Has anyone successfully used FLASH in their header?

I've seen a couple of posts on this, but none that appear to have been solved so I hope you guys can help.

What I am attempting to do is embed a flash movie in the header portion of my site, replacing the default XOOPS logo as well as the area used by the banners.

After reading a couple of other posts here, this is the code I am using, in place of the call for the logo in my theme.html page:

-----begin code snippet-----








-----end code snippet-----

So, any thoughts? And while I'm here, thanks so much for all the time and effort that has gone into developing Xoops. I am thrilled to have found it and hope to be able to contribute something back to this great community very soon!

by all means that should work.. however!!

-----begin code snippet-----








-----end code snippet-----

if i'm not mistaken, should these be pointing to the same file?

ie the code from mine is this, it was a hotbox in a custom block, but works fine as a header with changes to the width etc..





27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="140" height="100">


note my param value and the ember are the same file.. i dunno if this is relevant..

Thanks so much! With a couple of minor modifications based on m0nty's post, here's what I ended up with and it's loading perfectly now:

I hope this helps someone else as well!

I didn't have to change anything else... only what's posted above and it's working fine now.
