you need to export or save the file as a .swf and then look up the code to embed .swf files into HTML.

Where do you have it published to?

Well at least in Flash 8 you hit publish settings under file then theres a box with a bunch of checkboxes with file extensions next to them. If its similar to that check off .swf and hit publish. Then go find it where you saved the file. Make sure you save it before publish or it wont work and then save after publishing cause i said so.

After you published it you will have a file on your computer(wherever it was saved at) that will read "whateveryoucalledit.SWF". Then you have to go to a SWF host site(like you host pictures) I use imageshack.net. It's free, and you don't have to register. And upload your SWF file onto the site, once you upload the file onto Imageshack it will generate the html and you just copy/paste it wherever.
