[SWFObject] SWFObjects handling of FlashVars for IE browser

[Geoff Stearns]

so just to clarify:

you load a flash movie that has flashvars passed in

in IE, if you hit reload, the flashvars no longer show up inside the  
movie?

Can you go to my SWFObject test page and hit refresh and see if the  
vars don't show up anymore?

this page:
http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/swfobject.html
has a string of text passed in - you can see it printed out saying  
"this is passed in via flashvars..."

hit reload on that page and see if the string still shows up.
