I'm presuming that you changed the URLs to protect the guilty. :) However, it makes it challenging to really decipher what might be happening in your particular case. However, there are some obvious things that seem incorrect that might be the cause of your problem.
SWFObject replaces a given object on your page with the flash file that you specify. Because of this, in your example below, you need a <div> tag with id="shoes" to serve as your initial content. Basically if you have that div and put inside of it your alt-content that says, "Hey you don't have flash installed", then SWFObject will come along and if the user has the appropriate browser support for Flash will swap out that div and replace it with whatever you define in your SWFObject call. In your example below, you are not giving divs the id, but rather the actual objects, and I believe this is incorrect usage of SWFObject.js in general. If you do a search for code generator SWFObject on google, it should take you to a page that will help you generate the appropriate code to insert your flash. In this case, I don't believe you should be running into any sort of cross-domain issues, but please let us know if switching some of your code around addresses your issue. Just as an aside, it's not clear (to me at least) what you mean by "if you remove the javascript call". Is said call in your code below?
