How to Use a Flash Player in HTML
Flash Player can be embedded into HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) documents. Use of Flash Player requires inputting a special embed code in the HTML document and allowing the browser to parse and execute it. Once Flash Player is finished running, it will automatically load the embedded movie file and play it in your browser window.
