You can get various plugins for wordpress that allow you to place swfobject flash in posts/pages
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tags/swfobject (note that many are available and you should seek support from the developer of the wp plugin for issues that pertain to wp) also note that the Script from deconcept.com is a previous version of swfobject 2.2 the current version is different. Make sure to get a upto date wp plugin installed (it will be using swfobject 2.2) the markup generated by flash is problematic and swfobject's primary aim to circumvent these issues, making flash content publishing pain free across browser. with 2.x version you can use static or dynamic publishing You can familiarize yourself with swfobject 2.2 on the wik and also learnswfobject.com http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/documentation http://learnswfobject.com/ - S On 9 November 2011 15:36, Pilot Shoe <[email protected]> wrote: > hello - I have been struggling to find out how to embed a .swf > directly into a wordpress post.
