Embedding Flash While Supporting Standards!

Howdy!

I Have an Embedded Flash Movie n'a Webpage That, I'm Tryin'2 "Validate"!

Validation Results (http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.recallguinn.blogspot.com%2F)

As You Can See It Is Not Possible To Validate This Webpage Using This Code:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
WIDTH="200" HEIGHT="100" id="recall_logo">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="http://www.recallguinn.com/recall_logo.swf"> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#CCCC99> <EMBED src="http://www.recallguinn.com/recall_logo.swf" quality=high bgcolor=#CCCC99 WIDTH="200" HEIGHT="100" NAME="recall_logo"
TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">
</OBJECT>

On Recommendation of "pyro", I Read "A List Apart: Flash Satay (http://www.alistapart.com/stories/flashsatay/)" By Drew McLellan!

Now, I Have This Code:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="c.swf?path=http://www.recallguinn.com/recall_logo.swf" width="200" height="100"><param name="movie" value="c.swf?path=http://www.recallguinn.com/recall_logo.swf" />
<img src="http://www.recallguinn.blogspot.com/ReCallKennyGuinnLOGO.jpg" width="196" height="104" alt="" /></object>


...Where "c.swf"="The container movie is c.swf."?

I Don't Quite Understand What "c.swf" Should Be???

Can Someone Explain What "c.swf" Should Be, To Me?

Thank you!

Depending on the filesize of your flash movie, you may not even need to use c.swf. c.swf is a container movie, that is used to get around an M$ IE bug. What it is, is a movie that is the same size (in pixels) as your other movie, and is used to preload the original. On my site (http://www.infinitypages.com/webdesign.php), the flash files were small enough that I did not worry about it. But, if your files need to preload, you can find the c.swf file at http://dreamweaverfever.com/play/flashsatay/.

Oh! O.K.!

Therefore, My Code Is...


<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.recallguinn.com/recall_logo.swf" width="200" height="100"><param name="movie" value="http://www.recallguinn.com/recall_logo.swf" />
<img src="http://www.recallguinn.blogspot.com/ReCallKennyGuinnLOGO.jpg" width="196" height="104" alt="" /></object>
