can i use SiteSpinner to make a link by flash object either as popup window or normal link ? and how please

To make your Flash object, you would need a separate program. But the links from inside the Flash object should be easy -- either use the full URL or a URL like this: MyOtherPage.html. For the latter, MyOtherPage.html must be in the same folder as the Flash file.

A popup window would also be possible but more difficult.

If you have included a flash file on your page via SiteSpinner's foreign object tool, then you can right-click on the object and edit the link to jump to when the user clicks on the flash movie.

ive tryed to do that via SiteSpinner and did not work ..
other thing i noticed .. let me say i have an icon made by photoshop and i import it in SiteSpinner and put it in the page.. does effect the link either work or not work if this icon was in back of other objects?

What exactly did you try and in what way did it not work?

Your second question is much easier For the link to be active, the object with the link must be on top (front). If necessary, use the front/back buttons on the bottom toolbar.

the thing it didnt work was using SiteSpinner to create a link with a swf object (flash object) ive tryed all kind of link and it didnt work .. i guess i missed something.. dunno

about the front issue .. if u made a link and it was at back and u change it to front .. it dun work also

Bruce is correct. If your purpose is to have your visitor click on your flash file and jump to a link, you should embed you link inside the flash file. You will need the proper flash development tools for this. This is especially true if your flash file provides interaction with your visitor; e.g., a game file that requires keyboard and/or mouse control. In these cases, the flash file will "eat" any mouse clicks before a SiteSpinner link can be activated.

If you are just using a flash movie, then another way is to use a code object and wrap your flash object within a link. For example:

<a href="http://where-i-want-to-go" target="_blank"><span>
<OBJECT classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0"
WIDTH=124 HEIGHT=72>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="flash-filename.swf>
<PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false>
<PARAM NAME=menu VALUE=false>
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=scale VALUE=noborder>
<PARAM NAME=salign VALUE=LT>
<PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=transparent>
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#000000>

<EMBED src="flash-filename.swf" loop=false menu=false quality=high scale=noborder salign=LT wmode=transparent bgcolor=#000000 WIDTH=124 HEIGHT=72 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"></EMBED>

</OBJECT></span></a>

Of course, replace the href destination and flash movie file names with what you need.
