The cdf. files that I create do not display properly. They can be opened, viewed, and manipulated with Mathematica, but CDF Player is able to display them only partially, even after enabling Dynamics. The same problem occurs when they open in a web page. I get the right size box and properly labeled axes, but a tan background (the intended one is light yellow). The four sliders appear properly labeled above the display window, but none of the real content (a disk, three arrows, and a sphere) of the demonstration appears. The slider buttons slide, but since there are no objects in the display, they can't do anything. To the best of my knowledge, I followed all the instructions for preparing the .cdf file: close unwanted cells, hide brackets, enable Deployed in Cell Options --> General Properties --> Deployed, making sure that the file "rotate_demo.cdf" was selected in the menu of the Options for Global Preferences dialog. I saved the file as .cdf using the menu choice in the save dialog. I tried each of the following two html tags in a web page. <script src="http://www.wolfram.com/cdf-player/plugin/v1.0/ cdfplugin.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript">// <! [CDATA[ var cdf = new cdf_plugin(); cdf.addCDFObject("rotate_demo_applet", "rotate_demo.cdf", 800, 800); // ]]></script> <embed src="rotate_demo.cdf" width="1000" height="1000"> Files downloaded from Wolfram's demonstration .cdf files and opened in in either a browser or the CDF Player display and operate properly, so it seems the error must occur when the files are created. Any ideas? Mathematica 8, iMac, OS X 10.6.8, Chrome, Firefox
