All you have to do is embed the file into your index.html page. If you’re using Dreamweaver, then you use the icon along the toolbar to do it.

if you put this code

\< param name=movie value=“flash/questions.swf” \>  
\< param name=quality value=high \>  
\< embed src=“flash/questions.swf” quality=high pluginspage=“[http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1\_Prod\_Version=ShockwaveFlash](http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash)” type=“application/x-shockwave-flash” \>  
\< /embed \>

it should work for you

replace “flash/questions.swf” with the directory and file name of the swf file you are trying to load.

(make sure to take out the spaces within the \< and \>

Yikes, I’ve never used FrontPage. Kirupa is probably the guy who knows all about that. 🙂

But I’ve attached a little text file that contains the embed code for a Flash object. All you’d need to do is open up a code view and cut and paste, then change the name of the swf. Hope that helps.
