Update Flash content for Dreamweaver

To add the content to your page, export SWF files directly to a Dreamweaver site. Dreamweaver generates all the needed HTML code. You can start Flash from Dreamweaver to update the content. In Dreamweaver, you can update the Flash document (FLA file) and reexport the updated content automatically.

For more information on working with Dreamweaver, see Using Dreamweaver in Dreamweaver Help.

  1. In Dreamweaver, open the HTML page that contains the Flash content.
  2. Do one of the following:

    • Select the Flash content within the HTML page, and click Edit.

    • In Design view, press Control (Windows) or Command (Macintosh), and double-click the Flash content.

    • In Design view, right-click (Windows) or Control‑click (Macintosh) the Flash content, and select Edit with Flash.

    • In Design view, in the Site panel, right-click (Windows) or Control‑click (Macintosh) the Flash content, and select Open with Flash.

  3. If the FLA file for the exported file does not open, the Open File dialog box appears. Navigate to the FLA file, and click Open.
  4. If the user used the Change Link Sitewide feature in Dreamweaver, a warning appears. To apply link changes to the Flash content, click OK. To prevent the warning message from appearing when you update the Flash content, click Don’t Warn Me Again.
  5. Update the FLA file as needed in Flash.
  6. To save the FLA file and reexport it to Dreamweaver, do one of the following:

    • To update the file and close Flash, click the Done button above the upper-left corner of the Stage.

    • To update the file and keep Flash open, select File > Update for Dreamweaver.
