Flash For Blogger

Flash files can be embedded in your template or posts. Though it can slow down the loading of your blog.........

you can use small flash files for your header as well as for navigation links within your blog. To do this first upload your flash file to a free host like Googlepages. If for some reason you cannot get an account at Googlepages you can create your own Google Group. This will give you 100 MB free space for your files. See Google Groups Tips and Tricks for Bloggers.


After uploading your flash file copy down its URL or link. Then use the following code :

<object width="150" height="340">
<param value="MYFLASH.swf" name="movie"/>
<embed width="150" src="URL OF MYFLASH.swf" height="340">
</embed>
</object>

Change the width and height as per the dimensions of your file. Instead of 'MYFLASH.swf' and 'URL OF MYFLASH.swf' put the relevant details of your flash file and paste the code in a Html/Javascript Page Element in the sidebar. See how to add widgets to blog. For example I have a flash navigation widget at the end of the right column of this blog.

Click on the various links to open them in a new page.

Flash Header


To add a Flash header to your blog first add a Page Element to your header as described in How to add a picture to a Beta Blog Header. Then click on Add Page Element and choose Html\Javascript option and paste the above Flash code in the contents section and save. First upload your Flash header file to a freehost like Googlepages or Google Groups and then modify the code given above and use it.
