UFO - Unobtrusive Flash Objects

/ Published in: HTML

URL: http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/ufo/

Use this HTML to display Flash movies on web pages. This is IE and SEO friendly. Rename the SWF file name to your file name and also rename "ufo-name" to whatever you want. The "ufo.js" file is required for this to work, which can be found here: http://snipplr.com/view/2653/ufo--unobtrusive-flash-objects--required-javascript/

    var FO = { movie:"/swf/name.swf", width:"300", height:"120", majorversion:"8", build:"0", xi:"true" };
    UFO.create(FO, "ufo-name");
</script>

Number 1: This is Brilliant Number 2: I wrote a function that figures out a size that I want the flash to be and I want to change the width and height using that function but when I replace the width:"300" with width:"maxWidth()" or anything like that it does not work.
