[Zope] using flash as logo in plone?

i know how to write the tags for flash that's not the problem.  It's the
location of the flash file that is giving me problems i think.

Can you use relative paths to .swf files from within Zope? In one example I
looked at they had something like this
src="/swf/logo.swf"  - i added this file in my file system relative to the
zope_home but i still cannot see it.  Can anyone bring me up to speed on
using file system objects in Zope?

Well. Flash creates a HTML file where you can copy the
essential parts. Make sure you use the correct URL
where the .swf file is mentioned in the code and
place the file there. Make sure the mime-type is
correct (should be if you just upload).

There is nothing special with flash or other
embedding in Zope.

If you dont really know how this all works... well
maybe you just stick to images. Your users will
probably appreciate it ;-)
