Your banner doesn't work correctly in any other browser and here's why. The align setting is set to the path to the movie:

But it has been working in the other browsers and no changes have been made , I havent been installing it with your mod, cos im doing something wrong when i try it , i still havent figured out where everything goes in code swish gives me , so i have been usin a diff flash program and just uploading it and placing code in all 3 overall headers and everyones been able to view it the guy that said he couldnt view it today was viewing it last night and has been all along , just today for some reason he couldnt

that code you pasted must have come from your replacement mod i couldnt get it to work in that at all so went bk to doing it how i was b4 the mod and the file i have up isnt that file , the one i have up now is welcome.swf not the leo welcome.swf maybe that was the problem i left that info in your replacement mod dontknow

Someone modified the code because the code I saw today wouldn't work in any browser. It was pointing to a file that didn't exist. You should be able to see that the align shouldn't contain a URL and the src should be pointing to a valid flash file, which wasn't the case in your GetawayPurple overall_header.tpl file. I imagine that the same problem could be true in the other two templates as well...

I think thats cos your looking in your replacement mod and like i said in my edit i didnt use it i tried to and couldnt so did it how i had been b4 the mod i think as i was adding that info you were replying already so didnt see what i said

Nvm I think I see what I did wrong , i forgot to change name of file on those two templates where the 2nd url in code goes , I think thats it anyways i just looked at overall header after you fixed it and compared to one I had there b4 the fix and thats only difference I see I left the leo welcome in the 2nd url instead of making it just welcome ... is that what it was ?

No, actually I downloaded a current copy of your GetawayPurple/overall_header.tpl and fixed the code there. The code I posted above came from your most current GetawayPurple/overall_header.tpl file...

I don't know whether to write about my problem here or not but i think it's quite related to Flash Banner topic here so I may ask here. And If i am wrong, I am really sorry to the topic author.

The banner which is there in my forum board on top left which is in gif format and it's name is logo_phpBB.gif so is it possible to add there .swf banner with the same name or any way to add it or i can only keep .gif dontknow

Ok I see what you mean , thats what i did was dl my current copy after you fixed it and compared to the one I had there b4 you fixed it , and where your using proper names like src i called it the 2nd spot I enter url but yea what you said is what i meant ....I think lol idk maybe I'll get this one day

You might not have noticed that our logo is a Flash movie. Check it out. You can do that too. You don't have to keep a gif, jpg, bmp, etc logo. Since this is Open Source, you can make it anything that you want...

Here is the code for our logo:
