Whipped up a site in Flash because simple, but have to change to html as 56k modem users can bake a medium size cake whilst waiting to load.

Sitespinner seems pretty cool so will soon replace flash.

Having difficulty getting an applet to work on front page - but hopefully will resolve

Hi bugsonfilm.com,

Happy to hear you choose SiteSpinner over Flash. If you are interested in Interactive Animation you should check out the [URL=Web Engine V2 beta]http://www.virtualmechanics.com/products/engine/index.html[/URL].

Let us know if you still encounter problems with the applet integration.

applet insertion not resolved yet - the applet to insert requires the following to be placed in the same directory (apparently):
applet html code parrameters
3 class files
1 image

Not sure how to complete SiteSpinners foreign object javaapplet form when it opens. Will ask in 'How to do forum' when ready for it.


Have successfully (so far) been able to copy same structure as seen on website (made as flash file) with SiteSpinner.
PLUS
justify across text box
add scroll bars to text boxes

Very good product - will be trying WebEngine for the animation bits - then more than likely will settle for WEng purchase for all future website work

Regards Steve

Glad to hear that things are working out. Keep in mind when a foreign object requires that you place content into a specific directory that you will find that it won't work when you Preview, but should work when you Publish. This is because when you Preview the files are saved to a temporary directory - not the same one you Publish to (and that you would have saved the Foreign Object content to).
