Although Flash applications did work in all of my browsers, I did have the erroneous version 9.0.115 installed for IE while I had the version 10.0.45 installed for the other browsers. After updating, the Flash version numbers show up correctly now. Thank you.
My page following the http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/swfobject/testsuite_2_1/test_api_create_remove.html example finally works correctly also. After numerous traces, I've finally realized and learned that the JavaScript switch statement (which I've utilized along the way) uses the strict equal comparison. Learning something new everyday! =] Thanks for the prompt reply, Aran.
