Hi everybody,
I am a Photoshop user and work in restoration/retouching the pictures and
design.No experience in web design and animation.
I'm making a web page,with Fireworks 8 to show some of my jobs.So far
everything was ok. However i would like to add an [b]Animation text[/b].I
already made an animation text (in Fireworks) and I have a problem while
playing back.
In My home page(where I want to add the animation) I have a Rollover picture
and Buttons too. As soon as I hit play back ,the [b]Rollover and buttons
change[/b] and animate too at the same time than the Animation Text ,which is
not my goal.
[b]I want every objects to stay static except my Animation Text. How that can
be done?[/b]
I am sure I'm missing something, that's why I came here to ask help.
Any advice or guidance would be appreciated.
Here is the link of my web page but without animation:

If you create the animation in a separate document and export as animated gif,
you should be able to simple add anywhere in the final html page.

Hi heathrowe,
Thanks for the reply.
[Q]If you create the animation in a separate document and export as animated
gif, you should be able to simple add
anywhere in the final html page.
[/Q]
As I mentioned above I am new to web design and have no knowledge in HTML
coding.
I would wish to learn about html but unfortunately I don't have time and I am
making this web page just for my personal usage.
Just by curiosity,as you mentioned, how we can add the final animated gif
anywhere in the final html page in Fireworks?
That would be great if you know other options.
Thanks anyway

Make your animation in a separate Fireworks file and export the .gif file.
In your main Fireworks file, make a slice that is the same size and give it
the same name as the animation. This will just be a placeholder. After you
export your HTML and graphics, replace the placeholding graphic with your
animation. HTML refers to files by name. As long as the two files have the same
name, you can trade the animation for the static one.
A really great book on HTML is Elizabeth Castro's [i]HTML for the World Wide
Web[/i], although I think the title title is somewhat different now that it's
in the 6th edition. It's worth checking out.
Good luck!

pixlor,
Thank you for the info.
Here is what I did:
[Q]Make your animation in a separate Fireworks file and export the .gif
file.[/Q]
[b]Done[/b]
[Q]In your main Fireworks file, make a slice that is the same size and give it
the same name as the animation.[/Q]
[b]Done[/b]
[Q]After you export your HTML and graphics,
replace the placeholding graphic with your animation.
HTML refers to files by name. As long as the two files have the same name, you
can trade the animation for the static one.
[/Q]
[b]Done[/b]
After these steps, I opened the file in Dreamweaver and Preview in Firefox
browser but unfortunately it doesn't resolve the problem.I am wondering if this
problem can be resolved with Frames and Layers in Fireworks,thought.
Anyway thank you for your help and the book's reference.
