Updating Streaming Web pages with Different File Names
Many times updating Streaming web pages can be tedious, especially now since not only do you need to include Embed and Object tags in your authored pages but you also need to include the javascript code. This means if you're using streaming web page templates you'll need to make a file name change in three different places. However, if you're using at least Dreamweaver 8 this process can be easier using the Find and Replace feature.
Here's how it works. Locate and highlight the file name you would like to replace. In this tutorial I'm updating the CarsRacing.mov file and replacing it with the TrucksRacing.mov file.
Next go to the Edit Pull-down menu and choose the Find and Replace option.
This will open a dialog window that shows the file name you are finding and then you can add the file name you're replacing. In my case I want to type in the name of my file that I'm replacing the CarsRacing.mov with. So I've type in TrucksRacing.mov. The last thing you need to do is click the Replace All button which automatically updates the file name in the Embed, Object and Javascript code.
