Re: [flexcoders] Re: Is SWFObject ready for prime time?
I just updated an application to use SWFObject 2.0 yesterday. Hopefully when it gets to QA I won't get bombarded by failed browser issues. If so, I'll just switch, so not to big of a deal. Although, trying to remember, I've used SWFObject in a quite a few apps that use ExternalInterface/JS in the past and only had to loop through the dom to deal with IE,. Is it something internal to JQuery that was killing IE? Or B.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Is SWFObject ready for prime time?
We switched over to SWFObject (then FlashObject) when the EOLAS patent stuff first came out, and it worked fantastic. Until we began to use JQuery. Some things were fine, but any page that had a flash object, renedered via SWFObject, would not be able to use any functions of JQuery. Wait, let me fix that statement: would not be able to use any functions of JQuery **in Internet Explorer** (go figure). We saw something similar with a legacy SWFObject call interfering with us using Ext on the same page. This took a little time to discover, and even longer to figure out, but basically SWFObject breaks the DOM in IE. We found that this wasn't an issue when we used the js that Flash bundles in when you compile your Flash movie, so we wrote a wrapper and started using that instead. It's worked flawlessly ever since. Steve "Cutter" Blades Adobe Certified Professional Advanced Macromedia ColdFusion MX 7 Developer _ http://blog.cutterscrossing.com

Isn't CSS wonderful? I found the answer here:

Any general experience reports or comments about SWFObject are still welcome.
