swap flash swf source file in html

[ferrerpheonix]

Hi all.

I have a flash file in my page (flash1.swf) When a user clicks on a html link,
i want a javascript to swap flash1.swf for flash2.swf I have looked for days
and have not found a cross browser solution.

I found macromedias dreamweaver extension MM Flash Player Controls, which
comes with "load flash" that lets me do this, but only in IE.

Can anyone help? seems so simple yet the solution is illusive.

I want to do the same thing. Have you found a way to swap swfs?

Is there a way to get an animated gif to look better on a website? I made a
simple Flash animation and when I export it as an animated gif it looks like
kaka on the site. If I leave it as a swf it looks fine. I need an animated gif
because I am swapping different animations when the certain navbars buttons are
clicked.

Any insight would be great.

Don't use javascript. Use a randomizing actionscript. You will find one in the
forum at actionscript.com. I raised the question there and a kind fellow gave
me a terrific solution.
