wvDisplay BlackBox

The wvDisplay BlackBox functions are intended to make it easier (or possible) and more flexible to display text, flash and PDF files on your FileMaker layouts. The BlackBox has two functions, Flash and PDF. The DisplayText function is now a part of the free Lite BlackBox (Included in Reactor itself). Each of these functions provide advanced options to display these components in a Web Viewer.

flashDocument	The actual flash document you want to display in the Web Viewer. This can be a container field, or a URL/path to the flash document.
