    Hi,

    I;ve been trying to embed a slideshow of my set on flickr. Each time I press Preview, code pasted into the post body area get’s truncated to a short url which doesn’t point to the slideshow anyway. what I would like to achieve is a box similar to embeded youtube video but with sontent from my photo set.

    Longs code for embeding slideshow from Flickr:
    <object width=”500″ height=”375″ classid=”clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000″ codebase=”http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0″><param name=”flashvars” value=”offsite=true&lang=en-us&page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2F26445262%40N02%2Fsets%2F72157627980965059%2Fshow%2F&page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2F26445262%40N02%2Fsets%2F72157627980965059%2F&set_id=72157627980965059&jump_to=” /><param name=”allowFullScreen” value=”true” /><param name=”src” value=”http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=109615″ /><param name=”allowfullscreen” value=”true” /><embed width=”500″ height=”375″ type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” src=”http://www.flickr.com/apps/slideshow/show.swf?v=109615″ flashvars=”offsite=true&lang=en-us&page_show_url=%2Fphotos%2F26445262%40N02%2Fsets%2F72157627980965059%2Fshow%2F&page_show_back_url=%2Fphotos%2F26445262%40N02%2Fsets%2F72157627980965059%2F&set_id=72157627980965059&jump_to=” allowFullScreen=”true” allowfullscreen=”true” /></object>
