Maybe I'm misunderstanding the process, but I was under the impression SWFObject (or its ilk) wrote to the HTML content of the holder (DIV, or whatever), basically reproducing what is in effect static OBJECT code. Upon completion of the HTML write, the object was passed to Flash, which then proceeded to load the SWF.
If the OBJECT code is exactly the same (see my note in my first post about retrieving the HTML output of SWFObject and then creating a stand-alone page out of it), what is the mechanism that causes Flash to fail? It seems to me just about all the work-arounds involve some kind of deferred code execution. Does Flash run prematurely before all of the OBJECT code is written out by SWFO, or is there an in-browser timing error when running JavaScript at the precise moment the Flash object is being created? If the latter, it would seem to me lots of pages would be affected, even without dynamic publishing. Adobe could fix this, but we'll still have to write work-arounds for several years to come. That is, unless HTML 5 removes any need for FLV players! :-) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SWFObject" group.
