hey guys, I am trying to place an .swf file into html for my ebay ad, but it doesn’t show up. Is there a code I could use to place the .swf?  
the code for pictures \<img src=“picturelink.jpg”\> works.  
Thanks. If the question is studpid please don’t flame me. I searched prior to posting this but did not get a satisfactory answer

Well what code are you using?

You could use

```auto

<embed src="pathtoswf.swf" height="" width=""></embed>

```

Did something chage, or a \<swf\> tag was added ? 😛 Use \<embed\>, or better yet, edit the \*.fla file in Macromedia and hit F12. It will generate a htlm code for you.
