[flexcoders] Is SWFObject ready for prime time?

Mon, 21 Apr 2008 16:10:08 -0700 

I need a simple template for embedding a Flex app such that it takes
up the whole window, no scroll bars, and resizes with the window, and
takes a couple of Flashvars.

I'm drawn to SWFObject because the wrapper code looks so much cleaner,
but the following does not display at all in Firefox 2.0.0.14 on Mac.

I'd appreciate any advice on the current best choice for deployment.

Thanks
