Dimensions of an SWF file

[Anthony_john5]

Is it possible to check the dimensions of an SWF file located on the server. I now know that it is possible to do this with images through:

$location = '/home/www/teenonyM/scripts/wip/images/';

$pic_size = getimagesize($location . $filename);
$pic_width = $pic_size[0];
$pic_height = $pic_size[1];

However this same method does not work for .swf files. Is it possible to work out the dimensions of .swf files on the server?

ive never tried that and my flash experience i havent refreshed in quite a bit. but since swf files are vector oriented i dont think there is such a thing as a n actual dimension - isnt that usually determined by the <embed> tag?

Whilst you're sorta correct in saying that. When you make flash files you do set a dimension, much the same as image files, that would be there 100% size dimensions. So in a way they do have dimensions and it is important that I know what they are. 🙂
