Thanks Henrik, but the trouble here is that classid is deprecated in html5 and it won't validate. . .

The basic use of embed: <embed src="mainmenu/mainopening.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="497" height="329"/> is simplicity itself, but how do you provide alternative content for folk without flash? That is, what method do you recommend? I always used to do this kind of thing: <object data="mainopening.swf" width="497" height="281" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> <param name="movie" value="mainopening.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="high" /> <param name="bgcolor" value="#fff" /> <img src="../sitegraphics/sheltieopening.jpg" alt="Sheltie opening graphic" width="485" height="268" /> </object>Any help gratefully recvd.
