I am using swfObject. Want to see the scripting in action, here is a link to one of our sites www.strunkLp.com this site is using a flash header. It is not the generator content site that I was trying to view in firefox http://www.mikewileyproductions.com Let me know what you think. These sites are in our production environment and have been released to the web. Currently in our development environment we have corrected the problem utilizing the ASP code that I was talking about before.

You are right about the Flash object working in Firefox and netscape, for the first example that I listed, StrunkLP that is a flash hybrid site with a flash header and it displays fine, the displaying issue has something to do with the content that is created and published via generator.

Oh and BTW, I don't use generator as it is a dead technology for the most part, I am simply turning wrenches here at work trying to get the technology to continue to work effectively given the current IE active content turbulence in the WWW...

Thanks,
Chad

  are you using swfobject? or some other js scheme?


  swfobject works fine in firefox/safari/mozilla/opera/whatever - can you post a link to the page?

    Ok so a little researching got me some nifty browser detection schemes and now I am able to see the flash content in all browsers. All we ended up using was some ASP "HTTP_USER_AGENT" and some conditional logic to direct the browser based on browser name, then used the new JS function for IE, and the old way with the <object> <embed> tags for anything other than IE.... works really well.

    Thanks.
