Fla-shop.com F.A.Q.

Follow these steps to install the map to your webpage.

1. Extract the contents of the purchased zip file to your local computer using any compressed file extraction application (e.g. WinZip, 7Zip, WinRar, etc.)

2. Upload the following files to the server, without changing their file names:

   a. usa_locator.xml (this is the customized configuration file)

   b. usa_locator.swf (the engine file for the map)

3. Now you need to insert the HTML code to your page where you want your map to be. To do this, paste the HTML code to your web page where you wish the map to be rendered.

HTML code:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
 codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
 WIDTH="530" HEIGHT="410" id="usa_locator" ALIGN="">
 <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="usa_locator.swf">
 <PARAM NAME=FlashVars VALUE="xmlfile1=usa_locator.xml"> 
 <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
 <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
 <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#F5F5F5>
 <EMBED src="usa_locator.swf?xmlfile1=usa_locator.xml" quality=high  wmode="transparent" bgcolor=#F5F5F5  WIDTH="530" HEIGHT="410" NAME="usa_locator" ALIGN=""
 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>

Note: the code above assumes that you uploaded map's files to the same folder where the HTML page that will display the map is. If the files are stored in some other folder, you need to adjust the paths accordingly.

For instance:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
 codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
 WIDTH="530" HEIGHT="410" id="usa_locator" ALIGN="">
 <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="/folder/usa_locator.swf">
 <PARAM NAME=FlashVars VALUE="xmlfile1=/folder/usa_locator.xml"> 
 <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
 <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
 <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#F5F5F5>
 <EMBED src="/folder/usa_locator.swf?xmlfile1=/folder/usa_locator.xml" quality=high  wmode="transparent" bgcolor=#F5F5F5  WIDTH="530" HEIGHT="410" NAME="usa_locator" ALIGN=""
 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>
