How can I auto play an .swf?

[Dillinger4]

Using <param name="autoplay" value="true" /> fails to work.

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="all" height="346" width="430" data="http://lads.myspace.com/videos/vplayer.swf?">
  <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never" />
  <param name="allowNetworking" value="all" />
  <param name="movie" value="http://lads.myspace.com/videos/vplayer.swf?" />
  <param name="flashvars" value="m=18913506&v=2&type=video" />
</object>

I think it would have to be whoever is providing the SWF file to implement that, because the movie is coded by myspace. Check the myspace help pages for any API they may (not) provide.

If they don't provide anything then you are outta luck. Check google when all else fails.

The following works with non-swf's.

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" height="350" width="425" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/JWVqS-lb254&autoplay=true">
  <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never" />
  <param name="allowNetworking" value="internal" />
  <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JWVqS-lb254&autoplay=true" />
</object>
