I am having difficulty with the swfobject script. My confusion is with exactly what i put in between these tags (<div id="FlashContent">You can enter alternate text or graphics within this area.</div>).
I see that is says to enter in alternate text or graphics, but also on another page it states to enter in your flash movie. So I need some help with exactly what to enter in here, and how to enter it in. I am working with dreamweaver, and it wants to embed any flash movie. I do not know another way to just put in a flash movie.
this is a OScommerce site. I am working in the header.php file. I do not know if this will cause any problems either. I have put the (<script language="JavaScript" src="swfobject.js" type="text/javascript"></script>) in the head tag of the index.php page.
You can put whatever content you like within the <div>. What will happen is that if a user does not have flash, or doesn't have the correct version, they will see the contents of the <div> instead. It is a good idea to tell the user they don't have the right version, and supply a download link to the Adobe flash player page etc.
If the user does have flash, the content s of the <div> are overwritten with the actual flash file, so the user sees that instead of the "alternate" contnent.
This is all explained on the main swfobject page, so have a read there if you are still confused.
