Hey all ??

Sorry to bother you guys with all my questions, but how would I add a flash swf in the header? I don’t want anything else up there, just the Flash swf banner which is like 700px wide by 165 high. Would I do it in css or the header.php? Either way what is the coding that I’m supposed to put in?

Thanks ??

#header { background: url(“https://www.yourdomain.com/blog/images/header.swf”) no-repeat bottom center; }

hey ??

Thanks for the advice but that didn’t really work ?? After a couple cups of coffee this morning I rememberd that .swf files are read as objects. So I went into the header.php file replaced the bottom part…

this:
<body>
<div id=”rap”>
<h1 id=”header”>“><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></h1>
<div id=”content”>
<!– end header –>

with this:
<body>
<div id=”rap”>
<object classid=”clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000″ codebase=”https://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0″ width=”700″ height=”132″>
<param name=”movie” value=”https://missm.djcrackman.net/wp-content/themes/classic/snow.swf”>
<param name=quality value=high>
<embed src=”https://missm.djcrackman.net/wp-content/themes/classic/snow.swf” quality=high pluginspage=”https://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”700″ height=”132″></embed>
</object>
<div id=”content”>
<!– end header –>

It’s basically just adding the .swf into a normal HTML page, except the file ends in .php instead of .htm… Funny I didn’t think of it before ??

But thank you!

Oh one more thing… I had to make sure my padding was the height of the swf (132 px). Well half actually ??

#header {
background: #000;
margin: 0;
padding: 0px 0px 66px 0px;
}

I have read through all the posts I could find on inserting flash into my blog header. The flash only shows up as a white box. Does anyone know how to get flash to work a wordpress weblog?

jaredkc, i did what ILostMyDream said (btw, thanks for the great help, pal) and it works. The only thing u need to do in order to avoid the white box is to write the absolut path for the file, not only the usual images/file.swf path.

It will be something like this: https://www.yourwebsite/wordpress/wp-content/themes/urthemename/images/file.swf

Hey there… Just trying to put my swf file into my WP header and having problems. I see to put the object code within the actual header page — which I did. And I also put the full URL to the flash sorce as the person above mentioned but I still cannot get my flash to work. I just get a big white spot where the flash should be.

What am I doing wrong? ??
