I am trying to create a better header for my theme on smf forum, and wish to embed a quite complex flash movie that acts as a menu in they style of the tabs on the apple mac site.

I saw you used flash and you also use javascript to get it there.

My problem is with or without JS I do not really know what I am doing in terms of where to put the code

</object>

or how to enclose it ( is it echo ' either side, what does echo ' actually do?).

If I put it in the JS do I need to trim some of it off?

I am hoping you can help
