 * I’ve tried embedding flash inside the my index page. I have a folder called flash
   in my root directory with all the .swf files. I put this code into my index.php
   in my theme directory.
 * <div id=”movie”>
    <object type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” data=”flash/master.
   swf” width=”800″ height=”600″> <param name=”movie” value=”flash/master.swf”/>
   </object> </div>
 * I am getting absolutely nothing where my flash gallery is supposed to be, i’m
   guessing i’m missing a plugin, but it seems all the flash plugins are for the
   post sections and they don’t seem to work when I install them.

 * >>flash/master.swf”/<<
 * That’s because the flash image is in your root, and your index page is not. You
   have the wrong path. Use a full path, not a relative one.
