    Just to update:

    It seem the game im trying to embed on its original site is ran through a game container of some sort!

    So...

    Would there be any way to get the real swf file from the site??

    this is the game > http://kids.aol.com/KOL/2/Games/FlashHolder/minyanland-catch-the-money

    if you view the source you can see it calls catchmoney.swf through gamecontainer.swf!

    Im stumped!

    Email the website whos content you are taking and ask them if you are allowed to do this.
