The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Flash movie to play only once - built with Dreamweaver CS4

Asked by fuddruckers in Adobe Dreamweaver, Miscellaneous Web Development, Web Browsers

Tags: Cookies - Flash - Dreamweaver CS4

Hello,
My goal is to be able to have a flash video that loads on my website automatically when a visitor arrives for the first time, but not re-load upon subsequent page refreshes. There are several posts on the exchange recommending the use of cookies to accomplish this.

However, I am not familiar with the case code needed to direct the object tags. Also, I do not have the source .fla file. Any help would be great. Thanks!
