jQuery plugins coming soon.

Pretty soon, I’ll be releasing two plugins for jQuery.

They are re-writes of my current javascript extensions to SWFObject. One for full browser flash with a minimum width and height. And an updated version of the MouseWheel enabler for Macs.

I’ve gone for jQuery as I’ve been using it a fair bit recently with jQuery SWFObject, and it’s super easy to work with.

Here’s an example of a full browser flash object, with a minimum width/height. The best thing being that there is no requirement for fiddly CSS to make the full browser view work, the CSS is all implemented by jQuery!

$(document).ready(function () 
{
	// add an extra class to the <body> element for JS-only styling
	$("body").addClass("js");
 
	$.flash.expressInstaller = '_includes/expressInstall.swf'; 
 
	if( $.flash.hasVersion(9.1) )
	{
		var mainFlash = $.flash.create(
			{   
				swf: 'FlashApplication.swf',
				width: '100%',
				height: '100%',
				id: 'FlashApplicationSwf',
				name: 'FlashApplicationSwf'
			}
		);
		SWFAddress.setId('FlashApplication');
		$('#flashContent').html( mainFlash );
		$('#flashContent').fullFlashMinSize( 800, 600 );
	}		
});
