Try the following.
In Macromedia Flash, create something very simple, then publish it as
html.
Examine what you get, then copy/paste everything between (and including)
the <object> tags, and paste these into a suitable location within the
<body> section of your html code (for your existing web page that you
are wanting to put swf into).
Make sure that the swf file is in the webfolder, then change the
reference to it in the copied code.
Your webpage should pick it up ok and display it in browser.

for example:
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
 codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
 WIDTH="400" HEIGHT="300" id="Metung-07" ALIGN="">
 <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="Metung-07.swf"> <PARAM NAME=quality
 VALUE=high> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF> <EMBED
 src="Metung-07.swf" quality=high bgcolor=#FFFFFF  WIDTH="400"
 HEIGHT="300" NAME="Metung-07" ALIGN=""
 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
 PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>
The swf file in this example is "Metung-07.swf"

Anyway, that is how I do it.
Keith.
