flash objects in asp.net ??

[fredda054]

Hi everybody !
I have a problem with a Flash movie. I just want to put an existing
..swf-file into my aspx web form. I've added the "Shockwave Flash
object" COM component to the toolbox list, (the web forms tab), and I
drag it from the toolbox menu and drop it the table cell where I want
it displayed.

I then just change the auto generated code to set the source to my
..swf-file. <PARAM NAME="Movie" VALUE="images/myFlashMovie.swf">

This just wont work ! There's a empty white square on the page where
the flash movie should be, and the page wont finish loading.

I guess I must be missing something...?!
Could really use some help on this, since it's pretty urgent...
Thanks a lot !

You might want to see if the ASP.net component here will help you configure
that:

A swf is an embedded object in an HTML document. Of course, by that I mean
that some HTML (text) is in the document that makes a separate request for
the swf and "embeds" it in the HTML document where you want it to be.
Therefore, "to put an existing swf file into my aspx web form" you just add
the HTML tag to the document. No need to add any COM components to your
toolbox list or anything of that nature.
