Hi guys, I have a theory that seems to explain everything.
My guess is that although I *thought* my site was running swfobject 2.2, it was actually running swfobject 1.5. This is why all the old-style code was running fine. Then, somehow I upgraded the site to swfobject 2.2 and everything broke. When I returned to swfobject 1.5, it ran fine again. So .... user error :-) Thanks for all your feedback/questions, they were greatly appreciated! I will upgrade the site properly to swfobject 2.2 soon.
