Paid Accounts OnlyThis requires the use of customview.cgi, which requires a paid, permanent, or early adopter account. If you are a free user, please see FAQ #131: What are the paid account benefits? and FAQ #21: What's a paid account? How do I get one?
A user informed LiveJournal that it is possible to have Flash download a list of variables to pre-fill into text elements in a Flash file. The formatting of these variable=value pairs are the same as in URLs. To accommodate this need, LiveJournal provides a style which does this formatting for you.
S1

In order to use this style, you will need to set it trusted. See the "Guide to customview" for more information.
S2

There is no equivalent system style that provides the variable=value pairs in S2. You can create a custom style that does so. See " How do I create a custom S2 style?" for more information on creating a custom S2 style.

Flash embedding is not available to free users, as it is not possible to create this specially formatted file without the ability to use custom styles.
