Well it is not a secret that Joomla is very user-friendly and flexible software. It is hard to surprise you with the fact that Joomla can contain Flash elements. The point is that you can do that by yourself or just buy some of our awesome Joomla 1.5 templates. Of course if you think that you can handle this situation we have some advices for you.
Well there are two ways that might help you to implement Flash environment to your Joomla website. First create your Flash animations in Anim-FX, and make sure the *.swf and *.txt files are in the base html directory. Do not make the mistake of uploading them into the images or images/flash directory. Also the flash does not work if loaded into the template directory. Both files must be in the html directory where the index.php file is located.
Install Flash Modules available on the internet for Joomla users
There are 2 Joomla Flash Modules and they both seem to work fairly well but one seems to have some problems with the File Path Parameter.
This is also the one that runs a Java Script for the flash as an option which seems to eliminate some IE 7 anomalies when you click on the flash window. The Modules are then controlled through Joomlas Administrator window and can be assigned to different places in the website to appear and not appear as desired.The Modules can also be assigned to different locations on the page left, right, top, header, etc… More information you can find here…
