A newbie here. I want to embed a SWF movie on my web page, and have some
questions:

1) When the Adobe Flash Player is called up, its settings automatically start
the movie. Is there a way to change these settings so that when a third-party
accesses the page, I can direct the visitor to right-click to start play
manually? Is there a way to delay the start until a significant portion of the
buffering is attained?

2) I'm working in GoLive and Macromedia Pro 8. I've learned that in
Dreamweaver, the designer can easily create a media skin with controls that
will attach to the swf movie file. Is there a way to do the same thing in
GoLive with the swf object palette?

3)I've tried to create the manual play button in Flash 8, but for some reason
the button does not travel and function with the published swf file.

4)In the end, all I need is a simple Youtube-like skin to start the movie, but
accomplishing this with a swf has proven more difficult than it probably should
be.

Any insight on these would be greatly appreciated.
