===== Discontinued=====
//object// tag has been [[http://forum.pbase.com/viewtopic.php?p=217260&sid=ccbdbc688332e69b2b55c112069efa25#p217260|disabled by PBase]] and hence you cannot host insert flash links anymore. All the content below will not work anymore and remains here for archiving purposes.

===== Hosting =====
PBase does not allow users to upload a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macromedia_Flash|Flash]] file. So you`ll need to find a web space that can host Flash Files, and then link it to your PBase pages. Howto inspired by [[http://forum.pbase.com/viewtopic.php?p=96479#96479|this post]] by [[http://www.pbase.com/arjunrc/profile|Arjun]].

===== Displaying the Flash movies =====

The basic problem is that while IE uses the <OBJECT> tag to display flash movies, Netscape engine browsers use <EMBED> (EMBED is a non standard XHTML tag). We don't really care if EMBED is non-standard or not - as long as it works. The problem is the PBase suddently started stripping out <EMBED> tags.

Here is the code that you can insert to display a flash movie on both browsers in PBase without the EMBED tag.
(This code is courtesy [[http://www.alistapart.com/articles/flashsatay/|A List Apart]]). This code can be inserted into the User Description area of your PBase galleries.

<code html><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://INSERT_SWF_URL_HERE" width="INSERT_WIDTH_HERE_IN_PIXELS" height="INSERT_HEIGHT_HERE_IN_PIXELS"><param name="movie" value="http://INSERT_SWF_URL_HERE" /></object></code>

**NOTE:** All the code must be in one continuous line and make sure your 'enable HTML' checkbox is checked in the PBase user description area.
