Does flash version need to be specified in swfobject?

[Alayna11]

The code I am using was made by the swfobject generator and parts have been added to deal with minimum width and height and add scroll bars etc, plus also flash vars. so I don't want to just generate new code, I want to use what I have. Problem is the code I have mentions flash version 6.0.0.
My question is do I need to change this periodically to reflect the most recent flash player version, ie 11.0.0???
Or do I need to leave it as 6.0.0.
If u want to see the source code I am talking about please view qv-creative.com. Index.html.

Any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks.

The version number in SWFObject tells the browser the MINIMUM version of Flash player the user has to have in order to view your content correctly. You only need to update this number if you publish your swf content from the Flash IDE with features that require a new Flash player (e.g. 3D capabilities in FP11, using actionscript 3 from FP9 etc). If your content hasn't changed, then you don't need to change it. (from what I can see in your page, no changes are required)

e.g. If you needed your users to have Flash player 11, change the following in your page:

//line 56 to :

swfobject.embedSWF("index.swf", "content", "100%", "100%", "11.0.0", false, flashvars, 

// line 59 to:

if (swfobject.hasFlashPlayerVersion("11.0.0")) {
