This doesn't work because Firefox proper doesn't play .swf files. It hands it off to the Flash Plugin. So, one method is to write a simple .html file, embedding the Flash Plugin, naming the file you have: https://www.google.com/?q=embed+flash+player Another method is to open the file with Chrome, since Chrome *does* have Flash playback built-in. There's a problem here, which is that without the <embed> stuff, Chrome doesn't know how big to make the SWF object, so it fills the whole content area. It doesn't even maintain the "proper" aspect ratio, since Chrome doesn't know that, either. If this is important to you, you'll need to write the <embed> stuff regardless. On Windows, there are "Flash Player" programs that overcome this problem in other ways, but I don't know of any for Linux.
