I am having an issue with a flash doc that wont load for some reason in Internet Explorer. It works fine in all other browsers, but IE. If anyone has time could you please check it out and let me know what you can find. http://www.skilledgraphics.com/welcome_files/port1.htm There are two flash movies that should load, one is a little butterfly that flies across the screen, if you go to the home page you will notice it works fine there. The second is my logo portfolio. I know the coding on my site sucks, it was made with publisher.
Indeed , it opens in firefox and not in IE. Are you using css or some other code apart from the flash movie. Try creating a page with just one flash movie and then with the other flash movie and see if it works in IE.
Not using CSS, its just whatever code Publisher produces, which i think might be the problem. Ive tried it with the logo movie alone without the butterfly, and it still didnt work, its all weird because it used to work at one time. And im not sure when it stopped.
What application did you use to write your code? To be honest, it's brutally over-saturated with fluff and un-necessary markup; it's no wonder your Flash won't work. I'd recommend you take a look at software designed for websites such as Dreamweaver or other WYSIWYG editors; they'll do a much better job.
I used Microsoft publisher, ill look into dreamweaver, last time i tried messing with dream weaver i got lost. Publisher is very easy to work with.
IE just plain sucks, my flash works with every other browser out there. I checked it out with browsershots and IE is the only one not working, pretty sad
While I agree with that that IE is horrid, I can't fathom trying to debug that code. Anyhow, it looks like you're using an object to embed the SWF. Let's try the very basic, very simple method instead: <embed src="mov.swf" width="629" height="334" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" /> HTML: This, in theory, should work correctly, but it's very basic. I'm assuming you're not shooting for XHTML compliancy and best methodologies anyway.
ok, that worked, but now i have alignment issues http://www.skilledgraphics.com/welcome_files/port1.htm
Looks like you might have cut off an extra character when you replaced the code. Firefox will simply "fix" the code when it can, but IE will just render what it has.
Yeah, it only loaded once, i cant get it to work at all now, i will look at it later, I have to run. Im going to see the future VP of America Thanks for the help though
problem fixed, I just had to add the url to the value, as well as the source. Thanks for all of your help
