Improve flash html code to be more compliant and cross browser

[yurj@…]

read this:

 http://www.alistapart.com/articles/flashsatay/

the author tells it works in every browser, and it is xhtml compliant (so don't use the "embed" tag):

===========

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash data="c.swf?path=movie.swf" width="400" height="300">

<param name="movie" value="c.swf?path=movie.swf" />

<img src="noflash.gif" width="200" height="100" alt="" />

</object>

If the browser doesn’t know how to play objects with a MIME type of application/x-shockwave-flash, it will simply go for the next child element and give that a try. I’m guessing that a simple image element should be okay for most people. Failing that, you can simply use text.

We dont use embed tags at all, (if ever? i cant remember)

Latest standard default template for indytube inside plumi 0.2.3-rc4 is http://plumi.org/browser/indytube/branches/plumi-0.2.x/plumi.template

We dont have a fallback image, but ... can somebody test on a non-flash-enabled browser and report back? (screenshots would be nice)

Here's a screener from Opera 9.27 under ubuntu intrepid - in which flash doesn't actually work at all :) (google it)
