    Hello All,

    This one's been bending my mind lately, and I'm at my wits end trying to get it to work.

    Here is the page live on a testsite. Just to see if it works. It works on Firefox but in IE it looks like it's there but just endlessly loads.

    Here is the code I have set up for the flash.

    
    <!--[if !IE]> -->
    <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
      data="../Flash/04Matrix213715.swf" width="550" height="475">
    <!-- <![endif]-->
    <!--[if IE]>
    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
      codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
      width="550" height="475"><param name="Matrix213715" value="../Flash/04Matrix213715.swf" />
    <!--><!--dgx-->
      <param name="loop" value="true" />
      <param name="menu" value="false" />
      <p>Flash Images for Our 04 Toyota Matrix XRS</p>
    </object>
    <!-- <![endif]-->
    
    Code (markup):
    Could anyone be so kind as to point and laugh at my mistake and let me know how i might be able to fix it?

    I would be ever so greatful! Thanks!! :D

    I don't know why you are making such complicated code. You don't all thos <!-- IE.... blah blah blah.
    The following works in both FF and IE7/6

    <object width="" height="" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" class="pipe" data="themes/….swf">
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <param name="movie" value="themes/….swf" />
    </object>
