It also does a lot of other things, and in a unique execution order. There are any number of variables that could cause it to behave differently than UFO or FlashObject... But now that you mention it, FlashObject works for me too, although my own attempts at dynamically embedding the ActiveX control (using innerHTML or the DOM) result in that lovely "Click to activate" message. Will investigate further and report back.

Hi guys, Looks to me like SIFR is unaffected by this whole debacle. Can anyone else verify? If this is true, there may be something in the SIFR method that we can identify as a workable solution. -tom -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of JesterXL Sent: Wednesday, April 19, 2006 9:51 AM To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] New wrinkle in IE activation issue... How else do you turn a million dollar loss from a lawsuit into a positive via a compeitive advantage? Smart move on their part, although I really dislike how they broke the interweb. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chad Mefferd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Flashcoders mailing list" <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Wednesday, April 19, 2006 9:43 AM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] New wrinkle in IE activation issue...
