asked on
WC3 compliant html for embedding flash
How can I modify the following html to make it WC3 compliant:
<embed src="img/something.swf" quality="high" type="application/x-shockw
Testing at http://validator.w3.org it says "This page is not Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional!" and it says there's no attributes for src, quality, type, pluginspace, and element "EMBED" undefined.

No difference.
<embed src="img/something.swf" quality="high" type="application/x-shockw
<embed src="img/something.swf" quality="high" type="application/x-shockw

The full object code was:
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="img/something.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<embed src="img/something.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="658" height="237" name="something" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDom
</object>
which I think matches the 'twice cooked' method in the links.

Thank you.
The problem may be the way you are closing the tag. "/>" is used to close XHTML tags that don't have closing tags. Embed does have a closing tag and you should use it in HTML or XHTML.
<embed src="img/something.swf" quality="high" type="application/x-shockw
</embed>
This may fix the validation error. The rest of that code looks OK to me.
