Hi, how exactly do you insert a flash "movie" into your web page using HTML, or javascript? <java></java>?

<java></java>?

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/
swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="600" height="400">
<param name="movie" value="yourmovie.swf">
<param name=quality value=high>
<embed src="http://www.yoursite.com/yourmovie.swf" quality=high
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi
?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="600" height="400"></embed>
</object>

Java applets also use the combined <object> and <embed> tags. <object> is for IE, <embed> is for everything else.

actually, when you publish your flash movie (if you are the creator publishing it) it give you the Publish settings window with a check box to make an html file, where it automatically gives you the html code, which you can just copy and past to where you want it

I actually prefer this method as well.. especially if you are publishing a custom movie. 600 X 400 is not an all to common size, and with the details Flash can offer (what with vector layering etc) making a standard movie at 6X4 is almost un heard of.

Just publish, and then alter the .html as needed to fit your site.
