Hi, I am new to Director. I have been told that I need to add the following
tag to my movie to update my movie to SW 11. Where do I go in Director to put
this html code? Thanks for any help, Brian.

<object classid="clsid:233C1507-6A77-46A4-9443-F871F945D258"

codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/director/sw.cab#vers
ion=11,0,0,0"
ID=b width=320 height=240 VIEWASTEXT>
<param name=src value="a.dcr">
<param name=swRemote value="swSaveEnabled='true' swVolume='true'
swRestart='true' swPausePlay='true' swFastForward='true' swContextMenu='true' ">
<param name=swStretchStyle value=none>
<param name=PlayerVersion value=11>
<PARAM NAME=bgColor VALUE=#000000>
<embed src="a.dcr" bgColor=#000000 width=600 height=400
swRemote="swSaveEnabled='true' swVolume='true' swRestart='true'
swPausePlay='true' swFastForward='true' swContextMenu='true' "
swStretchStyle=none
type="application/x-director" PlayerVersion=11

It does not go anywhere inside director. It is the HTML for the page
that displays the dcr (shockwave) movie. When you publish the movie in
Director, you can check the HTML box (in Publish Settings) for HTML and
it will make a HTML file similar to this. Since you have your own, you
would not need to do that... just substitute this HTML for the one that
Director builds for you.

Hi Brian,

I have a tutorial on publishing to Shockwave at:
http://www.deansdirectortutorials.com/publishing/shockwave.htm

It explains the settings in Director and some of the HTML code.

I am concerned because I am trying to force Shockwave to read Audio Xtra 6.1.
My ".dir" used 6.1 but my ".dcr" uses 6.0. I have the following alert in my
movie script which shows the version:

alert (string(axGetVersion())).

When I found the hmtl it already had the player version set to 11. Any
thought how I can force shockwave to use version 6.1 of the audio xtra? The
following is the current html in my ".dcr".

<html>
<head>
<title>vocabularyArt</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
</head>

The version of the xtra that you use in a dcr has exactly nothing to do
with the HTML code that calls the dcr. If your Director authoring
environment uses the newest version when you publish the projector, then
the newest version should be used in the dcr.

If that has already been done, then it is possible that the repository
you point to in the xtrainfo.txt is serving up an old version. In which
case, make sure it points to an updated version.
