Yes it is already built into Web Wiz Forums.

You need to enable Adobe Flash from the admin area, once done on the full text editor page you will see a Insert Movie icon in the editor toolbar to add Adobe Flash. You can also use BBcodes to adds Flash.

Bruce,

Thanks for the prompt reply.  I understand that the BBcodes for FLASH works with simple .swf files, but what about more complex <object>?

I want to use the flash audio player (see audio player here) to embed interviews and such.  Is this a possibility with WWF or should I just use a page on my site (where I can use html)?

Thanks,

-Jon

To embed Flash in a web page, including in web wiz forums it is embed as an object. Web Wiz Forums when you enter the link to your .swf file will create the rest of the object code for you.

However, looking at the link you have given it you need to add an extra parameter to the flash movie with the location of an mp3 file. You would not be able to do this in Web Wiz Forums.

The embedding of Flash Files/Movies within Web Wiz Forums is slighly restrictive to prevent abuse by hackers that can hide malicouse code within a Flash file.

Understood.  I suppose I could take advantage of the URL feature and link right to the mp3 file.  Then it would be up to the user's local environment to decide which player to use.

Anyway, thanks for answering my question.  As always you've been very helpful Bruce.

Why not try (if you are wanting interviews, media etc) what we use if you do not wish to use UTube as another obvious source - which is Flash Video MX Pro and is an excellent way of producing SWF files

My focus is primarily on audio (e.g. recorded Skype interviews) rather than video, but I will take a look at the Flash Video MX Pro.  Thanks for the suggestion.

Do you have an example of this in action on a WWF?

MrTWS: That's very nice.  I hope you didn't put that together on my account.  Thank you all for your feedback.
