i have a flash animation image and i uploaded it onto my server in images/misc.

i then copied the link as normal and pasted it in the text box for Tital Image under image paths.

any reason why this wouldnt work?

or is there another method for flash animation or does it need to be a certain file type.

the file type is : flashv3.swf

thank you but im getting an error.

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/fitnessf/public_html/Forums/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(3537) : eval()'d code on line 69

i guess thats in my image code.

i went to my image and copied the file then pasted it right where you have the green text.

oh hold on i might see the problem.

nope i get the same error message.

im pasting my file code right in place of the green text right.

ok im an idiot.

i was putting the code in there. i put the image link and it took it but i am not getting the image in the header.

i will continue working on it. but i may break the computer first, lol.

Try loading the flash without it being on the forum and see if it works. If not theres the problem. If it does, let me know.

<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" width=900 height=181" src="http://www.fitnessandbeyond.net/Forums/images/misc/fitness_flashv3.swf" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" quality="high"

thanks to everyone for helping.

i eventually read on a site about flash html and used something that worked. it explained that it is the basic minumum to make it work though and that more code might be needed for certain browsers.

but its working and all members say its working. i used this code to get it to work. i guess theres more than one way to skin a cat, although i never could get the code in Yarub's post to work, i had already tried the second set of variables and no luck earlier.

again thanks everyone for helping.
