embedding a flash file

I've embedded a flash file into an assembly:

[assembly: WebResourceAttr ibute("Namespac e.main.swf", "applicatio n/x-
shockwave-flash")]

But when I try to reference it on a web page:

<object codebase="http://download.macrom edia.com/pub/shockwave/
cabs/flash/swflash.cab"
height="100" width="100" classid="clsid: D27CDB6E-
AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000">
<param name="src" value="/WebResource.axd ?d=bYC1eHVfsX9X-
yIbBHXWbUVMFGQV vrZPQF0kP_mR3y4 x7BaHrIsA2V8j5M oYYcTy0&amp;t=6 330725220393750 00">
</object>

it never loads. The page just times out.

When I try to load the resource directly in the browser it shows that
the content-type is not set and that the content-length is 0.

I know the webresource string is correct and pointing to an existing
resource because it works for an image file.

Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong?

There's more to it than that. You need to put an attribute into your
AssemblyInfo file, example:

[assembly: WebResource(web Resource, contentType, performSubstitu tion)]

There is more information in the documentation for WebResource.axd , as well
as a couple of good articles by third parties if you care to search.

There's a couple of steps you need to take to make sure you're able to
spit out resource files from compiled resources...
One of them is the assembly:WebRes ource attribute...
Another is NAMESPACE!
This would be the namespace of your application plus the FOLDERS your
files resides within...
The last point CANNOT be stressed enough!
I'll be willing to bet a couple of ORGANS that this is your
problem...!!

A good example I know about is one of the sample extensions controls
in Gaia (e.g. http://ajaxwidgets.com/AllControlsSa...omControl.aspx
)
If you download Gaia Ajax Widgets and check out any of the "extension
controls" you'll be able to see a working sample of spitting out a
JavaScript file to the browser from a compiled resource...

Is there a way to embed a powerpoint slideshow in a webpage? I have an application which requires a slideshow in one of the frames of the application. One option would be to get the users to save the PPT as HTML, grab the images files and upload them to my app. Then use Javascript to do the slideshow. However, it would be a 100 times easier for the users to simply upload a PPT or better PPS file. I can manage the upload of the file no

How would I go about embeding a flash application into an HTML page? Note that I say flash application, it's not just the average .swf file. How do I embed that or is it possible? I am familiar with the whole "<object>" embedding as I use it to put alot of games (namely .swf) on my site. Would that be used here also? Thanks
