this solutions fails for some certain browsers. the classied atribute is set for windows only, when you change that to shockwave, yhen firefox and Netscape does view the flash file.

my question is since Dreamwaver is the standard tool and failing with flash files is there an adjustment that we should make on the code for the file to show?

Here is a simple answer - place the Flash in a file of it's own, and use the SSI "Include" statement in the Template to include the SWF in every page built from the template - the template and the SWF can each be updated without cross - interference. You want the file with the SWF to be just a snippet of a page, not a whole page. I have my own problems, I have worked HTML for years, but not with Flash ;) I was following this down, and if there was an answer to the SWF in a template, I did not see it.

The editable region and ../ seems to have worked, but I still get a white box to the dimensions of the swf file in IE instead of the actual file, and it asks me to update my Flash version every time, even though I have already done so (several times!)

As mentioned in an earlier comment, the key is using a library item. You then have to link to it in each individual file, but it does work! I used an editable region in my template, then went into each child of that template and linked the flash file located in my library. Wa la . . . it FINALLY works!!! I found a fix!!!

I get a message that the flash player isn't updated enough. The same video outside of dreamweaver plays just fine with flash player. I have flash player 10 (most up to date) and dreamweaver cs4 not able to preview videos I put in dreamweaver. I get a message that the flash player isn’t updated enough.
