I just finished up with the News Ticker tut  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/newsticker.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/newsticker.htm)

I have my .swf ready and edited the news.xml. I don’t know where to go from here. Iam really new to flash and run a phpnuke site. I wanted to use this ticker on the front page center, but when I edit and use the html editor it doesn’t show the .swf or anything. =/

“\<object classid=“clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000” codebase=“[http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0](http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0)” width=“550” height=“100” id=“hd1” align=“middle”\>

\<embed src=“fokticker1.swf” quality=“high” bgcolor="#ffffff" width=“550” height=“100” name=“fokticker1” align=“middle” allowScriptAccess=“sameDomain” type=“application/x-shockwave-flash” pluginspage=“[http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer](http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer)” /\>"

I used the above code with no luck.

Asides from that first problem, how do I get the .swf to read from the .xml?

Any help is greatly appreciated
