[WSG] embedding flash in xhtml

[robert e. lee]

I have a problem with my xhtml page which has a flash movie. When validating 
I have found a bit of an anomoly. I have used <object> etc to embed it on 
the page and it will validate as xhtml 1.0 strict. Then I found that it does 
not display the flash movie in Netscape?! Very odd.

So I put the <embed> tags back in and sure as anything it displays correctly 
in netscape, but of course doesn't validate as xhtml at all. Embed is not 
valid xhtml.

My question is "doesn't Netscape support putting flash files into pages?". 
It is very strange. I know there must be a cure for my problem...

If anyone could advise me I would be grateful as I have sold the site 
directly on the standards compliancy issue.
