I would like to include a flash swf file in a block: I think the proper way to do this is to add a php function to the lib-custom.php file correct? so I would have function phpblock_myfunction() { $display .= "HTML Code to include a flash object"; return $display; } Does anyone know if the above code will work properly as outlined, or do I need to do anything else? Is there a simpler way without having to code a custom function? Thanks

Why not use a "normal" block and put the HTML in there? bye, Dirk

Blaine uses a flash viewer to display jpegs in 4Images and I use one in the Geekary to do the same. The standard flash player lets you zoom and pan, while the one that Blaine released at his site puts a little applet to control zoom. I'll dig up a snippet for you to use and post it later.

Wow, I didnt lnow I could do that... duhh (I pulled a homer simpson) lol Thanks Dirk

Hi, I'm actually a flash Geek (no pun intended), so I can reproduce the Zoomable image slider without a problem so there is no need for you to provide the flash embed code. Thanks, My question was geared more towards the custom function and what I needed for it. Now that I can use a normal block, I think I'm all set. Thanks!
