Get a Gumbo Prerelease build and see if those HTML templates use SWFObject and 
how.

Subject: [flexcoders] swfObject and deep linking





I am using swfObject to embed my application and running into some issues when 
trying to deep link via the BrowserManager class. I am able to update the URL 
when needed via setFragment(), however the issue occurs when the back/forward 
button is pressed. The application does not update as expected. This ONLY 
occurs when using swfObject. If I use the default HTML generated by Flex, 
everything works fine. I searched Google and found that there have been some 
issues with deep linking when using swfObject. I tried all suggestions without 
any luck. Here is the code that I am using to embed as well as deep link:

    !--  BEGIN Browser History required section -->
    <link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='history/history.css' />
    <!--  BEGIN Browser History required section -->
    <script src='history/history.js' language='javascript'></script>
    <!--  END Browser History required section -->

    <script type='text/javascript' src='swfobject.js'></script>
    <script type='text/javascript'>
                var flashvars = {};
                var params = {};
                params.menu = 'false';
                params.wmode = 'transparent';
                params.allowscriptaccess = 'sameDomain';
                var attributes = {};
           ! ;     attributes.id = 'AllProperties';
                swfobject.embedSWF('AllProperties.swf', 'flashPropertyContent', 
'770', '400', '9.0.124', 'expressInstall.swf', flashvars, params, attributes);
                swfobject.addLoadEvent(loadEventHandler);

                function loadEventHandler() {

                        BrowserHistory.flexApplication = swfobject.! 
getObjectById('flashPropertyContent');
 ! ; & nbsp;             }
    </script>

Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue is appreciated.

Thanks.
