[SWFObject] swfObject script within target div?

[Geoff Stearns]

it may work in some browsers, but it's not a very good idea...

swfobject replaces the content in the target div, so in a sense, it  
would be replacing the script call that inserts itself.. so maybe if  
you had some code after the .write() call, that might not be executed.

not to mention strange results if the page is loading slow - you  
would basically be trying to replace the html content of the div  
before the div is loaded, which is bad.
