Try installing it again in that case ..

you can basically use any editor to create the file.

NotePad alone should work fine.

NOTE: Some editors by default assign an extension to the file. You can just rename the file to just .htaccess once you have created it, in such cases.

No .htaccess files are provided with the source.

If you turn on permalinks in WP, then a .htaccess write is performed if it can be done (permissions are set for a write), else it provides the code for you to put into your .htaccess file.

In your header.php ..

Find these 2 lines:

#header { margin: 0 !important; margin: 0 0 0 1px; padding: 1px; height: 198px; width: 758px; }
#headerimg { margin: 7px 9px 0; height: 192px; width: 740px; }

and comment them out. its probably just a problem of the width and alignment.

Also if you can reduce the size of the flash to 740px, yours is 760 now, that’s what size of the header area is in the default theme.

One thing i forgot to mention ??

You need to give the absolute URL for the flash movie in these places:

<param name="movie" value="top_navigation.swf" />
<embed src="top_navigation.swf" quality="high" …

Because with just filename, wp is looking at a different folder probably than where the file itself is located

Ok, here’s the code from a default theme header.php with your flash file incorporated into it.

In all probability just sticking that into your header.php should work fine, otherwise just copy paste the part that is different from your header.php and that should work.

You can get the code here: https://pastebin.com/482608

If something is the problem post back and we cna work it out.

Try deactivating all the plugins and see what that does.

How did you get the flash object code? Did you create the flash yourself? If you did, then you probably have an option to get the HTML code for it through your program.

Otherwise let me know and I will find an example and show you how to do it.

You can’t really just replace the file name to show the flash file.

You actually need the whole of the <object> stuff there in your header part of the theme.

Glad to be of help ??

Try adding this to the code.

Change this:

<div id="masthead"> <!--div masthead starts-->

to:

<div id="masthead" onclick="location.href='www.redshiftradio.com';" style="cursor: pointer;"> <!--div masthead starts-->

I had that problem too .. refresh the page a couple of times perhaps, that should take care of that ..

Can you please post the link to the website with the flash code inserted in the header.php?

Your second post is part of the problem.

The same thing happened to someone yesterday, and it was for the same reason.

A div container needs to have an end tag, and something like this does not work <div something here />, it has to have an end tag.

And because of this your tags are all messed up, you should do something about that post.

For example take a look at these two posts:

https://www.theurbangrindblog.com/2005/12/27/wearable-lawn-furniture/

You will see that the page doesn’t even finish.

Whereas this one works fine:

If you still have problems after correcting your second post, please post back and I will try see what else the problem is.

Sorry my bad ..

Its your index.php file.

And here’s the exact code from it:

<div id="masthead"> <!--div masthead starts-->
<h1 id="header"><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>
<div class="slogan"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></div>
</div> <!--div masthead ends-->

Change it to:

<div id="masthead"> <!--div masthead starts-->
<!--<h1 id="header"><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>-->
<div class="slogan"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></div>
</div> <!--div masthead ends-->
