Thread: I need an advice: swf in email?

Is it possible to send an swf (or video) in email, not as a link or an attachment? I tried to embed it - it did not work, i guess I did something wrong.

I think it has to be an attachment or link. Also there are size limits on messages - couple MB or so.

Thanks, chaika. An attachment or a link will be my last resort, I'd like to make it visible in the email's body.
I uploaded the file to imageshack.us (it's only 200 kb so no problem here), and tried to use an "embedding" link (an html code). But for some reason I could not make it work when I copy-pasted it into email's body. It turns into text. How can I make gmail see it as html? ^_^

Putting my grammar Nazi hat on: "I need an advice".

Серьезно? Запомню.

Advice is not countable.

And on topic: e-mail programs do not have a flash plugin. And that's a good thing, too, as Flash is among the primary vectors for virus deployment today. So if your e-mail program did display Flash content inline, viruses would have it even easier to infect systems.

bitpicker, thank you for clearing this up! I can stop wasting my time now.
