what format should flash be when you put it on your html page? when i uploaded the html version onto my site it wouldnt load... so should I upload it as .swf?

here is what i get when i open the html flash thing

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>ww2beach</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY bgcolor="#000000">
<!-- URL's used in the movie-->
<!-- text used in the movie-->
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
WIDTH="550" HEIGHT="400" id="ww2beach" ALIGN="">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="ww2beach.swf"> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#000000> <EMBED src="ww2beach.swf" quality=high bgcolor=#000000 WIDTH="550" HEIGHT="400" NAME="ww2beach" ALIGN=""

yes you should be uploading it in swf format. however, for it to work correctly you need to have all that code (excluding the HTML and HEAD tags) inside <BODY></BODY> tags

this code is suppost to put the flash file (*.swf) inside the webpage... so you suppost to upload both the page containing that code and the move file itself for this to work.
