Inserting a Swish Flash into Your FrontPage Web

This tutorial presumes you know nothing of HTML


   Once you have made your "movie" you probably have saved it as a .swi file. This is the file type that Swish uses, but you need to use the export to SWF SWF tab of Swish 1.51 and save it as a .swf file for the Flash player, in the visitor's browser, to use it on your Web site.


   Now use the import feature of FrontPage 2000 to bring the swf file (not the swi file!) into your Web. This needs to be in the same directory (folder) level as the page that is going to use the "movie". (You can move it later and FrontPage should recode it for you, as long as the page that is using it, is not open).


   Now click the Export tab in Swish and click Copy HTML to Clipboard tab of Swish 1.51


   Go back to the page in your FrontPage 2000 Web, open it (if not already open), type in "Place Movie Here" (without the quotation marks), where you want the movie to be. Then click on the HTML tab. Find Place Movie Here in the HTML, highlight it, right click on the highlight, and click paste. (this should paste the code form Swish to your page).


   Save page and preview in browser. Your movie should show up right where you wanted it.
