Sounds like a good way to test to me (using any of the multi instanced IE solutions are problematic)
So the crazy ExpressInstall behavior happens on all pages, or just your test page? If you visit another swfobject page, does it still happen? http://demos.learnswfobject.com/express-install/dynamic.html IE8 and ExpressInstall have been tested thoroughly as working by the SWFObject team (as well as the 1000's of sites utilizing SWFObejct), so I think this will be something about your particular environment (I just can't think of what it might be yet) Aran On Sat, Apr 10, 2010 at 12:06 AM, Lou Klepner <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Aran, > > We've been testing with IE8 running on Windows XP SP2 within a VMware > Fusion 3 instance. > > Our testing procedure has involved uninstalling the FP using Adobe's > uninstall utility, then installing FP 9.0.262 and visiting a page with a > SWFObject 2.2 dynamic embed that requires FP 10 with the ExpressInstall > option. > > Any suggestions on how we might be debug this? > > Thanks, > Lou > > > On Apr 8, 2010, at 7:30 PM, Aran Rhee wrote: > > Hi Lou. > > We have not come across an error like your describing with IE8.
