How do I make an Autodesk Maya 3D file into a Flash Movie that anyone can view in a 3D fashion?

Question by InnovationzFtw: How do I make an Autodesk Maya 3D file into a Flash Movie that anyone can view in a 3D fashion?
I have a model made in Autodesk Maya 2008, a 3D modelling software. I want to put it in a website (possibly with Adobe Flash CS3) so that common users can see my model from all directions, e.g., they can rotate, zoom in, out, etc, so they can see all parts of my model without having the Autodesk Maya software.

Any help would be appreciated,
Thank you.

There is no real way to do this. Instead, render separate frames of the camera doing a complete 360 rotation around the model. Make sure you output separate frames. Make a movie clip and map each frame to a keyframe in the movie clip, the insert this code:

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
this.gotoAndStop( mouse._x / number of frames you have in the clip);
}

then make a new keyframe in your main timeline, and insert this code into frame 2:
gotoAndPlay(1);

what’s your website? send me a msg.
