Thanks Henrik, but the trouble here is that classid is deprecated in html5 and 
it won't validate. . .

    I wondered if any of you who use Flash would indicate how you approach the 
provision of alternative content when embedding the swf file in html5.  The 
basic use of embed:

    <embed  src="mainmenu/mainopening.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" 
width="497" height="329"/>

    is simplicity itself, but how do you provide alternative content for folk 
without flash? That is, what method do you recommend?  I always used to do this 
kind of thing:

<object data="mainopening.swf" width="497" height="281" 
type="application/x-shockwave-flash">
      <param name="movie" value="mainopening.swf" />
      <param name="quality" value="high" />
      <param name="bgcolor" value="#fff" />
      <img src="../sitegraphics/sheltieopening.jpg" alt="Sheltie opening 
graphic" width="485" height="268" />
    </object>Any help gratefully recvd.
