Oh. Well... This one, please? :-o I could definately help with testing and
so on... But you're the one and only, divine developer - do as you please.

I mean "reactions" to the resize event of course, not additional events...
What's the word I should be using?

For example, I'm working on a small thing that senses a resize and removes
abundant columns, to avoid the horizontal scrollbar. (It'll just show an
arrow to the right, or something, to have the content available still.) I'd
need the resize event to handle it, and if I would use sIFR at the same
time, it would overwrite the previous handler for the event. Unless, of
course... you could preserve the old event handler, just append the new
stuff to it by wrapping it all in an anonymous function. I think I've seen
that somewhere. Er, in fact, that's how you do the onload handling in
sifr.js... Sorry. I'm slow sometimes.

You can set the dimensions of the Flash in Firebug for example, by editing
the HTML or setting $$(".sIFR-flash")[0].width in the console. So I guess
there's probably a way to make this work, if you can get the Flash to detect
the changes. Maybe just send a refresh command to it or something... How
would you do that? With FSCommand? Or is that deprecated?
