Hi Alexandre,
The problem you're having is because the jquery.flash plugin tries to
put the flash movie inside the element you're replacing. So:
<div id="example">Replace Me</div>
becomes:
<div id="example" class="flash-replaced">
<embed ... />
Replace Me
</div>
Your test page is trying to replace an <input /> element, which can't
contain children. So:
<input type="file" />
becomes:
<input id="example" type="file">
<embed ... />
Replace Me
</input>
and the <embed> gets ignored.
The solution is to write a custom replacement function that replaces the
<input /> with something that allows child elements:
function replace(htmlOptions) {
var $el = $('<div></div>');
$el.addClass('flash-replaced');
$el.html('<div class="alt">'+this.innerHTML+'</div>');
$el.prepend($$.transform(htmlOptions));
jQuery(this)
.after($el)
.remove();
};
$('#example').flash({ src: 'jqUploader.swf' }, { version: 8 }, replace);
(I haven't tested the replace function above, but something along those
lines should work).
Cheers,
Luke

replace input fields. Does any jqGenius have an idea why ?

Hello!
i'm trying to switch the dependency of my plugin to a proper jquery
plugin dedicated to flash embedding instead of swfobject.
Yet i cannot seem to make it work: no error thrown but the element is
not replaced by the flash file.
here is the schematics of what i do:
jQuery.fn.jqUploader = function(options) {
return this.each(function(index) {
$(this).flash({src: 'jqUploader.swf', width: 320, height:
240});
});
};
i've posted a test suite here:
test: http://www.pixeline.be/experiments/jqUploader/test2.php
plugin:
http://www.pixeline.be/experiments/jqUploader/jquery.jqUploader_proto.js
could someone have a look and let me know what i'm doing wrong?
And if you would like to see how it should work:

Thanks a lot,
