Embedding SWF in Django

davidkt

Well, I think I have the problem. Maybe Django can't serve binary files and I'll have to use another server. I noticed that all the binary files on the Scratch website were served by another server, cdn.scratch.mit.edu. So, any good free static file hosting servers?

Remember when I looked like this? I still do.

*Brain goes kapoof*

Why not host another site, that hosts the swf, and use iframe to put it on your site, I think thats what scratch does mostly….

That's what I'm doing. But any good hosting sites? I'm using 000webhost for now.

I used 1FreeHosting, but with a little site like that you could host pictures and sqls on a diffrent site and then saving space on your orignal site.

(000webhost is better

Ok, I got 000webhost to work, but the file won't load right. You can see what I mean here.

First, your swf file won't load, even if you open it directly. Second, I see you copied and pasted incomplete code from my archive. You need this (adapted from here) to grab variables like the project from the url:

var uri = window.location.href;
var queryString = {};
uri.replace(/([^?=&]+)(=([^&]*))?/g, function($0, $1, $2, $3) {queryString[$1] = $3;});

Third, the Scratch Team has removed the ability to interact with the swf using javascript from the source code, along with the ability to read the flashvars for a project url and then load it. You'll need to recode it to get it working.

Uh…what? I know it won't load.

Are you using the 10.2 or the 11.4 version of the SWF?

11.4. Should I use the 10.2?

Ok, so what else should I do?

Does it work when you use it offline? If it does, try another static host. 000webhost can be unreliable, and I've known it to corrupt files before. I use Google Drive for static hosting. If it doesn't work when you run it offline, I don't know how to help you. I don't seem to be getting any errors when I run the SWF.

It works offline.
