i cant get my xhtml to validate as strict compliant when i insert the code for my flash file in the file. here is my line. Can someone help out? Im doing this class for an internet programming class and i need it to validate.

```php
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
 codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
 width="200" height="100" id="Untitled-1">
 <param name="movie" value="images/logo2.swf"/> <param name="quality" value="high"/> <param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"/> <embed src="images/logo2.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="200" height="100" name="Untitled-1"
 type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>
</OBJECT>
