<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Interesting approach. I think if you were to
add the flashvars, this could be really useful. I don't know of any tool
that will handle the flash vars for me, so that would be really
nice.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For plain vanilla conversion, it is
probably easier to use the html template approach. That is, pick a swfobject
template from Flash's publishing options. Of course, you have to have one
installed, but there are several out there already written. It might be
interesting to have this group check them out and report back on the
relative merits of each. Here are a couple I have just googled
up:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><A
href="http://flog.fluid.com/experiments/swfobject-extension/">http://flog.fluid.com/experiments/swfobject-extension/</A> :
this one apparently overwrites the default template. Not sure I'm happy
about that, so I haven't tried using it. An advantage is that it ships as an
mxp, so is dead easy to install</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><A
href="http://ubergeek.tv/article.php?pid=111">http://ubergeek.tv/article.php?pid=111</A> :
you have to put this into the HTML templates folder yourself, but the path
is provided.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><A
href="http://www.mail-archive.com/osflash@osflash.org/msg10917.html">http://www.mail-archive.com/osflash@osflash.org/msg10917.html</A> :
this one has a dead link to the template, but some good hints on how you
could add the swfobject code to your swfobject template without breaking
it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There are also a couple at the Flash Exchange.
One is a macromedia active content thing that uses their script, not
Geoff's. But this one looks intriguing in that it apparently lets you choose
to use express install without hand editing the html. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Personally I use an html template that was
