[SWFObject] Search Engine | Need Some Help Please

[Will Smith]

Hello and thanks for reply everyone.

Chris, when you say :-

I >I think you need to add the text that you want to be picked up by the
>search engine in between here:
>
><div id="flashcontent">

well I just placed the metatage info inside the div, is that what you mean? 
can you please check it again and let me know,  please forgive me  I am just 
not familiar with this at all.

it would be unfourtunate if I have to make the front page a static HTML page 
so the search engine can pick it up.

there has to be some kind of a solution, so that I can get Google to pick up 
the site with the correct url. I mean check out www.moock.org, it has the 
first page as flash and if you Google moock its number one!!

how does it work for this site? it doesn't even use swfobject!

also John mentioned that Google has the old site cached, how do I get it to 
pick up the new site ! if it can? do I need to do anything, or does the web 
hosting company need to do anything!

thank you all for your help and patience.

Kind Regards,

Will
