Hi, thanks for the feedback on this

But I still have problems and several of my contacts have the same
problem namely the content of the swf disappears when you refresh the
screen under
IE after the recent update.

So basically you say it works fine when you refresh the page, can you
confirm therefore that the following links work, one is the old version
before IE update where it asks for you
to activate the content

this link is the old version and requires activation;

http://www.mackinnonfineart.com/furniture/russian_bureau_old.html

and this one has the new code implimentation but now "fails" to load the
FlashVars on IE;

I appreciate your assistance but just too many of my own contacts claim
they cannot see the content once the page is refreshed.

	Hi Geoff

	here is the url for the page

	http://www.mackinnonfineart.com/furniture/russian_bureau.html

	it works fine in firefox and safari so the variables are being
passed ok, or seem to be, however when viewing in IE as i suggested the
	picture disappears after a refresh

	Hope I am not doing something bazaar

		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.

			Hi - I have a question regarding what I consider
an excellent piece of code, I have an issue with passing variables using
FlashVars, all is OK in Firefox, safari and the likes, however the
problem arives in IE, its fine when i first load my page, i can see
things fine until I do a refresh then the object i am calling to display
in the movie disappears, the swf is still there but no content, when i
remove the call for the content the movie appears. Very odd, is IE
blocking the call for the content?.
			
			
			Before I implemented the change everything
worked great, after the Microsoft update I was getting the "click here
to activate and use this control" hence the need to look for alternate
solutions and I found SWFObjects, which incidentally works great on
basic content which I have on other sites, its the FlashVars thing that
IE seems to have a problem with.
			
			
			Thanks
