areeb Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Hello all ...I have a website which is basically HTML 4.0.1.I have a Shockwave Flash Navigation Menu named menu.swf , and I am using the following Code to add to the site ....This Code was actually created by Macromedia Dreamweaver ... <object classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' codebase='http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0' width='170' height='368'> <param name='movie' value='menu.swf'> <param name='quality' value='high'> <embed src='menu.swf' quality='high' pluginspage='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' width='170' height='368'></embed> </object> The code works fine in the browser, but when I validate it using W3's Validator, it says Validation failed as there is no Tag named Embed ....Will my code work without Embed tag :)What should I do ...is there any error in my Coding ??
