The swfobject.js is a popular way of embedding Flash content to web pages recommended for example by YouTube. Now this integration is available as a GWT-based Java API as well as a server-side API for Vaadin.

If you want to use the swfobject.js API from a GWT component you only need to use static functions in the SWFObjectJSNI class. For normal Vaadin use consider using the SWFComponent.

This add-on Includes swfobject.js version 2.2.

Note: SWFObject requires also the Widget RPC add-on.

Sample code

Resource res = new ClassResource("myflash.swf", this);
SWFComponent flash = new SWFComponent(res,"400px","300px");
flash.setFlashVar("myvar","sample-value");
mainWindow.addComponent(flash);
