Also a point that is often overlooked is that, if it does not matter in your specific case whether or not the Flash file is streamed (i.e. starts playing as soon as it has partially downloaded rather than waiting until it has fully downloaded), you can simply use: <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="123" height="456"> <param name="movie" value="foo.swf"> ... alternative non-flash content ... </object> This is valid and works in all browsers that I am aware of.
