Flash is not displaying in firefox but displays in IE

[sunflower12345]

Here's my code...

<div id="header">
<div><!--Valid flash version 8.0-->
<object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,24"
width="820" height="258">
<param name="movie" value="flash/header_fv8.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="menu" value="false" />
<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
<!--[if !IE]> <-->
</object>
<!--> <![endif]-->
</object></div>
</div>

Welcome to FlashKit!

Object tag embeds your SWF in IE only. You also need to put <embed> tag so that the SWf is also embedded in other browsers. Please have a look at the link below:

Please download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (for IE browser)from: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/

If you have trouble inserting swf into IE, please check this example:

<object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000" id="banner"codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" border="0" width="754" height="64"><param name="movie" value="banner.swf"><param name="quality" value="High"><embed src="http://www.domain.com/video/banner.swf"pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"type="application/x-shockwave-flash" name="banner"width="754" height="64" quality="High"></object>

Now IE uses param movie tag to download swf file and Firefox uses embed src tag to download swf. Correct code would be

<object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000" id="banner"codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"border="0" width="754" height="64"><param name="movie" value="http://www.domain.com/video/banner.swf"><param name="quality" value="High"><embed src="http://www.domain.com/video/banner.swf"pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"type="application/x-shockwave-flash"name="banner" width="754" height="64" quality="High"></object>
