You really do not need to use javascript, since embedding the video, as
most people do when they want to control the size of it, can completely
avoid this. However script might be yet another option. Many feel that
you should not use script unless you have to, since perhaps 10% of
people turn off script on their computer. Thus more viewers are likely
to see your flash movie if you avoid script as you likely can. Without
seeing some specific code for a page, it is somewhat difficult to
specify all of the small details.

Another thing to consider is just what kind of flash movie you have.
When you encode a flash movie from some other video format, you can
choose several options that are built into the flash movie. For example
the movie can be encoded to start when brought up(usual) or to not show
and not start until you right click and select to start. When encoding
a flash movie, always save a copy of the original video file used for
encoding so that you can re-encode in the future if you want to change
some of the options.
