    Hi,
    Wondering what to place instead of the mymovie ID. What is this ID and where do I get the correct ID name?
    Thanks you

    I have the same question too.

    Thanks...

    the site is here - but some people can and some can't see it.. http://www.mime11.com (It is a flash 8 Swf). Also - I will be adding (not on the same page) a Flash 6 page. What must I remember to do please?

    the id can be anything you want... whatever id you pass in the swfobject constructor is what id the object or embed tag will have, so you can use that to communicate with the swf, or to set css styles, etc. etc.

    expressinstall.as, so_tester.fla, swfobject_source.js

    swfobject.js, so_tester.swf, expressinstall.html - plus the other pages.... Which is the swfobject `constructor' ?

    (I did this back in March. On my server I have so_tester.swf. so I'm assuming by using an id of so_tester I'm doing the right thing). It's tricky to be sure as it seems to work for my machine and IE7 with Flash 8 now 9 pluging but some people are having probs. Thanks anyway.

    the id can be anything that you would use in any id attribute..

    like <div id="foo"> - the id would be 'foo'

    when i say the constructor, i mean the line of code that looks like this:

    var so = new SWFObject('myswf.swf', 'myid', .....

    etc. etc.
