[crmpicco]

Code:

function animateText(id,iStart,iCurrent,iDir) 
{
	var obj = document.getElementById(id);
    if(typeof(iStart)=="undefined") 
	{
    	iStart = 0;
    	iCurrent = iStart;
    	iDir = +2; // Increasing Value also increases speed
    }
    if(iDir > 0 && iCurrent > obj.parentNode.offsetHeight) 
	{
		/*
		obj.innerHTML = "<img border='0' src='/v2/asp/images/picco.gif' style='visibility: hidden' />";
		obj.innerHTML = obj.innerHTML + "empowered by Picco &copy;";
		*/
		obj.innerHTML = "<OBJECT codebase='http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0' WIDTH='200' HEIGHT='100' id='picco'><EMBED src='picco.swf' bgcolor='#333399' WIDTH='200' HEIGHT='100' NAME='volaro' TYPE='application/x-shockwave-flash' PLUGINSPAGE='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer'></EMBED></OBJECT>";
		//obj.innerHTML = "<img border='0' src='picco.swf' />";
    	iDir = -2; // Increasing Value also increases speed (must match the speed above)
    }
    iCurrent += iDir;
    obj.style.top = iCurrent + "px";
	var iSpeed = 15; // The Speed at which the image scrolls down and the text scrolls up (smaller = faster)
	
    if(iCurrent!=iStart) 
	{
    	window.setTimeout(function() { animateText(id, iStart, iCurrent, iDir) }, iSpeed);
    }
}

// If the Client's browser is MSIE then proceed with the functions to show/hide image	
if (browser.isIE)
{
	window.onload = function() 
	{
		var iWait = 1000; // How many seconds to wait after page loads to hide the image
		window.setTimeout(function() { animateText('scrollHead') }, iWait); 
		return true;
	};
}

I am trying to load this 'object' which is a flash file (picco.swf) from my javascript into a <td> cell using innerHTML. Is this possible, as it does not seem to work at the moment.

The code in question is:

Code:

obj.innerHTML = "<OBJECT codebase='http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0' WIDTH='200' HEIGHT='100' id='picco'><EMBED src='picco.swf' bgcolor='#333399' WIDTH='200' HEIGHT='100' NAME='volaro' TYPE='application/x-shockwave-flash' PLUGINSPAGE='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer'></EMBED></OBJECT>";

This code works, when coded into the cell, but I am looking to have it appear from below and gradually go to the top as it did previously with the text 'empowered by Picco'.....

Code:

<td align="right" valign="top">
	<div style="position: relative; z-index: -20;">
		<span id="scrollHead" class="div_Header_Pos">
			<OBJECT codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" 
			WIDTH="200" HEIGHT="100" id="volaro">
				<EMBED src="volaro.swf" bgcolor=#333399 WIDTH="200" HEIGHT="100" NAME="volaro" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED> 
			</OBJECT>							
		</span>
	</div>
</td>

I'm not sure what might be wrong here. Do you have a demo page online which demonstrates the problem?
It's best to have the whole source when debugging, just to make sure everything's ok.
