predicting/setting object ID in HTML

When publishing to HTML, is there any way to set the value of an object's ID attribute from within Lectora, or at least predict what this value will be?

To provide some context, I have some Javascript code that passes a variable value to a .swf file, but each time I import the .swf into Lectora, it is given a different ID number (e.g., "swfanim39" or "swfanim73"). The .swf is reused many times, but not on every page. When I place the animation at the title level, it seems to have a consistent ID accross all pages, but it would then need to stay at the same location on every page (not an ideal solution) and be disinherited on any page where it is not needed. I'm hoping to avoid having to retrieve all of the ID's from the HTML files after-the-fact; I'm trying to make this thing easy-to-use for some of my colleagues who are less code-savvy.

Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
