Embedding a flash player

Thanks v7n for all your good advice. I 'm trying to embed a flash player in my website to demo tunes:

http://sans-moi.com/discography.htm

I found some code on http://www.longtailvideo.com/support...lash#swfobject


<embed
src="player.swf"
width="300"
height="300"
allowscriptaccess="always"
allowfullscreen="true"
/><embed

When I cut and paste the code into my HTML its obvious I don't have all the necessary code, files, located in the proper directories. And the "longtail" website is not very clear or at least it doesn't directly apply to what I'm trying to accomplish.

A couple of questions:
1. Is this player something I can preview on my desktop or do I need to have it residing on my website to see the player?
2.Where do I get this "src="player.swf" " file from?
3. Why doesn't my Front Page/Insert menu allow me too inster a flash player? Maybe its too old a version Copyright 1995- 2001?

I've already converted the .wma files on my website to .swf. I just need a player to locate on my site to play the audio files that are there now as .wma files.

Thanks in advance for all your good assistance,

Scott
