Flash embed code works except in Internet Explorer

Flash ain't my thing. What am I missing? I'm getting these boxes in Internet Explorer.

<object width="100" height="65"  >
<param name="wmode" value="<?php echo $entry_user_fish;?>">
<embed src="<?php echo $entry_user_fish;?>" width="100" height="65" wmode="transparent" >   </embed>
</object>

Edit: A little more Info: The php values to to a SWF which works in every browser but IE. IE/ flash says 'movie not loaded on each flash object and the progress bar says 14 items remaining, so its not downloading them correctly. The white boxes are flash objects.

Solution

  • I figured it out. I needed to use:

    <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> 
<param name="movie" value="moviename.swf">
