SWFObject: Javascript Flash embed script
This template uses the Flash detection and embed script provided by Geoff Stearns at http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/. This script detects whether or not the user has the Flash player, and if it does, it loads in the Flash movie for them to view. If they don't have the Flash player, it displays your alternate content. The alternate content is what you see in your web editor (a static image or text).

The SWFObject script also resolves the IE update issue where embedded Flash movies require an extra click for interaction; using the script will allow viewers to interact with the Flash movie directly. The SWFObject script also allows your web site to have fully validated HTML.

Please be aware that the script may be updated occasionally, and it is your responsibility to visit the SWFObject site to check for updates and implement them.

 How to replace the flash images
Below images files are used for the flash movies in this template:
 
- image_intro_01.jpg
- image_intro_02.jpg
- image_intro_03.jpg
- image_intro_04.jpg

- image_main_01.jpg
- image_main_02.jpg
- image_main_03.jpg
- image_main_04.jpg

1. In order to replace the image with your own, you simply need to create your own image in Photoshop and save the name of your image file as same as the original.

Note: If you save your image file using the "Save As" menu in Photoshop, somehow the images in the flash menu doesn't get replaced. What we have found out is if you compress the quality of image to 80% or greater, where the image size is 20k or above then the image is not displayed in the flash movie. So, please compress the quality of your images down to 70% using the "Save for Web" function in Photoshop.

2. Copy and paste your image files into the “images” folder.
3. Images in the flash banners will be automatically replaced with your own.

How to replace the flash menu & flash text
1. If you open the flash_text.txt file included in the web folder in FrontPage program, you will find the following codes;

&intro_1=Beautiful World Of Nature!
&intro_2=Top Four Seasons V2

&main_1=Add your text here 1
&main_2=Add your text here 2
&main_3=Add your text here 3
&main_4=Add your text here 4


2. Do not change or delete the “&intro(main)_number=” area. Just change the menu text to your own and save.
