[SWFObject] SWFObject Digest, Vol 2, Issue 10

The 2880 x 2880 size is the maximum size for a .swf and is
intentional.
I scrolled down and to the right and found the Macromedia
Flash Player Update dialog, but I couldn't click on the
Yes, or No button and the Enter Key didn't work either.
On a hunch, I commented out
//EnhanceLoaderObject.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
and refreshed the page. The button worked and I was able
to install Flash 8.
So, If ExpressInstall.needsUpdate, I will need to either:
a) Set the _x and _y coordinates of the Macromedia Flash
Player Update dialog or
b) Scroll the user's window so they can see the Macromedia
Flash Player Update dialog if
If NOT ExpressInstall.needsUpdate, I will dynamically add
the statement:
EnhanceLoaderObject.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
If it is your code that sets the position of the
Macromedia Flash Player Update dialog to the center of the
.swf, I suggest setting the position to the center of the
user's window, instead. If it is not your code, I will
contact Macromedia and make the suggestion. I will also
inform them about the Macromedia Flash Player Update
dialog not working if the target .swf wmode is set to
transparent.
Thank You VERY MUCH for your assistance. Your swfObject
is outstanding!
