Answer 1

I am using:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="flashfile.swf" id="loader" name="loader" style="width:640px;height:480px;vertical-align:middle;">
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" />
    <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
    <param name="movie" value="flashfile.swf" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />    
</object>

Note: No need to use the embed tag anymore.
