One of the "tiny" details is embedding the Flash object. The JavaScript file flashcheck2.js does exactly this, as well as other stuff. For example, it checks whether a Flash player exists (Flash plug-in or ActiveX control), and whether its version is higher than the minimum required by the application.

  mySwf.TGetProperty(timeline, propertyNumber);

  mySwf.TSetProperty(timeline, propertyNumber, value)

  mySwf.TGetProperty(timeline, 16);

  mySwf.TSetProperty(timeline, 16, value);

Rewind | Play | Get HIGHQUALITY | Set HIGHQUALITY

Here is the source code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="flashcheck2.js"></SCRIPT>
<A href="javascript://" onclick="javascript:mySwf2.Rewind(); return false">Rewind</A> | 
<A href="javascript://" onclick="javascript:mySwf2.Play(); return false">Play</A> | 
<A href="javascript://" onclick="javascript:alert(mySwf2.TGetProperty('/', 16)); return false">Get HIGHQUALITY</A> | 
<A href="javascript://" onclick="javascript:mySwf2.TSetProperty('/', 16, 0); return false">Set HIGHQUALITY</A>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
  var mySwf2 = Flash_embedSWF("opener.swf", "opener");
</SCRIPT>
