    First off, best check if you have permission to use that on another website.

    If you do, then you can reference it remotely without saving the flash file to your own website. You'll need to link to their JS file, or save that though.

    Contact wilsonsauctions, the owners of the banner and ask for their permission. They may allow it if its free advertisement. It also depends on the website your putting it on.

    i have permission alright. i've been asked to put it up on another site as a favour but i usually have the flash file or embed code to just put in.

    can i embed this then without the file? can't seem to find the ref to the file in the source code itself either...

    my mind has just completely gone blank or i'm blind, one or the other, and there are always computer genius' on here thankfully to enlighten me:)

    i just don't want the hassle of chasing up for the file if i can do it now. just hoping there was a quicker way around it without having to get the file from them. if i need it i need it though. what do you think?

    appreciate the help guys!

    Yes, you should be able to embed it remotely, but in case the remote files are changed or if the site is unavailable, it might be better to save them locally.

    If you would prefer to embed them remotely, then you would need to change the line where the javascript file is added, and also where the movie is embedded.

    Copy and paste all this from the page and save these files:

    The swf file (right click and save as)
    and the JavaScript file (right click and save as)

    [html]
    <script language="javascript"> AC_FL_RunContent = 0; </script>
    <script language="javascript"> DetectFlashVer = 0; </script>
    <script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js" language="javascript"></script>
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    //
    // Globals
    // Major version of Flash required
    var requiredMajorVersion = 8;
    // Minor version of Flash required
    var requiredMinorVersion = 0;
    // Revision of Flash required
    var requiredRevision = 24;
    //
    // -->
    </script>
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="#ffffff">
    <!--url's used in the movie-->

    <!--text used in the movie-->
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    if (AC_FL_RunContent == 0 || DetectFlashVer == 0) {
    alert("This page requires AC_RunActiveContent.js.");
    } else {
    var hasRightVersion = DetectFlashVer(requiredMajorVersion, requiredMinorVersion, requiredRevision);
    if(hasRightVersion) { // if we've detected an acceptable version
    // embed the flash movie
