Ever tried to get .SWFs to display on a netscape browser and be able to validate your HTML/XHTML?


I've been searching for a god-damn solution for a while,
but all I get is "EMBED," which is depreciated!

OBJECT isn't "supposed" to work....


But here's a hack to get it to display in IE and NETSCAPE,
(I call it a hack because in IE it doesn't "stream").



{object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="my_movie.swf"
width="50" height="50"}
{param name="movie" value='my_movie.swf" /}
{/object}

The key attributes there are "DATA" and "PARAM".
Data for the NETSCAPE browsers.


NOTE: Replace the curly braces with less then/ greater thens.
If you post here with less/greater + object between the CODE tags,
it'll cause half of your post to be outside the bracket.



And PARAM for IE4+ Browsers.


I was fucking around with the code in one last desperate attempt to get it working.
When I think I figured it out.

Ha, fuck them!

You can see this in action at my website http://www.gallatinwebdesign.com.


Hopefully this is usefull to the web-developers in here.
