Requirement: Embed a flash document inside a content page using a macro. The Swf file must be specified through a macro parameter.

What this does: Basically this will allow you to embed a flash file just like you would an image inside a content page.

Proposed XSLT: (More than happy to hear other ways of accomplishing this)

Code:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:Stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp "&#x00A0;"> ]>
<xsl:stylesheet
    version="1.0"
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
    xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library"
    exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library">


<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>

<xsl:variable name="flashFile" select="/macro/flashFile" />

<xsl:template match="/">

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" id="flashControl" align="middle">
<xsl:attribute name="width">
  <xsl:value-of select="/macro/width" />
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:attribute name="height">
  <xsl:value-of select="/macro/height" />
</xsl:attribute>
<param name="movie">
<xsl:attribute name="value">
  <xsl:value-of select="$flashFile/node/data [@alias='umbracoFile']" />
</xsl:attribute>
</param>
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<embed quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" name="flashControl" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">
  <xsl:attribute name="width">
    <xsl:value-of select="/macro/width" />
  </xsl:attribute>
  <xsl:attribute name="height">
    <xsl:value-of select="/macro/height" />
  </xsl:attribute>
  <xsl:attribute name="value">
    <xsl:value-of select="$flashFile/node/data [@alias='umbracoFile']" />
  </xsl:attribute>
</embed>
</object>


</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Eli - sounds cool. can you upload .swf files directly into media? i've tried but am getting a "The page cannot be displayed" error when I try to upload. also, I'm using a 3.0 beta...

Does anyone know if it’s possible to use this code and www.jeroenwijering.com FLV player?
<embed src="/assets/mediaplayer.swf" width="470" height="255" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="height=255&width=470&file=/assets/video.flv&backcolor=0x000000&frontcolor=0xFFFFFF" />

My try goes like this:
Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
<!DOCTYPE xsl:Stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp "&#x00A0;"> ]> 
<xsl:stylesheet   
    version="1.0"   
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"   
    xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" 
    xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library" 
    exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library"> 
 
 
<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/> 
 
<xsl:param name="currentPage"/> 
 
<xsl:variable name="flashMovie" select="/macro/flashMovie" />   
 
<xsl:template match="/"> 
 
<xsl:attribute name="width"> 
  <xsl:value-of select="/macro/width" /> 
</xsl:attribute> 

<xsl:attribute name="height"> 
  <xsl:value-of select="/macro/height" /> 
</xsl:attribute> 

<param name="movie">   
<xsl:attribute name="src"> 
  <xsl:value-of select="$flashMovie/node/data [@alias='umbracoFile']" />   
</xsl:attribute> 

</param> 
<param name="quality" value="high" />   
<param name="flashvars" value="height=255&width=470&file=/assets/video.flv&backcolor=0x000000&frontcolor=0xFFFFFF" />   

<embed quality="high" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="height=255&width=470&file=/assets/video.flv&backcolor=0x000000&frontcolor=0xFFFFFF">   
  <xsl:attribute name="width"> 
    <xsl:value-of select="/macro/width" /> 
  </xsl:attribute> 

  <xsl:attribute name="height"> 
    <xsl:value-of select="/macro/height" /> 
  </xsl:attribute> 

  <xsl:attribute name="src"> 
    <xsl:value-of select="$flashMovie/node/data [@alias='umbracoFile']" />   
  </xsl:attribute> 

</embed> 
</object> 
 
 
</xsl:template> 
 
</xsl:stylesheet> 
 


But this fails… :blush:
