For what it’s worth, Google has been databasing the text within SWFs for quite some time… try search term “filetype:swf contrary evidence” to test. (This was the purpose of the Flash Search Engine SDK release a few years ago.)

But aqs always, good HTML titles, metadata, and inbound links play a larger role in top-list placement than does body text alone.

Obviously I tried this out and I stand corrected on my last post.

So, Google does read swf files let that be clear.

Now I wonder does google also check the php/xml files which are used to access information through flash.
