Do you have a preloader in you flash file ? (ie are you sure all content is
available before you are displaying it on screen)

Subject: [SWFObject] Occasional Flash elements not showing in browser


I didn't think of describing this problem in these forums until recently
when I realized that this method of writing Flash could be the issue.
 
I use the swfobject to write just about all of my Flash files to a browser.
Let's say I have a Flash movie that has a picture of a car that was imported
into Flash as a .png, some text that was written in Flash and a few other
images imported into my movie that might be .jpgs, pngs, whatever...then I
convert all of these to movie clips, or graphics, or dynamic text fields;
just about anything. Every now and then when I first pull up my movie in a
browser (almost any browser, on a mac or pc) one or two of my Flash elements
are missing. If I have a car and a tree in my movie, sometimes the car is
missing. Most of the time everything is there, but sometimes the tree is
missing. It's like I never put it in the movie. The element always comes
back in when I refresh the browser though.
 
Any ideas on why this might be happening? Thanks.
