Erich,

SWFs in HTML tables can be pretty tricky...especially if you are trying
to keep them scalable. It seems like you just need a fixed 800x90 movie
w/o scalability, so if you
haven't done this already, try to specify the height & width in the
object/embed tags as well as in the table cell. This usually works
because once you put a swf into a
table cell it doesn't know what to do with itself if it's height & width
are percentage values -- 'do I scale to xx% of the browser window? the
table cell?' Often it will
scale itself down to something so tiny you may miss it, and since your
movie is so thin, it might be there, but too thin to see.

HTH,
Randy
