How can I embed a flash movie in a zend view programmatically?

I have tried to embed a flash movie in a zend view using the htmlFlash helper.

In theory you only have to pass the movie path to the htmlFlash helper in a phtml view:

 echo $this->htmlFlash('/path/to/myMovie.swf');

  <object data="/path/to/flash.swf"
          type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
          classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
          codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab">
  </object>

However, I have done so and the code doesn't appear on the source code.

Has anyone had this prob开发者_StackOverflow中文版lem?

Thank you

Try to set width and height:

<?php echo $this->htmlFlash(
    $this->baseUrl('/gfx/flash.swf'),
    array('width' => 700, 'height' => 200)
    );
?>

Remember to check, if Adblock does not hide the actual element :)

90% chance you missed to ECHO the result. (= you wrote <?php $this->htmlFlash(...);?>)

In the public folder where my .swf files are located,
I had to add a .htaccess file with this one line:

RewriteEngine On
