dynamically loaded SWFs - dimensions?

Anyone know a way to get the dimensions of a SWF using ruby on rails. Similar php's getImageSize() function that can read swf files.

i know about this for images; jpg, gif, png: http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/805 from How to get image properties - Rails - Ruby-Forum

I need a solution for dynamically loaded SWF flash files that my users will be uploading; without making them enter the dimensions for every swf file. any sort of solution, such as a javascript one would be great....

Anyone? help!!!!!!!!
