Adding a Flash header.
I am trying to add a flash movie to the header.
Can easily add an image, but not object or java - driving me nuts. Have tried various approaches without success. Using site builder and adding the object to the HeadAd:
it does not even show the code, i.e., after saving and looking at source, it is not even displayed although the Edit HeaderAd shows that the code is there.
If I add it as a javascript:
it ends up being displayed in the source, but it is not executed. Interetingly enough, using the javascript, I do get a notice saying that "Flash Header" will be displayed when saved (although it is not), something that does not happen with just the object.
Have even tried hard coding it into the header template (both ways) and neither displays the flash. I get a blank area where it belongs (by all methods), but no display. It is NOT a question of the swf file not loading properly as right clicking on the blank area does not identify the area as flash.
Any ideas? Vbb 3.x was so much easier...
Thanx
