Icon Player for HTML - Inline Flash Icons

As Icons are ASCII, they can be passed as parameters in HTML. One generic swf player, many icons and buttons.\0

The player (swf) is passed drawing instructions and layout parameters to render icons/buttons in your HTML. Simply add the free player(swf) to your site and go make some icons.

Player Source & Samples

The player accepts the following parameters via FlashVars:

icon: icon ASCII text
align: how to align the icon within the player bounds.
TL - Top-Left (default)
TC - Top-Center
TR - Top-Right
CL - Center-Left
CC - Center-Center
CR - Center-Right
BL - Bottom-Left
BC - Bottom-Center
BR - Bottom-Right
x: move icon x pixels
y: move icon y pixels
url: make the icon clickable with a URL link (Activates hand cursor)
target: target a browser window
scale: percentage scale of icon (default = 100, 200 = 200% of original, 50 = 50% of original)

Hopefully you will find it useful, especially since you don't need to open Flash to make this work.



Cheers,

Ted ;)
