SWFObject Plugin for FCKeditor

Introduction

This is a dialog-based plugin to replace the default flash insertion in FCKeditor (using <embed>) with SWFObject 2 (with the dynamic publishing method, <script>)

Besides generating the code with SWFObject, the insertion dialog allows to set the allowscriptaccess, wmode and allowfullscreen Flash parameters, and the posibility to add any flashvars that you need.

The total time of setting up the plugin shouldn't take you more than 5 minutes, it's really easy and it's all detailed in the installation page.
