So last night I was trying to embed the flickr gallery 'swf' from my post yesterday. But I was having some serious issues with either Bad Behavior or Akismet stripping away my javascript when trying to embed it directly in my post. So I was forced to find a different/quick workaround. Solution was Kimili. Its a simple wordpress plugin that makes embedding flash easy as:

[kml_flashembed movie="/path/to/your/movie.swf" height="300" width="300" /]

So no more worries and it even makes use of SWFObject if you desire. Big thanks to the guys who built Kimili! Great work!
