     <section title="Flash Feature (gadgets.flash)" anchor="gadgets.flash">
      
      <t>The "Flash" feature provides three JavaScript methods that
      simplify the embedding of Flash-based content in gadgets.
      The feature is enabled by specifying feature="flash" using 
      either the &lt;Require&gt; or &lt;Optional&gt; elements in
      the &lt;ModulePrefs&gt;. The "Flash" feature defines no 
      parameters.</t>
      
      <t>Containers SHOULD support the "Flash" feature.</t>
      
      <figure><preamble>In the partial gadget specification below, 
      we declare that the "flash" feature is required and render a
      remote flash resource within the default view:</preamble><artwork>
  &lt;Module&gt;
    &lt;ModulePrefs&gt;
      ...
      &lt;Require feature="flash" /&gt;
      ...
    &lt;/ModulePrefs&gt;
    &lt;Content type="html"&gt;&lt;[CDATA[
      &lt;div id="container"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;script&gt;
        ...
        gadgets.flash.embedCachedFlash(
          "http://example.org/content/movie.swf",
          "container", 11
        );
        ...
      &lt;/script&gt;
    ]]&gt;&lt/Content&gt;
  &lt;/Module&gt;
