Flash node installation instructions
------------------------------------

3.) Enable user access as required at Administer > User management > Access

Note - flash node uses direct embedding of content. In the short term this will

Internet Explorer. However, this requirement will shortly be removed from IE.

To enable javascript embedding requires the use of the SWF Tools module, but
at this time SWF Tools has not been upgraded to Drupal 6. Once this has been
done then you can optionally download and install SWF Tools to enable script
replacement methods. Installing SWF Tools will also to re-enable handling of
mp3 or flv files via the SWF Tools media players. The latest information on
SWF Tools can be found at drupal.org/project/swftools
