Flash Embed Plugin

This plugin allows you to embed Flash files. Unlike DokuWiki's built-in syntax, this plugin adds an easy way to add arbitrary parameter or FlashVars. Unlike the similar swfobject plugin it does not require any JavaScript but relies on DokuWiki's own function to embed Flash files in a cross-browser compatible way instead.

Download and install the plugin using the Plugin Manager using the download link given above. Refer to Plugins on how to install plugins manually.

The flash is embedded using <flash></flash> tags. The file to embed, the dimension of the flash object and the alignment is has to be given space separated in the opening tag. Name-Value pairs for the parameters are then given in the body.

Here's an example for a YouTube video:

<flash left 425x344 http://www.youtube.com/v/SMWi7CLoZ2Q>
hl en_US
fs 1
allowFullScreen   true
allowscriptaccess always
</flash>

And an example for a freemind map¹⁾, using the freemind flash viewer:

<flash left 800x400 http://your-server/freemind-viewer/visorFreemind.swf>
initLoadFile http://your-server/freemind-viewer/your-freemind-map.mm
quality high
bgcolor #c4cccc
openUrl _blank
</flash>

Supported alignments are left, center and default. The provided SWF can either be a remote URL or a locally uploaded SWF file. In the latter case just give the ID of the file. If you want to reference additional local media files, prefix the parameter name with an exclamation mark !. Here's an example:

<flash center 425x344 some:namespace:visualize.swf>
title An example visualization
!data some:other:namespace:data.xml
</flash>
