Hi guys,

A little help if you could. I have added a flash logo (some snowflakes for the festive season) and it shows fine in IE but nothing in firefox.

Here is the code including a couple of lines from above and below the code, im using the RavenIce theme.

Code:

echo '<div id="header_wrap">


  <div id="header">


    <div id="head_content">


      <a href="', $nukeurl, '" title="', $sitename, ' - ', $slogan, '"><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="800" height="150">


  <param name="movie" value="themes/RavenIce/images/logo.swf" />


  <param name="quality" value="high" />


  <param name="wmode" value="transparent">


     <embed src="logo.swf"


      quality="high"


      type="application/x-shockwave-flash"


      WMODE="transparent"


      width="800"


      height="150"


      pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />


</object></a>


    </div>';


   if ($banners) {


      echo '<div id="head_ad">';


      echo ads(1);


      echo '</div>';


   };

Also the shortcuts along the top are placed differently in both browsers aswell?

Looks like your A HREF tag is wrong, I'm pretty sure it shouldn't have a double quote followed by a single quote.

So

Code:

<a href="', $nukeurl, '" title="', $sitename, ' - ', $slogan, '"

should read

Code:

<a href=", $nukeurl, " title=", $sitename,  - , $slogan, "

?

This code is taken striaght form the RavenIce theme

Code:

<div id="head_content">


      <a href="', $nukeurl, '" title="', $sitename, ' - ', $slogan, '"><img src="themes/RavenIce/images/logo.gif" alt="', $sitename, ' - ', $slogan, '" border="0" /></a>


    </div>'

This is my first time with flash so please be kind lol, ive tried searching but not found an answer.

Cheers guys

Sorry, that code is correct I didn't spot it until now that it is using a comma to concatonate the line.
Pretty sure though that you would want to put your flash code after the closing < /a> tag.
Also you might want to check the CSS file for the head_content DIV value. You flash file is given a width of 800 pixels which may be wider than the style allows and that would definitely give you weird appearence behaviour.
