Re: FLASH: X-Ray Effect = How Did They Do That?

[Helen Triolo]

Charles,


The MIME type just has to be set correctly (to x-shockwave-flash) to run

Flash; otherwise you get unpredicable results viewing the site. At the

Lexus site, they had it set to something like octet-stream, but I just

went and looked again and they have it set correctly now (hmm, maybe the

designer is on this list? nah...) You can check from Netscape by doing a

View, Page Info and clicking on the embedded swf.  There's more info on

setting and checking the MIME type at

Regards,

Helen
