style="padding:0;margin:0;background-repeat:repeat-y" background="images/bg.gif">
