The procedure for inserting a banner made using flash technologies into a page is not much different from that for a conventional graphic banner. Below is a description of the sequence of actions for placing a flash banner in the HTML code of a website page.
Instructions
Step 1
The first step is to upload the flash banner to your website server. The easiest way to do this is to use the file manager of your site management system or the hosting administration panel. But you can also use a specialized program - FTP client. You can find a lot of such programs in paid and free versions on the network, but they will require setting, mastering and entering passwords and FTP server addresses. Therefore, using a file manager to move files between your computer and the server is preferable. In some cases, advertisers prefer to store banner files on their servers. Then, of course, you should skip this step.
Step 2
Then you should prepare the code to be inserted into the page of your site. As a rule, the advertiser, along with the banner, also provides the HTML code required to display it on the page. It can be "raw" code, or it can be inserted into the master page. In the second case, you need to open this page (a file with the htm or html extension) in any text editor and find the part of the code that starts with the <object classid tag and ends with the tag. In full, it may look like this:
You need to make sure that the address of the banner in this code matches where you placed the file with the swf extension in the previous step. Change it in the code if necessary. Usually this should be done in two places: - find the <param name = "movie" tag and write your address into the value of the value = "variable; - find the <embed tag and write the same address into the value of the src =" variable. Then all this select and copy the block.
Step 3
Now you need to open the source code of the page selected to insert the banner. The easiest way to do this is in the CMS page editor - open it, find the required page and switch the editor from visual editing mode to html-code editing mode. If you are not using CMS, you can download the file with the page source code and open it in a text editor. To download, use the same tool as for downloading the flash file in the first step. After opening the source code of the page, find the place where you want to see the banner and paste the copied block of code. Then all that remains is to save the changes made in the page code. If the page was downloaded from the server, load it back.
