Hi

Thanks for the help. Unfortunately, I still can't get the Flash header to
load. As per your instructions this is what I did:

<div id="header"> 
      <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.ca
b#version=6,0,29,0" width="690" height="115"> <param name="movie"
value="themes/blix/banner.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="Transparent" /> <param name="menu" value="false"
/> <param name="scale" value="noscale" /> <embed
src="themes/blix/banner.swf" quality="high"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="690" height="115"
wmode="Transparent" menu="false" scale="noscale"></embed> </object>
  </div>

The error log did not indicate anything. I would be grateful for any other
tips.

Thanks

CAL

Hello,

You most likely need to give it the full path, something like
themes/blix/banner.swf so that it will load.

If that fails check your error log on your server and it will tell you
want it is trying to load.
