How to put Flash to HTML

1) We downloaded your existing site (I hope!) The first thing you
need to do is create a new folder in the project window and call it
"flash". (Use the small folder icon under the blue apple.)
2) You need an index.html page in that folder for things to work.
Here's how you get it:

- In Flash, select File> Publish Settings...
- in the HTML tab, make sure you deselect the loop and menu items
(middle of the window). As a matter of fact, deselect any of those
options for now.
- In the Formats tab, make sure you have both Flash and HTML selected.
- When you're done, click the Publish button. Flash will then create
an HTML page and a .swf file. The HTML page will have the right code
in it for embedding the .swf file.
- Drag both files into the flash folder in GoLive.
- Rename the HTML file index.html

3) With the project window in GoLive open, click on the Server icon
in the ribbon menu (under the word Special - if you don't see it,
it's probably because the project window is not active/selected.)
4) When you are connected to the web space (when everything shows up
in the right hand section of the project window) you can click on the
Incremental Upload icon next to the Server icon. This uploads your
new files and folders - the ones you just created.
5) Open a browser (Firefox or Safari are best) and go to your webspace:

Your movie should work.
