Navbar and flash

[Pope Viper]

I've got a flash animation that contains all the main nav buttons (user CP, FAQ,etc), I would I intergrate this into my site??

Edit this template:

Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> « » -> Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates -> navbar

This is the block of code that represents the navlinks:

<!-- nav buttons bar -->
<div align="center">
	<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:0px">
	<tr align="center">
		<if condition="$show['member']">
			<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a></td>
		</if>
		<if condition="$show['registerbutton']">

		</if>
		<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="faq.php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="5">$vbphrase[faq]</a></td>

You can embed a flash object by using code like this:

<embed src="[color=red]path/to/flash.swf[/color]" />

Arghhh. Well, here's my Navbar code


No matter where I insert the embed src comment, I get a white box, followed by black.


Well, I think I figured out one of my problems, I created a nav bar as one complete piece, whereas I should have created an individual animation to replace each button.

Knowing that, how would I incorporate each button/animation to the navbar?

[Jake Bunce]

You would need to embed each and every flash object. Duplicate the code I posted.
