Thread: Custom Html Block - embed flash

Hi

In version 6.01

Rather than using the Promo block I would like to use the custom html box in basic settings to display my flash logos etc

Does anyone know how to embed flash in it using the tinymce editor

The code I have tried and does not work is:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
width="740" height="203" id="tester" align="">
<param name=movie value="tester.swf"><param name=quality value=high>
<embed src="/images/tester.swf" quality=high width="740" height="203" name="tester" align=""
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">
</embed></object>

All I get on the home page is what you see above

Any advice please on how to do it or can it simply not be done?

Many thanks

Wendy

Hi Windy, I was looking for the same thing when I found your post. 1 mixed your code with mine and got it to work. So thank you and here is my code if you still need it

<script type="text/javascript" src="/admin/embed.js"></script> <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" id="test" width="960" height="200"><param name="id" value="test" /><param name="width" value="960" /><param name="height" value="200" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="src" value="http://flipthatdate.com/images/test.swf" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" id="test" width="960" height="200" quality="high" src="http://flipthatdate.com/images/test.swf"></embed></object>
