    So. I have perfectly replaced my header image with a Flash object. But for IE, its displaying the ‘click to activate and use control’ tooltip. I know how to remove this on a regular HTML website, but how do implement the same javascript technique into wordpress?

    This is what I am currently attempting and its not doing anything:

    For my header.php:
    object
    classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
    codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,22,0"
    id="slideshow"
    width="760" height="189"
    >
    <param name="movie" value="slideshow.swf">
    <param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF">
    <param name="quality" value="high">
    <param name="menu" value="false">
    <param name="devicefont" value="true">
    <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
    <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="samedomain">
    <embed
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
    name="slideshow"
    width="760" height="189"
    src="slideshow.swf"
    bgcolor="#FFFFFF"
    quality="high"
    menu="false"
    wmode="transparent"
    swliveconnect="true"
    allowscriptaccess="samedomain"
    >
    <noembed>
    </noembed>
    </embed>
    </object>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="ieupdate.js"></script>

    If someone can point me to a correct thread or a solution I would appreciate it.

    Thanks.

    Hi!

    You are using a normal OBJECT and EMBED.
    Instead you should put something like this:


    <div id="flashcontent">
    This text is replaced by the Flash movie.
    </div>

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var so = new SWFObject("movie.swf", "mymovie", "200", "100", "7", "#336699");
    so.write("flashcontent");
    </script>

    and put a link to Flash object script in head of your document:


    <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>

    Thanks AlainS for your reply. I will continue to work on it. I will post again if I continue to have trouble.

    Take care.
