[CommitteeEnt]

Whusts up guys, Im gonna just get straight to the point...We run a entertainment comany and i just put up our web-site..I got the template from templatemonster or some site like that and I have couple of questions

...here is my site http://www.committeeentertainment.com

1) How do I make the sound work when I add the flash site to dreamweaver..it works when i test the movie in macromedia flash but does not read it on dreamweaver...do i need to add the song to the server? and than how do i still have it play from there?

here is the script from flash--->

var numtrack = 1;
var maxTracks = 3;
my_sound = new Sound();
my_sound.loadSound("music/track1.mp3", false);
//
my_sound.onLoad = function(ok) {
if (ok) {
clearInterval(interval);
this.start();
tf_txt.text = "TRACK"+numtrack;
}
};
function loader(sound) {
var gbl = sound.getBytesLoaded();
var gbt = sound.getBytesTotal();
tf_txt.text = int(gbl/gbt*100)+"%";
}
my_sound.onSoundComplete = function() {
my_sound.start();
};
interval = setInterval(loader, 100, my_sound);
//
// player controls
btnNext.onRelease = function() {
numtrack++;
if (numtrack == maxTracks+1) {
numtrack = 1;
}
my_sound.loadSound("music/track"+numtrack+".mp3", false);
interval = setInterval(loader, 100, my_sound);
trace(numtrack);
};
btnPrev.onRelease = function() {
numtrack--;
if (numtrack == 0) {
numtrack = 3;
}
my_sound.loadSound("music/track"+numtrack+".mp3", false);
interval = setInterval(loader, 100, my_sound);
trace(numtrack);
};
btnStop.onRelease = function() {
my_sound.stop();
};
btnPlay.onRelease = function() {
my_sound.stop();
my_sound.start();
};
my_sound.start();

2) 2nd question is....
how do I do the same thing as above but with video..when i import the video inot the flash site on macromedia and then test the movie it works..but when I save it as *.swf and add it to dreamweaver it doesnt read it...?


3)Do I need a PHP to make the contact form send the email to me...if yes...how do I go about that

Simple answer is Dreamweaver does'nt play Music or Video.

You use Dreamweaver , or rather the html, to link the files you need to the page. The swf will leave a token, or block so that you know where it is going to be, but thats it.

You will only hear and see the stuff you have placed on the page when viewing in your browser.


3)Do I need a PHP to make the contact form send the email to me...if yes...how do I go about that


You will need something behind the form yes.

There's loads of freeware's stuff. Search hotscripts for something that suits your abilities.

Critique...

Generally I like it.

The only thing that really sticks in my eye is the reflections. They are a bit too strong for me. They also interfere with the paragraph text below them.

Answer, reduce the intensity of the reflections, abit more fade (only my opinion) and then increase the bottom padding on your headers.

Hope that helps :)
