Embedding Flash Files

Since Shockwave Flash files are rarely required to be downloaded, the system displays uploaded .swf files as embedded Flash items by default.

Control over size of the embedded media is governed by width and height parameters. You can also specify a minimum version of the flash player required in order to run your .swf file using the minversion parameter. In the example below we have used
[Handler]width=60%;height=700;minversion=9.0.0;style=text-align:center

The following advanced parameters are also available:

  • play
  • loop
  • menu
  • quality
  • scale
  • wmode
  • align
  • salign
  • bgcolor
  • base
  • allowfullscreen

For technical details on these parameters, see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/127/tn_12701.html

Additionally, the parameter style is available which controls the style of the div element which contains the flash movie. Multiple CSS style elements are accepted, but because the semicolon is already used to separate the parameters, a backslash must be inserted before any semicolon within the style - for example style=text-align: center; border: solid red 2px

Note that not all flash players, and all versions of flash players will support all the parameters. If you want to force a .swf file to display as a downloadable file icon instead, just add [NoHandler] to the text field on the file upload form.
