I am also using the sifr jquery plugin (really feature filled site this) and have tried
to alter the code to use your flash plugin instead. I guess its one stage at a time!!
However I am unable to set the version it aways throws an error whatever I do!?!
I updated to jquery 1.0.3 (had to make other changes json - getJSON) this did not solve the issue
any idea about that? I think the issue with the version setting is causing some issue with using it instead of the sifr thingy since I need to have a htmloptions callback function
{ anyway with powers like this jQuery is certain to take the web by storm. I keep laying awake at night pondering what
popular apps like phpMyAdmin & phpList would be like if they were zested up with a little (or a lot of) jQuery majic.
PhpMyAdmin with interface selectables, drag n drop etc, sortable tables and edit inplace. Oh my!! }

Interesting... :-)
It would be pretty easy to use those libraries alongside my plugin, but replicating what they do
is probably beyond the scope of my plugin (a separate one, maybe?).
Try this (with JSFC):
var fc;
$('#element').flash(...).find('embed').each(function(){
fc = new JSFCommunicator(this);
}).end();
Then you should be able to use fc in the same way.
Note that this would only work for a single flash movie, but it could be setup for multiple
flash movies (by pushing the JSFCommunicator objects into an Array?) if that's what your after.
