EOLAS is company based arising out of UCLA that claim that Microsoft (and us) are violating one of their patents by embedding active content in a web page.
In response, Microsoft have changed the Internet Explorer browser to behave significantly differently. Want to see it in action... Download a BETA version of IE7, or apply recent updates to IE6 for XP, and attempt to view embedded content such as Flash or Quicktime. Help at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/912945 http://www.eolas.com http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/ Our developers have started using Javascript to embed flash (a very nasty work around) as well as using the noscript tag to embed the Flash (just in case someone happens to want to view the Flash but doesn't have Javascript enabled). Our justification... The interruption to the users experience, having to click on each flash movie before they can interact with the flash, far outweighs the cons of the workaround. -----Original Message----- From: listdad@webstandardsgroup.org [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Persson Sent: Thursday, 18 May 2006 9:52 PM To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Subject: [WSG] flash activation border??? is it a XP problem Hello guys, I have seen something weird lately in flash productions where i have a activation border in the flash published in the website. have anyone of you seen it otherwise I am getting it at this website http://www.rosoli.gr I guess it is a XP problem, it does not appear in MAC tiger...
