Here's something straight out of an HTML editor:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#3,0,0,0" width="32" height="32">
<param name="src" value="flash-file.swf">
<embed src="flash-file.swf" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="32" height="32">
</embed>
</object>

Just fill out the things you need to fill out, and you're done. :)

I think mine would work and that is why you don't use any editors that is all non sense except maybe the download player if not installed

Yours would work, but you'd have to add width and height demensions, maybe background color, etc. It's not nonsense, it's just more customizable if you need more options. :)

No it is nonsense to me that looks like letters but when I write html myself it is pretty and understandable

HTML wasn't meant to be pretty and understandable. :p

Think of a browser as a guy and html or whatever type of source you use as a girl.
You want the pretty girl, not the ugly fat one.

That was a really bad metaphor. :p

Here's a reprimand: Looks don't matter, it's what's on the inside that counts. ;)

Ok you don't get the point and it is infuriating. YOU DO NOT USE HTML EDITORS! The only way to make anything good for the web is in Notepad or similar such things.

They're not bad. You don't even have to use them and their options, you can just write your own scratch HTML and let the editor help you on the way. Sure, Notepad is the more advanced way to go, but an editor can be just as good used properly.

We were talking about HTML, not other scripting languages.

You guys have confused TRUNKS enough now I think. Maybe he will try both and see what works best for him.

I already have. I prefer the HTML editor, but that's just my opinion.

Let's settle it on that: It's up to the person to decide whether an editor or scratch is better for him/her.

Problem solved. Woohoo! :p :D
