Question

i’m planning to use a .swf file as a header. this won’t work.

<img src="exactheader.swf" width="650" height="140" />

can you tell me how?

Answer 1

You should use <embed> tag to embed flash files to an html page :

<object width="650" height="140">
  <param name="movie" value="exactheader.swf">
  <embed src="exactheader.swf" width="650" height="140"> </embed>
</object>

EDIT : As Russ pointed, I just found the resource why we should use both object and embed tags here.

In the code above there is both an
tag and an <object> tag. This
is because the tag is
recognized by Internet Explorer, and
Netscape recognizes the <embed> tag
and ignores the <object> tag.
