i have a js function wich should resize a swf:

function resize (newH) {
window.document.imagin.height = newH;
}

if i embed the swf with the old swfobject 1, i can resize it any time by calling his id.height. i just tried this, never used before with swfobject.

var so = new SWFObject("imagin.swf?<?php echo rand(0,5000); ?>", "imagin", "100", "100", "8", "#f9f9f9");


anyway, i saw the update and i updated myself to swfobject 2. the code now looks like:

<script type="text/javascript">
function resize (newH) {
window.document.imagin.height = newH;
}
var flashvars = { settings_xml: "settings.xml", path: "poze" };
var params = { allowfullscreen: "true", allownetworking: "all", bgcolor: "#3F3F3F" };
var attributes = { id: "imagin", name: "imagin" };

swfobject.embedSWF("imagin.swf?<?php echo rand(0,5000); ?>", "imagin_instance_1", "483", "400", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);

resize(800);
</script>

but the resize is not working anymore, the id, the name, they are all named "imagin"
any ideeas?

You can also have a look at some of the prebuilt js libraries for resizing:

Using Jvascript Tweener (which is pretty cool):

one thing, if you want to use it into a block of text you have to modify from 'absolute' to 'relative', otherwise the swf will stay on top of the text.

in fact, i removed almost entire code because analyzes the window size and i don't want this:

gEBI(target).style.position = 'relative';
//sets width
gEBI(target).style.width = max_w+'px';
//sets height
gEBI(target).style.height = max_h+'px';
