IE and Firefox -- AGAIN!

Shelly · Nov 12, 2007

I am still having major problems with getting a Flash file to run on IE. It
runs perfectly on Firefox. On the page there are two Flash files, neither
loads in IE and the page just hangs there.

Here are the calls for each:

<object
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0"
height="205" width="665"
classid="clsid

27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000">
<embed pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
src="library/banner.swf" width="665" height="205"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed>
</object>

and

<object
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0"
height="368" width="450"
classid="clsid

27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000">
<embed pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
src="library/home3.swf" width="450" height="368"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed>
</object>

Please help. I cannot see anything wrong with these.

I put up a stripped down version on www.sheldonlg.com/index3.php

You may need this file or one like it:

data=
"http://example.com/load.swf?Path=http://example.com/myswf.swf"

src=
"http://example.com/load.swf?Path=http://example.com/myswf.swf"

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data=

<param name="src" value="http://tinyurl.com/ypfnqv">

I tracked the problem down. Getting it into this extremely simple code
suggested that it was the swf file that was bad. It was.
