<object codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=4,0,2,0"
height="250" width="350"
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000">
<param name="movie" value="shutter6.swf" />
<param name="menu" value="false" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#e8e8e8" />
src="shutter6.swf" menu=false quality=high
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="350" height="250"&gt;
</object>


just replace the filename (shutter6.swf) and sizes wherever they occur.

You might also want to provide a fallback for people like myself whom don't normally have proprietary Flash Plugin, enabled on a browser, for example:

<object data="image.png" type="image/png">
<p>You Cannot View the Flash File, etc.</p>
</object>

ok thanks thats great

i must be being really thick cos when i embed the flash file it just shows a blank backgorund with no button. do you have to do something with the button in flash before you embed it?

[DaveSW]

have you exported as as a .swf file?

is the file path definitely correct?
