I have downloaded one of your flash "link" buttons, codezwiz23.swf, to add to my
supporters/affiliates list

Unfortunately I cannot get it to work as it only asks for the image url and in the supplied
text file, it states...

<EMBED SRC='http://www.codezwiz.com/images/links/codezwiz23.swf'
wmode='transparent' WIDTH='88' HEIGHT='31'><NOEMBED><a
href='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer/'>Get Flash!</a></NOEMBED></EMBED>


So, obviously this won't work. If you look near the bottom of my frontpage you will see what I mean.

What can I do to get this flash button to show up ?

you have to embed the flash file into your page, you can't treat the .swf file as an image because its not an image. The code in the text file is what you need to be able to make the flash button appear so if you put the following code in your page where you want it to show up, it should work, i've tested that code and it does work.
<EMBED SRC='http://www.codezwiz.com/images/links/codezwiz23.swf'
wmode='transparent' WIDTH='88' HEIGHT='31'><NOEMBED><a
href='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer/'>Get Flash!</a></NOEMBED></EMBED>


the module u may be working with probably only allows links to images so in order for you to put a link to an animated image you would have to make sure the link you would be using points to an image file.

this is what the block is doing
<a href='modules.php?name=Supporters&op=go&site_id=21' target='_blank'><img src='http://www.codezwiz.com/images/links/codezwiz23.swf'' height='31' width='88' title='Codezwiz' border='0'></a>


the above code explains why you are getting a little red x

if you dont have flash player the flash file will appear as a link to download macromedia flash.

any questions just post back icon_smile.gif
