dhtmlxFolders not working with Flash .swf files and the AC_RunActiveContent.js

dhtmlxFolders.

Hi there,

dhtmlxFolders is not working with flash script: AC_RunActiveContent.js :

Replace NewHeader.swf with your own .swf file. There is a conflict.

<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

Can you please provide some more details how you are using dhtmlxFolders and swf player script?
There must not be any conflict from using the both scripts on the same page, but if you are using flash objects inside dhtmlxFolders - it may be problematic. Folders recreated the elements object after some events which will break normal flash functionality.

I have the same problem as Shane. But the problem I have is in dhtmltree. I did not use flash inside dhtmltree. Once I include the dhtmlxcommon.js. The flash won't work any more. You must have some conflicts with flash's AC_RunActiveContent.js.

Everything in that code about flash is generated by flash itself. Replace the .swf file to your local swf file. Any swf file would do the job. Thanks.

Everything in that code about flash is generated by flash itself. Replace the .swf file to your local swf file. Any swf file would do the job. Thanks.

Hi there,
Sorry for posting the code in several places. Just found out that it might be useful to include the flash generated code too. Thanks.

Please delete those duplicated post.
