Hello

I think that OpenCms internally do not know *.swf resource type.
In [path to your webapp]/WEB-INF/config/opencms-vfs.xml add
<mapping suffix=".swf" />
into the element
<type class="org.opencms.file.types.CmsResourceTypeBinary" name="binary" 
id="2">
or
<type class="org.opencms.file.types.CmsResourceTypeImage" name="image" 
id="3">

And restart :-)

When you upload new swf file, OpencCms will know the resource type now.
But I do not know how would act the Image Gallery when you set the type 
to image type.
I mean generating IMG element for swf file when correct element is 
APPLET or OBJECT.

We use binary type and having no problem with swf.

Hope this help
