    • Can't use .swf as banner?

    Posted by loobian posts: 60

    This is the HTML code I insert:

    Copy to clipboard
    <center>
<OBJECT WIDTH="468" HEIGHT="60" 
id="codejock_468x60" ALIGN="" 
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" 
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0">

<PARAM NAME=movie 
VALUE="http://www.cpp-home.com/Pictures/banners/codejock_468x60.swf?clickTAG=http://codejock.com/&target=_blank">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF>

<EMBED WIDTH="468" HEIGHT="60" NAME="codejock_468x60" 
ALIGN="" 
src="http://www.cpp-home.com/Pictures/banners/codejock_468x60.swf?clickTAG=http://codejock.com/&target=_blank"
 bgcolor=#FFFFFF TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality=high 
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>

</OBJECT>
<br>
</center>

    And it loads nothing. No error, but just as there is no banner.

    certain HTML tags, of which object and embed are removed as part of a security measure.

    You will have to add it directly into the TPL file instead of using banner tag.

    I was curious about this too. When you say add it directly into the TPL file could you explain more, please. I'm assuming that is for template and so I would need to figure out if there is one template or many templates for my itkiwiki site.
    Thanks,
    Bruce

    Easy:

    1. SSH to the site
    2. cd templates
    3. vi tiki-top_bar.tpl
    4. Enter the embed and object code
    5. :wq to save and exist
    6. refresh browser


    😊

    Can I un-remove these tags?
    I really need to put .swf and putting it into the template is not OK because I want banners rotating system, and not fixed banner!

    You can do they are in tiki-setup.php. However I must say that removing these tags, opens your site to a massive risk of security problems.
