Flash problem in ie...

[smuts]

Hi!

Why doesn't the following show my little flash-anim in internet explorer? (it works fine in Opera)...

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
 codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
 WIDTH="512" HEIGHT="384" id="movie" ALIGN="">
 <PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="movie.swf"> 
<PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=false>
<PARAM NAME=play VALUE=true>
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> 
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#000000> 
<EMBED src="movie.swf" loop=false quality=high bgcolor=#000000 WIDTH="512" HEIGHT="384" NAME="movie" ALIGN=""
 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>

Thanks in advance / jek

The code looks OK - according to what MacroMedia publishes on their website [macromedia.com].

My first thought was that your version of Explorer might not be correctly associated with a recent enough verion of Flash for your code - but you've got the info in your code that should force the browser to check that and tell you you need an upgrade.

So I'm in the dark right now -- anyone else?

Hi smuts,

Your code is working fine for me in IE6.
Have you been to the macromedia website with IE to download the latest plugin as suggested by tedster.

Cheers

Yes, the code looks ok. Now I have checked it against macromedias own code, and mine looks exactly the same... And since it's working in Opera...

And actually, when I took a closer look, I discovered that a flashwindow with the right size is infact displayed in internet explorer, but the movie never starts...

And if I rightclick the 'movie' I get a menu saying:

--------------------
Movie Not loaded (grayed out)
About Flash Player 6
--------------------

So it seems ie won't load the movie... Any suggestions?

le_gber --> Yes, I have checked my flash version... It was up to date...

I have tried a lot of different ways to present my flash-anims, but none seem to work in ie...

This is the latest one I tried:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" width="512" height="384">
 <param name="movie" value="images/telefonbus/1.swf">
 <param name="quality" value="high">
 <embed src="images/telefonbus/1.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="630" height="520"></embed></object>

Is there anything wrong with the code..?

Btw, it still works in Opera but not in ie...

Topic RESOLVED!

It was the .htaccess file that caused the problem...
