QVCS Unable to Checkout SUO files
I used QVCS a while ago and need source control again, so I’m a returning user.

This is a test of embedded flash in a WP page.
This is more text in the post after the Flash.
And yet more text in Bold.
The key to having this work without messing up the WP theme is to surround the object tag in a div tag.
