I didn't yet find it in the jq.flash plugin. Thanks in advance for the info. Where is the .flash function coming from? I didn’t yet find it in the jq.flash plugin. Thanks in advance for the info.

I certainly appreciate your meticulousness - I am the same, which is why I wanted to verify this. Thanks. Okay it’s clear now.

In this case, Flash is only used on the front page, so it is pretty likely many will never need it. Possibly over-optimized to even bother with it, but no big deal. No, that’s reasonable.

Personally I would tend to include those plugins even if not used just because I assume they are downloaded once and then drawn from cache on subsequent pages. Therefore there are no requests made to the server for those scripts. Unless of course the user never visits the page that you did want to use the scripts on, in which case the initial download is wasted. Am I missing something? I see, that makes sense.

To reduce wasted requests to the server, I don't load jq-flash or swfobject on those pages.

On another note, why do you check for a flash object? In what situation could your script run where the flash object is not available - assuming you always include the plugin? Cheers That wonderful terse line could be even more terse:
$(SSS.flashInit);
