embedding flash: This is different than the default code that Flash provides. That typically involves the "embed"-tag and is not valid XHTML. This doesn't use that, and is fully valid. - From http://snippetlib.com/html/embedding_flash
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="your-flash-file.swf"
width="0" height="0">
<param name="movie" value="your-flash-file.swf" />

iPhone calling and texting - The calling one (probably more useful if the clickable text is words, as the iPhone auto-detects phone numbers and does this automatically) and the SMS one, which overrides the default calling behavior. Best for mobile-only sites. - From http://snippetlib.com/html/iPhone_calling_and_texting - DEMO: http://jsfiddle.ne…
