Embedding Flash in Template

Permalink July 01, 2010 at 1:44 PM

I'm using the swfobject.js method, when I place the flash element into my template and look to load it hangs on the loading screen at 57%. When I run the flash in a straight html page it loads perfectly, so I'm not sure where my issue is at.

Here is my Head statement.

<head>
   <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
   <?php  Loader::element('header_required'); ?>
   <link href="<?php echo $this->getThemePath()?>/c/style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" />
   <script src="<?php echo $this->getThemePath()?>/js/swfobject.js" type="text/javascript" language="javascript"></script>
</head>

Then in my template I'm trying to load this in:

<?php 
defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die(_("Access Denied."));
$this->inc('includes/header.php'); ?>
   <div id="banner">
         <?php          
            $ah = new Area('banner');
            $ah->display($c);         
         ?>
   </div>
   </div>
   <!--###########################-->
   <!--      Content Layout      -->
   <!--###########################-->
      <div id="content">
         <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="920" height="500">

            <param name="movie" value="<?=$this->url('/')?>nana_flash/main1.swf" />
              <!--[if !IE]>-->
            <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="<?=$this->url('/')?>nana_flash/main1.swf" width="920" height="500">
            <!--<![endif]-->
            <div>
               <p><a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"><img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player" /></a></p>
            </div>
            <!--[if !IE]>-->
            </object>
            <!--<![endif]-->
         </div>
      </div>
<?php $this->inc('includes/footer.php'); ?>

I've attempted to hardcode and it does the same issue for me. The directories for the flash are CHMOD to 755. Any ideas please?
