[SWFObject] suggested feature

Wed May 3 17:49:20 PDT 2006

If you use swfObject to embed multiple swfs, overwriting 
the content in multiple div's, is there a way to step 
through a list of swfObject instances and set the 
parameters for each?

So, in:

var so = new swfObject("myMovie.swf", "myMovie", "200", 
"200", "8", "#FFFFFF", true);

"so" is a new instance of swfObject.  If you wanted to 
embed multiple flash files, you would have to create new 
instances for each with unique instance names, correct? I 
really nice feature would be to follow this line of code 
with:

document.swfObjectArray.push(so).

That way, one could simply step through the array and set 
the parameters for each of the swfObjects.  You would have 
to create the swfObjectArray ahead of time ofcourse.

Do you have a feature like this, or is there a better way 
to do this?
