Hi all,

I went through all the steps in the explanation, but couldn't figure out why
it's not showing, here is the link:

http://asianadventures.org/gallery2/main.php

It's a flash file, by the way. Nothing fancy, just text.

I'd appreciate some suggestions, Thanks.

<a href="http://asianadventures.org"><img src="themes/matrix/images/asianadventure_gallerylogo.fla" width="288.9" height="34" alt=""/></a>

Not how to embed flash.
asianadventure_gallerylogo.fla is not a rendered flash animation, its the source file.
You first need to publish your fla to a swf, when you do that "publish" will also create a sample html file with the proper embed code.

I thought that could be it! How do I convert it?

Thanks.

What application are you using to edit the fla? It should be able to publish it.

A flash animation is not an image.

try:

<embed width="288" height="43" align="middle" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"

type="application/x-shockwave-flash" name="logo" wmode="transparent" quality="high"

src="themes/matrix/images/asianadventure_gallerylogo.swf"></embed>

I decided to bypass this and use an existing jpg file (easier this way) that I used throughout my site.

I finally linked it to my site, check it out: http://asianadventures.org

I appreciate your help anyway -Thanks.
