my questions is :
1.can chrome extension embed swf file that comes with the extension.
2.can chrome extension load files from local drives . like FF extension.

Answer 1

1. Yes.
2. Check out the File API. Note that users will need to manually select the files or folders themselves. If you want full filesystem access, you need to create a native plugin and compile it for all the platforms you want to support (e.g. .dll for Windows, .so for Linux).
