Hey guys. I want to use a flash button in place of the default add to cart button. I'm wondering how to integrate the code with the button.tpl code to make it work properly and actually add the product to the customers cart. Here is the code for the flash button.

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0" width="105" height="33">
          <param name="movie" value="button5.swf" />
          <param name="quality" value="high" />
          <embed src="button5.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="105" height="33" ></embed>
        </object>

And here is the code for button.tpl

{* MAKE SURE YOU HAVE NO REDUNDANT CARRIAGE RETURNS IN THIS FILE ! *}{if $type eq "input"}{assign var="img_type" value="INPUT type=image"}{else}{assign var="img_type" value="img"}{/if}{capture name=goimage}{include file="buttons/go_image.tpl"}{/capture}{if $style eq "button" and $webmaster_mode ne "editor"}<SCRIPT>
if (navigator.appName.indexOf('Microsoft')>=0)
document.write('<nobr><{$img_type} src="{$ImagesDir}/but1.gif" width="7" height="14" border="0" align="absmiddle"><FONT class="Button">{$button_title}</FONT>[img]{$ImagesDir}/but2.gif[/img]</nobr>');
else
document.write('<font class="FormButton">{$button_title} <{$img_type} {$smarty.capture.goimage|replace:"\r":""|replace:"\n":""}></font>' );
</SCRIPT>{else}<font class="FormButton">{$button_title} <{$img_type} {include file="buttons/go_image.tpl"}></font>{/if}

If anyone could point me in the right direction I would certainly appreciate it. I'm trying to do this in version 3.5.11

one thing to watch out for is people without flash installed.

no flash = no button = no sale
