Hi Germ

its just for a flash file which will act as the banner for the top of the webpage


You will need the <object> … </object> tag.

Check out this excellent article ... I work this way, and code is widley supported by browsers, and passes validation.

thanks for links and help


As for your second question:

Also when i tried putting the <a href> tags on either side so that it was a link, it didnt work. any special reason??

I would think that it is because <embed> … </embed> is a block-level elements, and <a> … </a> is an inline element; From the W3:
Generally, block-level elements may contain inline elements and other block-level elements. Generally, inline elements may contain only data and other inline elements. Inherent in this structural distinction is the idea that block elements create "larger" structures than inline elements.
