[SWFObject] Using swfObject with named anchors

Thu May 4 07:54:00 PDT 2006

Thanks for the reply Geoff
I'm not so clued up on all this stuff (I still haven't been able to get 
2 Flash movies on the page using swfObject :0) so no, I haven't tried 
anything yet. I don't know where I should add it. I will try it out 
myself if nobody else has a working solution.

Just to mention though, I have tried the page without any parameters 
set in the HTML and it doesn't work.

Will let you know.
Thanks again,
