John Hjelmstad commented on SHINDIG-723:
----------------------------------------
I'm also curious about the use case. The purpose here is simply to add _some_
ID to get around IE/AS3 interaction limitations. As Tim says, the gadget
developer may assign whatever ID is desired. Also, what's the value in
container control over IDs in an IFRAME? Any inlined-gadget solution requires
an ID management strategy anyway, so that seems orthogonal to me.

>
> ActionScript 3's ExternalInterface methods (e.g. ExternalInterface.call()) do
> not appear to be working in Internet Explorer 6 or 7--a JavaScript error
> occurs when they're called.
> The root cause of this was traced back to the lack of an 'id' attribute on
> the <object> tag used to embed the Flash content in Internet Explorer. We
> need to add in a unique 'id' attribute to the <object> tag to ensure proper
> functionality.
