1. Re: Flash in DW CS3 template issues
UniqueCreations Mar 30, 2008 10:07 AM (in response to UniqueCreations)I have found a work around. It seems that whenever I make a change to the template and save it, after it updates the pages that use the template file is where the Flash is getting messed up. So as a work around I need to copy the content of the editable region for the page that I want to fix. Then create a new page from the template. Paste the copied content in the editable region, and then save the page overwriting the existing page in question.
While this works, it seems a bit redundant and I would much rather figure out how to get this to work properly. -

that by changing this -

Then make sure that a) the file 'spirit_life_header.swf' is IN THE ROOT
FOLDER.
