Why won't it validate?

[Daniel T]

What do I have to get this page to validate?

The page: http://216.36.173.149/cs01.php
The results: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2F216.36.173.149%2Fcs01.php

Please help! I'm stuck! Thanks in advance,

normally it doesn't validate when it is not valid :)

1. obviously it doesn't enjoy the embed tag
2. I tried to validate it on a dif't server (that I like better) and that gives better descriptions, and warnings of potentially wrong things, will get back to you on that validating :)

what doesn't it validate, well it also validates spiders, and here's quite a few all in one: validator (http://www.htmlhelp.com/cgi-bin/validate.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2F216.36.173.149%2Fcs01.php&warnings=yes&input=yes&spider=yes) :)

Well, I need the <embed> tag, or else the Flash won't show up. How can I get it to be valid, but still have the Flash show up?

Is that the only way? Does XHTML strict really not support Flash?

I didn't find that page in particular, but what I read states that the object element will work for you, and doing that and all is posted in the link previous.

OK, I visited that link, and I've modified my source. You can get to the page from the link I posted up top. Now it says I have to add something into the movie, correct?

Huh?

Anyways, what do I add into the Flash, and where? I didn't understand that part of the article.

Your post originally said no wit, so i presumed you meant with, so I had no clue what you meant :D. I haven't read the link to its entirity, so I am not sure.

Note that I called your no wit language foreing, since I didn't know what it meant :D

I'm not too familiar with your language, either. :p

Anyways, I'm still lookin' for help!

[steelersfan88]

you don't get help on the weekends, you get pointless posts like mine :) I've said it before if you are tired, I don't have anytime with everything I do, and I have a business trip soon, so I will be out for a week. So, get used to the lack of help while you can, just messin'
