Adding a flash banner to the home page

  1. Log in to your administrator panel and click on the Site layout link in the LOOK AND FEEL side box on the right.
  2. Enter your banner code under the In this section you can edit the text to be displayed on the store home page section.
  3. The code will look like this:
    <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http:/
    /download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/
    swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="FLASH_WIDTH"
    height="FLASH_HEIGHT">
    <param name="movie" value="FLASH_PATH" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <embed src="FLASH_PATH" quality="high" wmode="transparent"
    width="FLASH_WIDTH" height="FLASH_HEIGHT"
    allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
    </object>

    where FLASH_PATH is the URL of the flash animation file, FLASH_WIDTH and FLASH_HEIGHT are the flash sizes in pixels (each parameter is defined twice in the code).
