I have converted my .swf file to mp4. It works well. The html wrapper code is still pointing to FLASH references. Is ther s simple code change to support the new mp4 files and eliminate the html referencing  Macromedia  -- <OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/flash2/cabs/swflash.cab#version=4,0,0,0" ID=Boogie2001_Home_Page WIDTH=800 HEIGHT=500>

and 

TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">

*** If I just take these lines out it does not show the mp4 file cottectly. ***

Thank You -- A.J.

      ClayUUID,

           I converted my swf to three formats: mp4, webm, ogv.

      In simple testing on multiple browsers, the movie is not displaying?

      Any thoughts on my issue?

      Thanks,

      A.J. Alfaro

      First, converting to all those different formats is a waste of time because every browser that matters now supports MP4.

       

      Second, I have no idea why it's not working because I have no idea what your code looks like.

       

      Third, why are you manually typing the date at the bottom of every one of your posts?


      sorry about the date ...
