why would you not recommend it? any specific reason?
here is what i did:
in the main css add the following:
Code:
.flashhead {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
height: 160px;
background-color:#660000;
}
then in your head.tpl file add this div tag:
Code:
<div class="flashhead">
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
WIDTH=1400 HEIGHT=160>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="{$ImagesDir}/your flash file">
<PARAM NAME=menu VALUE=false>
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=transparent>
<PARAM NAME=scale VALUE=noscale>
<EMBED src={$ImagesDir}/your flash file menu=false quality=high wmode=transparent scale=noscale WIDTH=1400 HEIGHT=160 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
</div>
works for me
