I am creating a web site and when I test the pages in Netscape, Opera and Firefox the flash isn't coming up.

Is there some code I need to put in so the flash can be seen in all browers.

Thanks!

what html code did you use?
i would guess you need to use BOTH the object and embed tags to make it work.
perhaps you may find this thread useful:

Thanks. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that example is a different problem to mine. They are imbedding windows media player, mine is flash. My code is in html:

<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="700" height="101" title="Banner">
<param name="movie" value="gfx/banner.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<embed src="gfx/banner.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="700" height="101"></embed>
</object>

I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

media player/flash player - same idea - both embedded objects!
your code looks correct.
i would try updating or reinstalling the flash plugin.

Sorry, I only checked it in Opera. The flash is working in explorer and Opera but it's still not working in Netscape or Firefox. Do you still think it's something to do with my computer?

Thanks
