Unhappy PHP and Flash wont play nice.

Hello all,

I had a strange problem today when I change my pages from HTM to PHP.
On the index.php page, I have a little flash banner that rotates a few pics with a fade effect on the transition.
This was working fine as an HTM page but once I change it to PHP, the banner wont load. I'm super new to PHP but I'm sure I couldn't kill the banner with one include command!

The reason for the change is so that I can have the navigation and logo, at the top of the screen, included and save me having to change 10 pages for on link change.
The include is before (above) the banner and works fine, the flash refuses to play ball. On right clicking the area where the banner should be, I get a message saying "About Adobe Flash player 9..." and nothing else.

If I can't get this sorted out, I'll just forgo the effect and code a timer in JS.

Thanks in advance

Wolf

P.S
The site in question (still a work in progress) http://lilianjanes.co.uk

The page is all validated 100% and I have tested it in IE7 win, Safari on mac and FF 2.0.0.14 Linux.
