[SWFObject] Using swfObject with named anchors

Thu May 4 07:40:48 PDT 2006

well it should just work, but you'll have to make sure that you have  
all the correct parameters added in...

it looks like they have the swfliveconnect param set, and you'll need  
to place the anchors on the page for it to work in ie5 i think.

have you tried it yet?
