Here is a simple shortcode to include swf in your articles. You just have to give the address of the image (absolute or something that approximates to be relative), and the swf is inserted in your article to its own dimensions. Of course you can change these dimensions through the shortcode. You can also provide flashvars and change the parameters and attributes of the object. You can specify an id and/or class for the html object created.
It use swfObject2 (javascript) for swf embedding in the html page.

<h3>Options description</h3>
or visit <a href="http://asblog.etherocliquecite.eu/?page_id=738&lang=en" rel="nofollow ugc">Plugin Page</a>
eg, swf URL : http://www.monsite.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/monSWF.swf
Define default settings to the option page. Default folder is the basis for relative url. However, if default folder is “http://www.mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/” 
and you want access to “http://www.mysite.com/wp-content/mySWF/myswf.swf”, you can write : “wp-content/mySWF/myswf.swf”.
= ShortCode Simple use=
The parameter to provide to the shortcode is \?movie\?, and accept differents url :
[BB_SWF movie=”http://www.monsite.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/monSWF.swf”]
[BB_SWF movie=”/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/monSWF.swf”]
[BB_SWF movie=”wp-content/uploads/2011/09/monSWF.swf”]
[BB_SWF movie=”/uploads/2011/09/monSWF.swf”]
[BB_SWF movie=”uploads/2011/09/monSWF.swf”]
If the url is not absolute, it always will point to the directory “http://www.monsite.com/wp-content/, you just have to complete.
This also works if the wordpress installation directory is not the root of your site, eg:
?http://www.monsite.com/monWP/wp-content/”
To insert a swf from another domain, or some other directory than wp-content, just provide an absolute url.
= General Settings=
1/ You can provide a width and height for the swf by the parameters width and height.
[BB_SWF movie=”uploads/2011/09/monSWF.swf” width=”200″ height=”300″]
If one of these two parameters is missing it will be automatically adjusted to the original swf size.
2/ You can also specify an id and a class to the object inserted, so you can play with css, by the parameters id et class :
[BB_SWF movie=”uploads/2011/09/monSWF.swf” id=”monSwfId” class=”swfClassEmbed”]
If the id is not specified, it is automatically set to: ?bbSWFId”+name of the swf
3/ You can specify the minimm flash player version by the “minfp” parameter :
[BB_SWF movie=”uploads/2011/09/monSWF.swf” minfp=”10.0.0″]
By default it’s set to 9.0.0

2/ Changing parameters
