Hello list - we seem to have resolved the original problem.

Here's an update:

It seems that an 'optional' parameter on SWFObject has now become required, at least for our app. :) Adding the following to our SWFObject code has apparently fixed the issue:

fo.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "always");

It's strange that this only happend in IE7 and not any other browsers, but regardless, I suppose we've finally resolved this issue entirely. (Only until today have we brought Laszlo Systems into the loop, while we've been battling this issue for some time now).

Anyway, thanks to everyone for your help, and here's to making OL the premiere RIA platform! :)

Have a great day!

Perhaps the error isn't what it appears to be. Here's one possible clue, reported by Bruce Cummins in our QA dept (cc'd):

Replicated the error.

Of interest is the error reported by IE7: Permission denied. This can be seen by expanding the error shown in the lower left corner of the browser. After you click on the "Buy Now" button the error changes to "SC' is undefined"

It does work in Firefox 2.


On another note, I've been told there's a more recent function, "LzBrowser.callJS", that uses a different Flash/browser communication mechanism; you could try this instead of the loadJS that you are now using:

http://labs.openlaszlo.org/trunk-nightly/docs/reference/LzBrowser+dhtml.html

These are a few clues. I do think this is likely to be specific to your app, since we have production code that uses loadJS and is not breaking in the field.

And it's just a little past 5:00 here...

The problem seems to be present in an old 4.0.x version we have from a while back as well as the more-recent 4.0.9.1. And remember that the error is most easily reproduced on IE7 with Flash 9.0.115.

Good luck and thanks again for your help.

P.S. With the long weekend upon us, shouldn't you be out of the office by now? :)

Sorry, key question: what version of OL are you using?

Those should work.

David, the problems we're having can be seen at:

Try clicking the "Buy Now" button. In most browsers, this takes the user to the HTML-based Buy Now page. However, with IE7 and Flash 9.0.115, the player "grey screens". In other words, the SWF div fades out, but the HTML div never fades in. This is due to loadJS() failing as described in the aforementioned blog post.

Thanks for your work on this,
-Rich

I haven't recompiled any of the videos on AGD yet. Will those work? or do you actually need to change stuff?

    Scott,

    The nice folks over at Laszlo Systems are trying to get to the
    bottom of these issues.  Could you post the old (e.g.
    greyscreen) player on a test page so we can do a bit of
    experimentation?

    Thanks! :)

    Rich,

    We're not seeing this here. Can you give any more detail, or
send an URL that doesn't work?

    Hey all,

    Has anyone else had any trouble with OL and the most recent
    Flash release?  (Flash Player 9 Update 3, Version 9.0.115.0
    <http://9.0.115.0>)  It seems that any of our apps that
    integrate at all with the browser via LzBrowser are broken
    with Flash 9.0.1115 (in some cases on all browsers, in other
    cases just on IE7, in some cases just on certain web sites...)

    Any input from the community?  This is mind-boggling!

    P.S. Here's a related blog entry (it's a bit verbose, skip
    to the end): http://laszlonia.com/?p=6
