Hello,

I am new to the forum and looking for some help, I am trying to embed a flash file into my website I am using html code to embed the file but it does not seem to be working.

This is the website I am trying to embed the file into:
http://makebeats.homestead.com/index.html

and this is the original webpage that is hosting the file:
http://sonicproducer.com/idemo.html

This is the html code that I am using:

<html> 
<body> 
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" 
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/
cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" 
width="700" height="600" id="index_demo"> 
<param name="movie" 
value="http://www.sonicproducer.com/index_demo.swf" /> 
<param name="quality" value="high" /> 
<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /> 
<embed src="http://www.sonicproducer.com/index_demo.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff"
width="700" height="600" 
name="index_demo" align="" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" 
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"> 
</embed> 
</object> 
</body>
</html>

As you can see when I embed the file it doesn't load like on the original page and everything else seems to be operational, How can I fix this?

Thanks in advance and I appreciate all your responses.
-Chris

I hate to ask, but need to, do you have permission to use this? And permission to outright copy the original site?

You have multiple coding errors on that page, including two BODY and HEAD sections. Clean up the code and you should have a better chance of things working.

If you still have problems after your code validates, we'd love to help. Can't do much with what you've got, though.

Cordially, David

Oh man I wasn't aware of that I don't know anything about HTML I use Homesteads WYSIWYG editor sitebuilder to build the webpages so I don't really know how to go and fix the HTML, any advice?

Well, sound, meaningful HTML markup is absolutely necessary if your site is to survive in a world of 10,000 different browsers*. But it really is not hard to learn. Check out the basics of HTML over at dev.Opera.com .

* This according to a recent presentation by Nate Koechley of Yahoo!
