 * Hi,
 * I am trying yo write my first plugin where it will look in the content of a post
   for the {charts 1.xml} and replace with a javascript snippet
 *     ```
       <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
   
       	<div id="flashcontent">
       		<strong>You need to upgrade your Flash Player</strong>
       	</div>
       	<script type="text/javascript">
       		// <![CDATA[
       		var so = new SWFObject("tock.swf", "stock", "800", "400", "8", "#F9F9F9");
       		so.addVariable("path", "");
       		so.addVariable("settings_file", encodeURIComponent("1.xml"));
               so.addVariable("preloader_color", "#999999");
       		so.write("flashcontent");
       		// ]]>
       	</script>
       ```
   
 * I know how to replace {chart} into what I need but I can’t think of the best 
   way to replace {chart 1.xml} where I can put whatever file I want.
 * Thanks for any advice in advance
