Easy question about inserting FLASH into HTML document

Sorry for the simple question, but I'm SURE someone here will be able to help me...

I made a little Flash movie last night (my first ever!!) entitled "intro2.fla". I'd like to put it on "index.html", but for some reason it won't show up (only a small gray square in middle of the page... actual flash animation is significantly larger).

Here's the code, if this helps:

<html>
<head>
<title>untitled</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body bgcolor="#000000" text="#CC0000" link="#CC0000" vlink="#CC0000" alink="#CC0000"><CENTER>
<p><object classid="clsid😀27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0"
<param name=movie value="intro2.fla">
<param name=quality value=high>
<embed src="intro2.fla" quality=high pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash">
</embed>
</object></p>
<p align="center"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><a href="index1.html"><font size="2">click
here to skip flash intro</font></a></font></p></CENTER>
</body>
</html>


Thank you so much! 🙂
 
Flash should have .swf extension. Why is yours called .fla? (intro2.fla)

Just look at any Web site that uses Flash, and copy its code (macromedia.com for example)

Gah. I have no idea why the extension is .fla... I'll go back into the program and "save as" a .swf extension. Besides that, the code would stay the same? Thanks so much!
 
Yah, .fla is the extension that you save it in so you can still really work on it later, kinda like Fireworks saves as .png, but to really use it it will export wiht html and some gif's
