 * I want run some flash objects as header for my blog. But the code doesn’t seem
   to work on the blog. Is there a special way I have to embed flash on the blog?

 * Kimli Flash Embed plugin will do the job and it also validates.

 * That’s cool. Thanks LenK. But I wondering if I could do it with simply adding
   the code to the page. To the header and link it to the files stored on my server.
   I would find that easier. Is there a way?

 * That’s exactly the way you use the plugin. Once activated you simply add this
   to your page,
 * `[kml_flashembed movie="filename.swf" height="xx" width="xx" /]`
 * As I said, this is also valid code.

 * Thanks LenK.
 * I also noticed one more thing, if I use the simplest of html codes on the page,
   for example,
 * `<img src="http:..." />` this is just an image take. I placed it at the top in
   the header.php page.
 * But running the page in the browser shows that wordpress completely ignores the
   code.
 * What I really want to know is how I can make this type of code to work?

 * Because you see, if I can make my code work like that there would be no need 
   for me to install any plugins which I don’t want to do in the first place. 🙂

 * Hi
 * I’ve tried using Kimli flash install to add a flash header and it’s just not 
   working for me. I’ve installed Kimli v 1.4, and have checked that it’s activated
   in my plugin area. I’ve put the following code in my header.php:
 * [kml_flashembed movie=”header_temp.swf” height=”150″ width=”970″ /]
 * I’ve tried both a relative and an absolute path, and the flash file is definitely
   published to the server – but nothing shows up on the wordpress blog. It’s driving
   me crazy – anyone have any suggestions? Is there a step I might have missed?
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated…
 * Cheers

 * You have used the [kml] in the header where it would be parsed as html, right(
   not in the <head> tag)?
 * Try using
    [kml_flashembed movie=”header_temp.swf” base=”[http://www.your.path/to/swffile/&#8221](http://www.your.path/to/swffile/&#8221);
   height=”150″ width=”970″ /]
