Hi JD
yes, flash and sitecore not palying nice is the source of great frustration
the one workaroud which is ugly, but gets the job done is
using
this in your html view
////////

inline[src="url://www.yourdomain.com/App_Media/yourSWFdirectory/slideshow.swf"
style="width: 550px; height: 420px; float: right;"]inline
///////
src - is uri to your swf file
style - up to you, you can add as many attributes as you want
make sure no spaces between beginning and ending //inline// and
brackets // [ ] //

make sure that both your .swf file and your xml file are in the same
directory/folder under /yourSWFdirectory, publish them both from media
and then publish your page.

it bugs me that it's a non-508 compliant iframe, in essence, but....
we had no choice

grrr

let me know if that helps out

cass
