Comments on: jquery.flash – Who needs swfobject when you have this?

No, you’d have to do that in the swf itself. Javascript doesn’t have any control of the playback of a swf file unless you explicitly expose that access in the swf itself. In which case, you might as well just use a container swf that loads other swfs as a sort of playlist.

Is it possible for this to monitor when the swf has completed and then start up a different swf file?

Please disregard and delete the last message. a) it had nothing to do with Mikkel’s post, and b) I just learned that Flash always ‘eats’ the click event

I’m not sure exactly what it is you are trying to do, but normal Javascript/Flash interfaces should work as normal. Just find use it’s id or class, since they are retained unless specifically overridden, and do whatever it is you need to do.

This is awesome and worked perfectly! Thanks! I only have one question – how do I target a function inside the Flash file?

Something like this:

$(“#flashcontent”).flash(update(dest));

Where “update” is the function inside the Flash. This doesn’t work, however. Any pointers?
