ASP.NET Validation error...

    Just wondering has anyone come across a fix for this...

    I'm using a flash file on my asp.net masterpage and when I tried using the <embed> element, I get a validation error. So I investigated this and apparently the <embed> element is not supported on this platform and I get an error saying "validation: (xhtml 1.0 transitional): Element 'embed' is not supported."

    So I used the <object> element instead, which clears my validation error, only problem is that when I open the webpage using Firefox, my flash file is nowhere to be seen. When I open the page in IE, no problem at all.

    :confused::confused::confused:

    Yeah, I remember this one - it's a bit of pain, but I think there might be hacks for it.

    This might help for a start:

    I'm not sure if it's much help but I was just working on a small Flash animation. This is the code that I used to embed it into a .aspx file:

    [PHP]<object width="320" height="200" >
    <param name="movie" value="flash/animation.swf">
    <embed src="flash/animation.swf" width="320" height="200">
    </embed>
    </object>[/PHP]
