Flash content in header image
 

As the subject says, is there an easy way to include flash in the header content instead of images?

Thanks!

Turn the header image off at Atahualpa Theme Options -> Header -> Configure Header area and edit header.php

<!-- Header -->
<td id="header" colspan="<?php echo $cols; ?>">
Your code here -->
<?php bfa_header_config($bfa_ata['configure_header']); ?>
Or, Your code here -->
</td>
<!-- / Header -->

Something is amiss...I've tried this suggestion as well the others posted to get flash content to load before the default header so it loads first on the page. Unfortunately I can't get it to work. Maybe I've just been looking at the code too long today? Hopefully it's just some simple error. Please let me know and thank you.

AC_RunActiveContent.js is in the root directory and sfw is in the images folder
header image is turned off in dashboard
Here's the code in the header.php.

<!-- Header -->
<td id="header" colspan="<?php echo $cols; ?>">

<!-- Begin code for flash insertion for flash before header -->
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
AC_FL_RunContent( "codebase","http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0","width","960","heigh t","180","src","/thesage/wp-content/themes/Vz_atahualpa332/images/SampleHead1","quality","high","pluginspage","http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash","movi e","/thesage/wp-content/themes/Vz_atahualpa332/images/SampleHead1" ); //end AC code

<!-- / Header -->

Looks like the .swf ending is missing two times in your code, you have

SampleHead1

instead of

SampleHead1.swf

I'm very new here and to developing but tried to follow above. Here would be my code: <!-- Begin code for flash insertion for flash before header -->
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
AC_FL_RunContent( "codebase","http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,2,54","width","784","heig ht","308","src","/wordpress/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/banner.swf","quality","high","pluginspage","http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash","movi e","/wordpress/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/banner.swf" ); //end AC code
</script><noscript><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,2,54" width="784" height="308">

</object></noscript>
<!-- / code for flash insertion -->

I think I have most correct but don't know what the classid is, what it applies to, and don't know where to find it. Could you help please.
Thank You.

I'm on 3.6.4 and I can't see to add flash to my header. Are the step different in the latest version?
