RE: [flexcoders] FABridge aclarations...
What part are you asking if it needs to be embedded? The javascript side that lives in the HTML definitely does not get embedded. You can launch your app that is using the FABrdige from your next HTML file or you can modify the HTML template file in FB to use the JS code from the FABridge html examples. Does that make sense? You still need the ActionScript side of things embedded in the swf to act as your component or proxy that links your AS methods throughout your app to your JS methods in the parent html file that is hosting the swf.

Re: [flexcoders] FABridge aclarations...
Thanks Karl, but i think that I don't explain me very good. Flex generate an MXML app, and, only in the bin folder, autogenerate the swf file. The Javascript code is included in a HTML page. Flex generate an HTML page only in the bin folder containing the javascript methods for history and other thinks like the get plugin. The think that I want to know is if I need touch these HTML generated by flex, or generate one myself, but in this last case, I need the swf file... I must use the bin/swf file? This comment is because in the fabridge example, the html embedd the swf file from a src, and in the html generated by flex, the swf is embbeded on the fly or something like this. If you have a very simple example (the most simple as possible) of one flex project using fabridge I appreciate it very much.

RE: [flexcoders] FABridge aclarations...
At compile time, FlexBuilder generates your hosting HTML file based on the HTML template in html-template/index.template.html The easiest option right now is to take your generated html file and add in the javascript methods that you need, and save it off as a different html file. Then after you compile, just hit your new html file instead of the generated file (if you want, you can set FB to open to a specific HTML file so it always uses your other file). Does that make sense? The SWF will get regenerated with each compile and if you have added the FABridge component, it will always be in there - regardless of what HTML file hosts that swf.
