Hi,
I am working on a Penny Auction script and would like to display flash on the page. I have tried and tried but can not seem to do it. I would like to display it as as the header, just above the logo div, but right now I am trying to do it under the logo to see if it would work. Nothing I do works. Here is my code:

echo $html->meta('description', $meta_description);
endif;

The code is just before the maincontent div. I am not sure why it is not displaying the flash! Any help here would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank You!

Please post a link to the page on your site that contains the problematic script so we can check it out.

That is the link. Right now I just have a basic header up. But where it is at is where I would like the flash displayed.

Can you replace the logo with the flash and then provide a link?

I have tried uploading a movie now to a different area so you can see what is happening. If you go to my website, http://www.bidfireworks.com , and sroll to the bottom the flash should be just under the image of a purse. It is using a place, and is there, but you cant see it and when you right click it it says, "Movie Not Loaded"

Here is the code for my entire page and I am using cakePHP as the development framework.


<script src="http://www.custompowerdesigns.com/Scripts/swfobject_modified.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<div class="module clearfix">
<?php echo $html->image('banner-winner.jpg', array('border' => '0', 'alt' => 'Winner', 'title' => 'Winner')); ?>
</div>
<div class="module clearfix">
<?php echo $html->image('banner-purses.jpg', array('border' => '0', 'alt' => 'Purses Auction', 'title' => 'Purses Auction')); ?>
</div>
<div class="module clearfix">
<div id=”cakeflash_soundtracker”> </div>
<script type=”text/javascript”>

var so = new SWFObject(”http://cakeflash.com/swf/cakeflash_soundtracker.swf”, “cakeflash_soundtrackerMC”, “160?, “25?, “6?);

so.addParam(”wmode”, “transparent”);

so.addParam(”scale”, “exactfit”);

so.addParam(”allowscriptaccess”, “samedomain”);

so.addVariable(”mp3path”, “http://rpitmedia.com/mp3/ParisFashionWeek10_10_2006.mp3?);

so.addVariable(”title”, “Paris Fashion Show”);

so.write(”cakeflash_soundtracker”);

</script>

</div>

It seems this is solved?

Sorry, yes it was solved. I have been working on it so much that I forgot to let you know that this was solved. The problem was that I did not have the Flash file in the webroot directory. Simple problem that I could just not figure out!
