Introducing ASPNetFlash

The ASPNetFlash Control allows Adobe Flash media (.swf files) to be embedded into your ASP.Net web forms.

The ASP.Net Flash Control is unique in that it:
- Removes the annoying "Click to activate and use this control" message on Flash Movies.
- Automatically detects the client's Flash plug-in version and, where appropriate, displays alternative HTML.
- Allows fully-featured ASP.NET HTML-alternative code, supporting full access to code-behind and all controls.
- Produces XHTML compliant code (conventional Flash embedding techniques do not).
- Allows you to dynamically send data into your Flash Movie from ASP.Net as variables or entire XML documents.
- Produces search engine friendly code.
- Allows you to produce WAI compliant, accessible websites with Adobe Flash media.
- Automatically detects your Flash Movie's principle properties, so that Flash can be added to your web pages in just a few clicks.
- Exposes an API for you to control Flash Movies at Run-Time using JavaScript.


Installation
=================================

Download and unzip the appropriate ASP.Net Flash component for your development environment:
- Download ASPNetFlash for ASP.Net 2.0 from http://www.aspnetflash.com/ASPNetFlash/ASPNetFlashSetup2_0.zip
- Download ASPNetFlash for ASP.Net 1.x from http://www.aspnetflash.com/ASPNetFlash/ASPNetFlashSetup1_x.zip

Once downloaded and unzipped, run the included executable to automatically import the ASP.Net Flash Control into your Microsoft Visual Studio Toolbox.


Usage
=================================

Once installed, drag the ASPNetFlash control from the toolbox onto your ASPX web form in design mode. You will see that it renders as a Flash-Enabled logo.

Change the MovieURL property to point to a SWF file. You must have already added the SWF file to your ASP.Net application in the Solution Explorer.

The Flash Movie will now be rendered into your web page.
