Right On DL!
Geoff, so once a flash is embedded using the so.write, one
can't dynamically change its wmode, for instance?
DL, it sounds as if your method allows this?
Either way, Geoff, it seems like on your swfObject site,
swfObject Examples section you may want to show a standard
way to load multiple swfs along the lines of DL's method.
BTW, DL, should:
var so = new SWFObject(src, movie_id, w, h, v, bgcolor)
be
var so = new SWFObject(div_id, src, movie_id, w, h, v,
bgcolor)?
