[SWFObject] FlashObject Undefined

first, update to the latest version - older versions have small bugs  
that may come back to haunt you.

second, if you are seeing that error, it usually means that you are  
trying to execute js before the script is loaded... so make sure you  
are linking the script in the head of the document, so it will be  
loaded 100% before you call the functions associated with it.
