Embedding Flash
This is different than the default code that Flash provides. That typically involves the <embed> tag and is not valid XHTML. This doesn’t use that, and is fully valid.
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="your-flash-file.swf"
width="0" height="0">
<param name="movie" value="your-flash-file.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high"/>
</object>
will this work crossbrowser?
This seems very similar to the Flash Satay method from a while back.
I was taught that you should always use swfObject for flash replacement. Isn’t it almost always a better solution?
That’s what I typically use. Although it does require javascript, and theoretically users might have javascript disabled and Flash enabled.
In either case, it’s just a good thing to know there is a valid way to embed flash without any help.
Very true. swfOject is something worth mentioning though.
How do you add a controller.
How could I embed a rotating flash movie as a background in my page? Thanks for the help.
It don’t work in IE.
