[Javascript] getting flash width and height

[Muchacho, Laurent (TWIi London)]

Hi 

One of the way to get the width and height of a flash

let says that your flash tag look something like this 

OBJECT classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000'
codebase='http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.ca
b#version=5,0,0,0' width='266' height='107' id=ShockwaveFlash1>
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE='1.swf'>
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#000000>
<EMBED src='1.swf' quality=high bgcolor=#000000 width='266' height='107'
NAME='home' ALIGN='absmiddle' TYPE='application/x-shockwave-flash'
PLUGINSPAGE='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer'></EMBED>
</OBJECT

then you can do this who will work in ie and ns6 & 7

function flash_width_and_height(){
var oFlashTag = document.getElementById('ShockwaveFlash1');
var iWidth = oFlashTag.width
var iHeight = oFlashTag.height
	alert('width = ' + iWidth + '\nheight = ' + iHeight);
}

you must call this once the page as loaded like in the body or as you like 
BODY onload="flash_width_and_height()"
