Codezwiz >> Forums >> General PHP Nuke Help >> Preloader

Hello everyone

hope all is well. I have downloaded a simple preloader from somewhere. It's a gif and I would like to replace it with a flash file I have. I am posting the contents of "my_header".php file with the preloader I use now. I am also posting the flash movie html contents...I need to know exactly how I edit the my_header to get the flash preloader to load. I had to attach a text file here...it would not let me post the code in the forum...it said that the html file was not allowed.
Thank you all, echo

Do you want this as a preloader or a splash page? Its pretty big to be a preloader.

Telli

I never thought of that...I could use it as a splash page and then use my little one for my preloader? if so please point me in the right direction...I would use this as a splash page in an Index.html page and then just leave the preloader where it is? or toss it? Will this be kinda like a redirect so my site will still have time to load like it does with the preloader now? Thank you Telli, echo

Whats the address to the preloader so I can throw something together for you.

Telli

This is the one I downloaded:

I am still workin on getting that piece of pie into an e-mail

Ok sorry i meant the address to the flash page so i can get you a splash page together.

Telli

Oh..Lol, I see what you mean now, sorry. I don't have a flash splash page...I just thought I could use a flash file I have for the preloader. I will attempt making a new small preloader with flash (It's gonna be bad) maybe you can just point me to where I edit that my_header file to insert the flash code and all? Maybe when you have extra time (I realize you probably don't) you could make me one kinda like yours on this site? I think darker shades of gray would be nice? Thank you, echo

Save it your computer then upload to your host.

Telli

Thank you very much Telli. I wish the best for everyone in the new year.

i just had a question about where to put my code as of right now the preloader stays on my page and doesnt do anything except sit there (position absolute)
