 * Hi Im building a theme from scratch. As part of the WP website I have a flash
   file (not in the post section or header) just as part of the site.
 * I installed the swf file into the site using Dreamweaver.
 * When I preview the template it works ok except the swf file does not show and
   there is an error message saying i need the latest version of Flash Player.
 * I know this is not the problem because I have the latest version of flash player
   AND the file works fine when i preview it in a browser in an html file that’s
   not a WP theme.
 * Unfortunatley i’m working on a local server so i don’t have a link.
    ive seen
   similar posts but no solutions. An help would be much appreciated!
