[SWFObject] FO Integration Kit problems

Tue May 9 07:03:24 PDT 2006

well that's interesting... i wonder if the js is executing so fast it  
gets the same lcid?

that should be pretty easy to fix... you could just add a random  
number to the end of it, and you'd probably never have collisions.

var lcId3 = new Date().getTime() + Math.round(Math.random()*100000);
