 * Hello there!
    I have searched for a plug in to embed a flash object into my posts
   but none have worked properly. So I did a very simple plug in that embeds a [valid](http://www.alistapart.com/articles/flashsatay/)
   Flash Object. It is very simple end don’t use JavaScript, so it should work on
   every machine that contains Flash. If doesn’t, you can set an alternative text
   to display.
 * Here is the plug in file:
    [http://www.ianliu.art.br/trabalhos/wp-plugins/EasyFlash.zip](http://www.ianliu.art.br/trabalhos/wp-plugins/EasyFlash.zip)
 * Usage:
    To embed flash objects, just use the `[swf][/swf]` tag. Put inside of
   it all the properties your Flash will have. Some are obligated:
 * data – The path to your swf
    width – the width 😛 height – the height
 * A simple usage example:
    `[swf] data = "your_flash.swf", width="300", height="
   300" [/swf]`
 * **Notice that you must separate the properties with comma.**
    All other parameters
   you put inside the tag will be added as a <param /> tag into the flash object.
   So, to make a transparent background you would do this:
 * [swf]wmode="transparent", data="foo.swf", width="100", height="100"[/swf]
 * So, to make a high quality flash, just add quality=”high” to the tag. You can
   put the properties in any order.
 * If you want to put an alternative message, use the “noPlugin” property:
    `[swf]
   noPlugin="<a href="url">GetPlugin</a>", ...[/swf]` Notice that you can use double
   quotes inside the value, there is no need to use single quotes.
 * The last thing:
    If you don’t want the plug in to parse the swf tags, just use
   DONT_PARSE word inside the tag: `[swf]DONT_PARSEdata="foo",...[/swf]` will generate`[
   swf]data="foo",...[/swf]` in your post.
 * Thats all. Suggestions, bugs and feedbacks are very welcome! Send to my email:
