flash not showing up!

help please.

[electricocean]

I have this flash sidebar with links and a counter on it so people can browse around. Now it wont show!

info:

1)for some reason the counter did not work in an embed but worked in an iframe.

2)it is placed in javascript to test IE mac. (if is ie mac do something, else print the flash sidebar

What's wrong?

thanks,
electricocean

anybody? I think it might be that javascipt testing IE mac is messed up-- it doesn't even work in IE mac.

Hi electricocean,

Can you post a little of your code (the relevant bits with links taken out! ;)) and that may help us!

^^^ What he said^^^

To place a .swf is a fairly easy process and I do not see where your problem may be... you have to, <object> and <embed> to cover browsers..

And the javascript you are using? because? why?

hi, thanks for the replies.

heres me code:

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
if (navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer" && navigator.appVersion.indexOf("Mac")!= -1){
document.write('<p align="top"><table bgcolor="#666666" width="138.5" height="455"><tr><td>');
document.write('\(To get better results, try using a different web browser.\)<br><br>')
document.write('<p align="center"><font size="6">Dkicks <br>Jokes</font></p>');
document.write('<a href="index.php?pageid=1">news</a><br>' 0.

+'<a href="index.php?pageid=2">jokes</a><br>'
+'<a href="index.php?pageid=3">movies</a><br>'
+'<a href="index.php?pageid=4">bio</a><br>'
+'<a href="index.php?pageid=5">links</a><br>'
+'<a href="index.php?pageid=6">add a joke!</a>');
document.write('</td></tr></table></p>');
}

else {
document.write('<iframe name="sidebar" src="flash/sidebar.swf" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" width="138.5" height="454" bgcolor="#000000">Your browser does not support inline frames or is currently configured not to display inline frames.</iframe>') ;
}
-->
</script>
