Short update for and anyone finding this old thread: the old advice from (upload .swf + use <object>/<embed>), and (publish via Dreamweaver) was technically correct in 2011 — but Flash is no longer a viable option for public websites. Adobe ended Flash Player support on December 31, 2020 and blocked Flash content beginning January 12, 2021. (adobe.com)

Major browser vendors removed or disabled Flash around the same time (Firefox removed support in early 2021; Chromium/Chrome removed Flash support as part of the Chrome 88-era roadmap). Relying on a .swf will break for most visitors and is a security risk; do not ask visitors to install legacy Flash plugins. (support.mozilla.org)

Practical options that replace the old embed approach:

  • If the original .fla exists, convert it to an HTML5 Canvas (CreateJS) or export assets using Adobe Animate’s HTML5 Canvas publishing workflow. ()
  • If the animation was made in After Effects, export as a Lottie (Bodymovin) JSON and render with lottie-web for tiny, scalable vector animations. (github.com)
  • If re-authoring is impossible and the SWF must be preserved, use an emulator like Ruffle to run legacy SWFs in modern browsers (best for archival/controlled use, not recommended as a public-facing marketing banner). (ruffle.rs)

Example: a simple, robust banner fallback is an optimized WebM/MP4 video with a poster image — modern, performant, and supported everywhere:

<video autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="banner.jpg">
  <source src="banner.webm" type="video/webm">
  <source src="banner.mp4" type="video/mp4">
  <p>Static image or accessible text fallback here.</p>
</video>

(Use the HTML5 <video> pattern and provide accessible fallbacks.) (developer.mozilla.org)

Quick checklist: prefer HTML5/Lottie/video; keep file sizes small; add accessible text/skip controls; remove any leftover .swf files and avoid linking to third‑party Flash downloads. For archival SWFs, prefer Ruffle; for production banners, re-author to HTML5.

you will need to copy the swf file + any other script associated (can leave .fla) to the website server, then use the <embed> or <object> tags to add to webpage:

refer to adobe help for the tags: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/415/tn_4150.html

publish your flv file with html. then you can see the a html file will be created. view the source of the page. then copy only code of between <object> </object> tag.
then paste that code where you want to see in you site...

The simplest way is to just google/bing/whatever for the proper html to put the banner into your site. Using Dreamweaver is simple and easy, but putting a flash movie in a site with using Dreamweaver is horrendous on the code side-a TON of extra crap code you don't need, id's are ridiculously long-20+ characters, and the code the DW writes is just plain ugly.
