Flash Filter

The basic syntax for embedding a flash file (.swf), flash movie (.flv) or audio file (.mp3) is:
```
[flash:filename.swf]
```
If you would like to override SWF Tools and flash player default settings, you can specify additional parameters. For example:
Flash Filter will accept following parameters:
- params : You can specify values for output inside <param> tags with the <embed> html. Typical values are bgcolor and wmode. Example: params="wmode=true&&bgcolor=#00FF00"
- flashvars : You can specify values for output as flashvars, which become available to the flash player. Refer to the documentation of the flash player you are using to know what flashvar options are available. Example: flashvars="autostart=true&&volume=80"
- files : Optional list of files to be passed, you'll normally define files relative to your Drupal files directory. Example: files="name1=image.jpg&&name2=movie.flv"
- methods : Optional information about how to display the file. The most common usage is to specify a particular media player and thus override the settings page. Example: methods="player=onepixelout_mp3"
WARNING: with params, flashvars and othervars, pass multiple values separated by &&.
