More than one swf banner on the same html file

Bottom of Page

    I have a html file which I want to run several banners on.

    I am useing the swfobject.js file with the below code in the html page:

    <body>
    <td rowspan="2">

    <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
    <div id="flashcontent">
    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" width="468" height="60">
    <param name="movie" value="banners_cdweb/italychiltons_468x60.swf" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <embed src="banners_cdweb/italychiltons_468x60.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="468" height="60"></embed>
    </object>
    </div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var so = new SWFObject("banners_cdweb/italychiltons_468x60.swf", "mymovie", "468", "60", "8", "");
    so.write("flashcontent");
    </script>

    </td>
    </body

    With one banner in the body this works fine, however when I had another swf banner a problem occures?

    It repeats showing one banner twice not showing two different banners.

    I'm no expert, however I think that somthing in the swfobject.fs file needs changing.

    Can any one help me with this problem?

    Thanks
    Gary

    your code has a few problems:

    you can't do a 'td' before declaring a 'table' (make sure it's properly terminated)

    <body>
    <td rowspan="2">
    ...
    </td>
    </body>


    should be

    <body>
    <table>
    <td rowspan="2">
    ...
    </td>
    </table>
    </body>


    your swfobject link should be in the 'head' section:

    <head>
    [... title and stuff ...]
    <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
    </head>
    <body>


    you shouldn't have the 'object' or 'embed' tags on your page. the whole point of swfobject is to delete them and let swfobject dynamically create them for you.


    <div id="flashcontent"></div>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var so = new SWFObject("banners_cdweb/italychiltons_468x60.swf", "mymovie", "468", "60", "8", "");
    so.write("flashcontent");
    </script>


    if you want to use more than one swf on a page with SWFObject, you can read up on it in the FAQ:

    <
    head>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
    </head>

    <body>
    <table>

    <td rowspan="2">
    <div id="swfOne"><script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script></div>
    <div id="flashcontent"><script type="text/javascript">var so = new SWFObject("banners_cdweb/italychiltons_468x60.swf", "myonemovie", "468", "60", "8", "");so.write("flashcontent");</script></div></td>

    <td rowspan="2">

    please follow the examples more closely... you've added code that shouldn't be there and haven't edited parts that need editing.

    look at your so.writes
    look at your <div id="">... you've added <div id="flashcontent"> twice... neither of them should be there if you're following the example(s).
    swfobject.js should only be linked once in the document, in the head

    you're almost there... :)

    you still need a little clean-up.

    again, the swfobject.js file should ONLY be in the head of your document. it's also a good idea to keep the swfobject code out of the target divs.

    this

    <div id="swfOne">
    <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var soOne = new SWFObject ("banners_cdweb/italychiltons_468x60.swf", "myOnemovie", "468", "60", "8", "");
    soOne.write("swfOne");
    </script>
    </div>


    should be this

    <div id="swfOne"></div>

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var soOne = new SWFObject ("banners_cdweb/italychiltons_468x60.swf", "myOnemovie", "468", "60", "8", "");
    soOne.write("swfOne");
    </script>


    same goes for the second one.
