Confirmation of behaviour in IE - yes it did, but now that you have changed content since last time, I can now see the disappearing as you describe.
Warning triangle / script error - yes I do. As you don't have any ExternalInterface methods trying to be called straight away, I don't think this is the issue (unless you are trying to call a swfadress method from within Flash?) I am thinking it must be something specific to your Flash file. Have you tried another swf in place of your current one? Try using the test.swf which cones in the swfobject download. Export on first frame / preloader - There are articles which can help you with this. We try to keeo this forum specific to swfobejct, andnthis is definitely out of scope: Try this as a 101 on preloading http://www.gskinner.com/blog/archives/2004/08/internal_preloa.html Or Google " flash preloader export on first frame" Aran -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of saion Sent: Tuesday, 11 November 2008 7:27 PM To: SWFObject Subject: Re: SWF disappears after refresh (ie 6 & 7) Oh, so it behaves differently on your computer than on mine. On mine, when i refresh the page or enters it without restarting ie, the SWF-movie shows up and then dissapears, as i described in the original post. The XML-file only contains data for the meny on the http://www.dataton.com/index.php?nav=movies page, so its not containing any url for the bg-image. Okay, so when you have enetered the site once and then refreshes it, it shows up as normal, without the background image? That'´s weird. Can you please confirm this once? I guess that you get a warning triangle in the left bottom of the browser aswell, i think the description for the error is something like "Object doesn't support this property or method", do you have any ideas of a solution for this, or what it is that can be causing it? Could it be SWFObject that is causing the problem? Maybe ExternalInterface? About the size of the site, i did not plan it very well from the start, and it got big after a while. Now it is to complicated to break it into pieces and load each and one of the pages separately as need them. The thing about the preloader is that i have checked the "Export on first frame" option for every movieclip in the library. So when i try placing a preloader on the first frame as usual, it shows up after all of the sites content has been loaded. Is there any smart way of making a preloader. A while ago i made a preloader that was depending on the browsers cache. I made a separate flash-movie the loaded the homepage into a Loader-instance, when it was ready, i redirected to the main-page. The thing about this was that safari didn´t cache the swf, to it loaded it twice. I made a script for checking what browser the visitor uses, if it wasn't Safari i placed the loader into the div, else i placed the main site. After a while i removed the loader, thinking i could make a loader in javascript, but i have no skills at all there so i skipped it. Do you have any ideas of how i can make this work?
