Otherwise, an approach (which is recommended) can be to use a JavaScript to include the Flash movie into the page, for instance <a href="http://www.robertnyman.com/2007/04/19/flashreplace-a-light-weight-javascript-to-insert-flash-movies-into-your-web-page/" rel="nofollow">FlashReplace</a>. tanicos,

First, take a look at the DOCTYPE.

This is an excellent method for displaying xhtml compliant flash content. You should consider submitting it to W3C that's still recomending a 2002 article in ALA with a much more complicated method.

My take was that screen readers would interpret the fallback content within the <code>object</code> tags. I've done some testing where it seemed to work fine, but maybe it isn't properly consistent? Isofarro,

This is a good example of the situation where with today's technology, valid markup conflicts with practical accessibility.
