Re: [Flashcoders] eolas fix for IE7
solved: the problem was with a corrupt flash player. i've implemented the fix as you described below, Jason, and i also implemented the swfobject fix. they both work. my computer was on the fritz and ended up passing away this morning and i'm back on a new one and all is working as expected. thanks for everyone's input and responses. matt. - Original Message - From: "Merrill, Jason" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2007 9:52 AM Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] eolas fix for IE7 You might want to try ObjectSwap - http://blog.neo-archaic.net/2006/04/25/objectswap.htm If all you want to do is circumvent the EOLAS patent issue, and don't care about player detection (and maybe if IE7 is hosing Flash player detection, you don't WANT to worry about it :) ), then just write an external .js file which writes out the Flash embed tags into your HTML page.

Just in case you were unaware, there's a forum on SWFObject site where you can research these issues (I'm sure somebody had the same issue you're having at some time) and you can post questions. I think you'll have better luck there troubleshooting your issues. :) ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Re: [Flashcoders] eolas fix for IE7
that code looks fine to me, are you testing this on a web server? IE
has different security restrictions for local files vs. internet
based files, so it's always best to test it on a web server.

even older versions should work fine (i think we were testing it

swfobject.js method and they both work for IE6 but not for IE7.
is there a
different fix needed for IE7?

Re: [Flashcoders] eolas fix for IE7
you don't need anything in the /source folder - it's just there so you can see the code in an uncompressed way, or if you want to modify the expressinstall.swf files. you only need swfobject.js and (optionally) expressinstall.swf On Apr 3, 2007, at 12:48 PM, Matthew Ganz wrote: my foolish mistake. i only had the swfobject.js file and i didn't put the swfobject_source.js file into the 'source' directory as well as all the other expressInstall files that are included in the fix. it's working now. thanks. matt. - Original Message - From: "Adrian Lynch" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Tuesday, April 03, 2007 12:34 PM Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] eolas fix for IE7 I'm using it and it works.
