is there a way to put alternative flash object in xslt

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to to embed a flash video in our site. It turns out the param object is not working with the other browser. So I try to use this code


       <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="{$virtual/umbracoFile}" width="500" height="400">
      
      
       </object>
      

but then my page displays differently whenever I try to insert this code. Is there another way of doing it?

Thanks,

Sherry

Hi Sherry,

Yes, you can do that - you just have to know how to generate comments in the output (regular comments in an XSLT file will just be ignored as they are, well, comments :-)

You can do this:
```
   <xsl:comment><![CDATA[[if !IE]>]]></xsl:comment>
        <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="{$virtual/umbracoFile}" width="500" height="400">
    <xsl:comment><![CDATA[<![endif]]]></xsl:comment>
    <xsl:comment><![CDATA[[if !IE]>]]></xsl:comment>
        </object>
    <xsl:comment><![CDATA[<![endif]]]></xsl:comment>
```
(Unfortunately, the CDATA Sections don't add to the readability of it, but they free you from having to escape the less-than characters in the comments)
