I know this may sound stupid and dumb but is there a tag or something
that
you would use instead of an <embed>???? Just asking as it comes up as a
warning when I valiadate a page im coding at the moment.
A method suggested to me by Bert Doorn seems excellent, and is very simple:
<object data="whatever.swf" width="596" height="375"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash">
<param name="movie" value="whatever.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#fff" />
<a href="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0";>
<img src="whatever.gif" alt=" " />
</a>
</object>
The nice thing is that non-flash content is placed on lines 4-6, with or
without the link to download.
AND, it validates!
