Only reason I didn't want to show the code was that if someone knew how to do it from scratch, and explain it well, they wouldn't be influenced by whatever code i had here.
Couple of things that are odd to me, is that it seems when u give something an id tag, like <object id="whatever" that it's referenced somewhere else. My only experience with naming things, i.e. giving them id's, is using CSS to give a style to a certain area that you've named.
Anyway, feast upon this.
