bigdog660 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Is it possible to add a Flash weather sticker to my signature? If so, how would I do it? Here is the code: Quote <object width="290" height="130"><param name="movie" value="http://www.wunderground.com/swf/pws_mini_rf_nc.swf?station=KTNKNOXV19&freq=&units=english&lang=EN" /><embed src="http://www.wunderground.com/swf/pws_mini_rf_nc.swf?station=KTNKNOXV19&freq=&units=english&lang=EN" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="290" height="130" /></object> Weather Underground says I only need to insert the code above for it to work. I tried to use <CODE>, but still no joy. We suppose to see this in my signature: Thanks in advance for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinwood Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Flash is old and full of exploits that hackers can use. Don't use Flash. HTML5 is the new hotness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdog660 Posted January 6, 2017 Author Share Posted January 6, 2017 Unfortunately, WU does not offer any HTML5 stickers yet. Even if I try to use strictly HTML4 code, I still can't get the sticker to work. Quote <a href="http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=KTNKNOXV19"><img src="http://banners.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/banner/ban/wxBanner?bannertype=pws250&weatherstationcount=KTNKNOXV19" width="250" height="150" border="0" alt="Weather Underground PWS KTNKNOXV19" /></a> Really has me puzzled. There is such a thing as a flash to HTML5 conversion software, but there is really no SWF file to download and run through the converter. The flash file has parameters which merely pulls data from the WU servers and inserts them on the web page (I think I'm right on this). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophisticated Skeptic Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 how do we correctly incorporate this then? I installed the image sticker from wunderground...but it's still caching my temp from earlier this afternoon. any walkthroughs would be nice.
