The jQuery sIFR Plugin is an addon for jQuery that makes it easy to replace text in a web page with flash text (sIFR, Scalable Inman Flash Replacement). It gives you a function in javascript to replace text in a web page dynamically with sIFR text, using native jQuery functionality along with the jQuery Flash Plugin.
The jQuery sIFR plugin is fully configurable and can choose how little or how much you want to customize the display of the sIFRed text. It uses jQuery’s native functionality to eliminate the otherwise code redundancy in SWFObject, meaning you get a much smaller filesize and even faster loading.
Requirements: jQuery Framework

It was about time that someone did this (in any framework)
I thought about doing it in Mootools, but never found the time to do so. Kudos to them!
Why is it better than using just sIFR?

I have had trouble getting the correct font-size when using this
I’m using sifr from novemberborn http://novemberborn.net/sifr3
and using dropshadows.
Now I like to use the jQuery Sifr Plugin v2.0 Beta 3 http://jquery.thewikies.com/sifr/
but is it possible to have dropshadows with the jQuery Sifr Plugin v2.0
Beta 3?
