"Seems weird that it would work in all browsers except IE7." That is never weird. IE has never acted the same as other browsers. Always expect to do something special only for IE.

Seems weird that it would work in all browsers except IE7. The only way I can show my code is if I use pastebin, otherwise it says "We were unable to post your message. If you believe this is an error, please contact Google Support". Here's a pastebin link to the code: http://pastebin.com/Tx4XEV93 Thanks for taking the time to help me out, I sincerely appreciate it :) - Rob On Mar 30, 4:14 pm, Aran Rhee <[email protected]> wrote: > The known issues are to do with ensuring the host page and swf file have the > correct security sandbox settings to enable communications.
