want to place a countdown calender on my forum for Christmas

[macysmom]

I found a calender I really like for my forum to count down to Christmas but it will not load, can anyone help me with the script?

This is what I have:  


<object width=”365? height=”211?><param name=”movie” value=”http://www.allthingschristmas.com/traditions/main.swf”></param><param name=”allowFullScreen” value=”true”></param><embed src=”http://www.allthingschristmas.com/traditions/main.swf” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” allowfullscreen=”true” width=”365? height=”211?></embed></object><br><a href=”http://www.allthingschristmas.com”><font size=”2?>Created by allthingschristmas.com</font></a>

Thank you in advance

The problem appears to be the use of non-standard quotation marks (you can tell since they are slanted (”) instead of upright ("). Once you change those back to standard quotes the embed should work.


The change to slanted quotes probably occurred when that embed code was placed in an editor such as word that loves to "pretty up" stuff. The problem is the HTML language that turns that embed code into an actual embed doesn't like "pretty".

nice! Thank you very much, I just couldn't for the life of me see what was wrong with the script, sometimes a second eye helps!
