HI People

I am trying to use the flashobject.js for the obvious reason - I dont want to see the active x controls within my flash animation.

It works fine in all instances except for when loading an external movie clip into the existing MC.

I have tried using the allow ScriptAccess", always to see if that helps but no joy.

Please if anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

Cheers - [http://www.blacklightmedia.co.uk](http://www.blacklightmedia.co.uk)

Below is an exmple of my script

\<script type=“text/javascript”\>  
var fo = new FlashObject(“flash/header.swf”, “name”, “860”, “100”, “8”, “#FFFFFF”);  
fo.addParam(“allowScriptAccess”, “sameDomain”);  
fo.addParam(“quality”, “high”);  
fo.addParam(“scale”, “noscale”);  
fo.addParam(“loop”, “false”);  
fo.write(“flash1”);  
\</script\>

Have you included a \<div\> to hold the flashobject “flash1”?

\<div id=“flash1”\>  
Put alternate text or a link to the Flash Player download here  
\</div\>

Alternatively, go to this link and it will create all of the code for you:
