Flash sites are made using a technology that is more advanced than standard HTML sites. However, organizing the management of such web resources is a more complicated task. A simple site administrator, when making any changes to advanced Internet resources of this kind, is much more dependent on the programmer who created the flash elements used in it.
Instructions
Step 1
The easiest way is to edit a professionally made flash site, in which programmers provide the ability to make changes to texts, hyperlinks, images and other elements. In this case, use the web resource management system - it should also include forms for editing content, similar to those used in conventional HTML sites. The main difference will be only in the absence of a visual page editing mode - everything will have to be done using form fields, and the resulting result will be viewed on the site itself, and not in the page editor.
Step 2
If the ability to change content is included in the Flash site, but no administration panel is provided in it, determine how texts, images, sounds, etc. are included in the Flash elements. They must either be contained in external files or placed in the HTML source of the pages. Search the site server for such files and, if they are there, edit the texts, images and everything that they contain.
Step 3
If there are no external files, open the source code of the page in any editor and use the search function to find the FlashVars variable. It is used to transfer data from HTML code to Flash elements. The variable must be quoted after this variable with the ActionScript variable name, separated by an equal sign from the data being passed. Leave this name unchanged, and the data after the equality can be edited.
Step 4
The most inconvenient editing option is editing content that is compiled into a swf file, and not loaded from the outside. If you have the sources of the flash site (files in fla format), edit their contents in a specialized editor program. Then, with its help, compile the modified site into a swf file and replace it with the same file on the site server.
Step 5
If there is no source code, try decompiling the swf file stored on the server using appropriate programs - for example, Flash Decompiler Trillix. Some of them allow you to make changes without using additional software (Trillix can). You need to edit the decompiled file as needed, compile it again and replace the original Flash site stored on the server.
