Re: [Swftools-common] Re: swftools do not works on debian squeeze

Edmond,

****************************************************************
You only need to post to *one* address, i.e. the mailing list
address, address@hidden  We'll all see the message.
****************************************************************

Your response below, leads me to believe that you've jumped way
to quickly to conclusion that is not necessarily true.  SWFTOols
*does* work. If it didn't, you'd not be able to create SWF files,
nor be able to execute the two programs that create them, namely
swfc and pdf2swf.

What you are not able to do, is view the resulting swf.

Debian 'Squeeze' is in testing phase, and compiled from an unstable
branch.   Could be all sorts of things missing, including the Flash
plug-in for whatever browser you are trying to use to view the swfs.
( I don't use Debian, probably never will. So, am not familiar with
'squeeze'. )

Execute the following command with your simple swfc produced swf,

  swfdump -E box.swf > box.html

then try to open the resulting 'box.html' in whatever happens to be
your default browser.  If its something like Firefox, and the Flash
plug-in is missing, you'll be asked to install it.  If it is something
entirely different, Dillo say, then you may just get a blank screen. That
means the Flash plugin is missing, and needs to be installed.

Regards,



Chris.
