Percents work fine in the EMBED but must be enclosed in quotes .
Don't use percents for the OBJECT when inside Tables.

The Netscape problem is the </TD> tag must be on the same line (no
return) as the Image. Otherwise gaps are created between cells.
This is a problem that can be solved easily for regular gifs just make
sure all the </TD>s are on the same line as the image - <IMG .

For Flash, if not using Javascript you can use the complete <EMBED and
all its attributes placed on the same line (without the <Object) and
make sure the </TD> is also on the same line. IE3 & 4 will work fine but
will not install the ActiveX Control component automatically when it's
not present.
<TD width=503 height=400><EMBED SRC="accueil.swf" width=503 height=400
></EMBED></TD>


If Javascript is used (such as with Aftershock), then you need to
document.write the whole Table or the complete Table cell from <TR> to
</TR>.

A work around I have used that is not perfect (it will leave a border at
the bottom of the swf table only) is:
document.write(' Width="100%" HEIGHT="99%"');
Do not change the sizes in the Object to % leave them exact.
If you get rid of the white line at the top of gif 007 (gif under the
swf) you will get a satisfactory look.
