SWFObject 2.0 improves greatly upon version 1.5 by adding some fundamental changes to how the Flash embedding technology works. Instead of having an all Javascript embed, and a HTML backup, there is inline object code to help degrade more gracefully in browsers with Javascript support disabled. Also there is no ugly, cumbersome js code in the body of the HTML – the js is in the header leaving only standard compliant html code in the body. Definitely worth a look.
