XHTML help needed

I'm not very good with xhtml and would appreciate it if someone could help me get this twitter widget to validate xhtml transitional.

<div style="width:160px;text-align:center"><embed src="http://twitter.com/flash/twitter_badge.swf" flashvars="color1=2118798&type=user&amp;id=18582602" quality="high" width="160" height="160" name="twitter_badge" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="always" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></div>

 

The following code is W3C validated and works in IE and FF. Good luck

<object width="160" height="160" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" class="pipe" data="http://twitter.com/flash/twitter_badge.swf">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="movie" value="http://twitter.com/flash/twitter_badge.swf" />
</object>

 

Good xira
