flash banner on another site

I'm not entirely sure if I can explain this properly - I may not be using the proper terminology - but here goes...

I have my own website. I also have other sites at places like CafePress, etc. On those other sites, if I want to put a picture on my page, I need to host that picture elsewhere (like on Flickr) and use an img scr script in the HTML on my page in order for that picture to show up.

Now I want to have a Flash banner appear on those other pages instead of a static gif or jpg. I can host the banner on my own website; that isn't a problem. Img scr script isn't going to work for this. What HTML do I use instead?

BTW, what I want to do is permitted on these other pages, I just have to do the coding myself.

Hope this makes sense. Like I said, I'm not sure of the proper terminology. Thanks for any help!

Thanks for the help, however I'm still having a problem getting this to work. Please bear with me - I'm still in the learning phase.

Maybe if I give an example...

I have the flash file on my own website here:
http://www.corrieweb.nl/christmasflashbanner2.htm

I want to put a piece of HTML code on a different website that will make the above flash banner appear on it. I only have the ability to do HTML coding on this other page; not actually host the file there. Can this be done and if so, what do I need to do in the code to make it happen?

Thanks for your help!

Bad link for http://www.corrieweb.nl/christmasflashbanner2.htm . If you can edit the files on the other site, I don't see why you can't call the Flash file from wherever it is hosted. That's why I showed the example for the path like this: "http://Your_Site.com/file_name.swf". The HTML given for the media player should work on any other site without having to have the Flash file hosted there.

Corrected sentence.

This might help you to quickly change the target URL or text or image for the new website page.

All the best.
