Default Doctype

I have some Flash movies on my sites (think banners, and you won't be a long way away). I always have trouble trying to validate the documents, because the Doctype always seems to be wrong. I am particularly concerned about SEO, with robots failing because of the Doctype giving errors.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Default Have you heard of Flash satay?

Have you tried the technique outlined here:
http://www.alistapart.com/articles/flashsatay/

often it's the <embed> tag that causes the problems, the method described in the AListApart article shows how you can dispense with many redundant tags so frequently the cause of validation angst! :o)
