Error in FSCommand HTML template that breaks FSCommands in Netscape

Issue



FSCommand does not work in Netscape even though the HTML was generated using the Flash 4 Publish feature's FSCommand template.

Reason


The template that Flash uses to publish the HTML file with FSCommand is missing the NAME parameter in the <EMBED> tag. This parameter enables the Flash plug-in to communicate with JavaScript in the browser.

Solution



There is a new version of the Flash with FSCommand template that resolves this issue. It is available on the Flash Support Center Downloads page. It is also possible to edit the existing template to resolve this issue.
Edit the FSCommand template to include the NAME parameter.

To edit the template do the following:

1

Open the FSCommand template in an HTML or text editor.

2

Inside the <EMBED>tag, insert the following code:

 NAME=$TI 
3 Save the template with the same file name, FSCommand.html, in the HTML folder inside the Flash 4 application folder.
