Flash Plugin for widgets??

    I am trying to add a small flash.swf to a widget, but can’t get it to work. The swf is hosted on my server.
    I tried linking to the .swf file, and creating a html, so it is clickable. I just can’t get it.
    Do I need to use a text widget, and with what code?
    How about a php widget, and with what code.
    I want it to be “clickable”
    All the plugins I have found allow posting to the body, but I need posting to the widget.
    Thanks

    i think you can use just text widget but there place html code responsible for showing the flash animation.

    correct code you have for example here

    (don’t place opening and closing tags of <html> and <body>)

    i am not sure but rather not. ‘being clickable’ must be defined inside of flash animation

    I was able to make a small area above and below the flash object (.swf) in the widget ‘clickable’ by inserting this line:

    <a href="http://mysite.com/"target="_top"> title="<span class="blck">Click Here</span>">

    Just above and just below the `<object>’ code
    I added the text ‘click here’ so people would hopefully know they have to click there, and not the image.
    It’s not perfect, but works.

    Does anyone know of a better way? (i.e. get the whole object to be clickable)?
