cs5 building swf for the wrong version

Hey folks, I'm pretty new to flash, so maybe I'm missing something.

I'm using CS5 flash professional to build a swf. I have it publishing to flash 8, actionscript 2. but it will only work with browsers that have 10.1+ plugins, no matter what I try.

is there something really obvious that I'm missing?

开发者_开发技巧Edit:

I'm using swfobject.embed. it looks like this:

swfobject.embedSWF("/foo.swf", "myContent", "400", "300", "9.0.0", "/foo.swf", flashvars);

You'll have to make sure your project settings are correctly set to compile the swf to be backwards compatible.

Under "publish settings" (file->publish settings... on a mac), click on the "flash" tab at the top, and change the player version to 8. Once you've done this, your swfobject will work just fine, (and is a little more advisable than the answered straight object/embed tag above, as swfobject will generate that for you).

Hope that helps!

use this in your browser
