At Fluid we’ve been using SWFObject , a useful bit of JavaScript that handles these changes quite nicely. The other day, after publishing several .fla files and having to update the generated HTML each time and eventually growing quite tired of the process, I decided it was time to give SWFObject a more permanent home.

The solution, modify Flash’s default publish profile to include a modified HTML template that uses SWFObject instead of the standard Object and Embed tags. Now, when I publish HTML with my .fla files Flash uses this new SWFObject enabled HTML. I was so happy with the result that I decided to package it up into an extension for others to enjoy.

You can find the extension along with release notes here.
