To clarify.
With swfobject 2.2 it never seemed to work in IE7, or it might like
once in a blue moon.
With swfobject 2.1 it works if, after the initial view, I close the
browser and try to view it again. Refreshing on the initial view does
not solve the issue.
I have not yet added the Security.allowDomain("*") call. Will do that
and follow up. Thanks for the links i'll check them out.
