There are quite a few things that are standing out as possible being wrong
here.
Try this first. Add
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="sameDomain" />
inside your object tags for your flash markup. You could also use the
term "always" I believe. That will allow javascript/actionscript
access if I am not mistaken.
I would also advise cleaning up your references to sobj in your
functions. You create a global variable reference and then you
occassionally redefine it with your functions. Stick with one method
so you don't get screwed by variable scoping.
I would generally suggest always explicitly defining it locally in
your function. It may be more verbose, but you'll get what you
expect.
i.e. something like...
var sobj
if !(sobj) {
sobj=swfObject.getObjectById('myId');
}
Post back to see if this helps your situation,
Vincent
