[SWFObject] Multiple Flash files and images, download issues???

[Greg Brant]

What would happen if the SWFObject.write() replaced the DOM object that
containd the image tag?
 
and thefore removed the image from the DOM of the page?

the browser will make 2 requests for the image... 

if the image is done loading before the flash movie sends the request
for it, it should be cached and the user won't have to download it
again, but if it's a big image, and it's still loading in the html page
when the flash movie sends the request, it will be downloaded twice.

this behavior might vary from browser to browser, though...

Once for the alternate content and one from the flash file loading in
the image. Not sure how caching and so on would work in this situation.
Any ideas as I want to do it but I don't want to cane my bandwidth or
the users...
