[SWFObject] Flash objects not clickable in IE, but OK in FF

[Aran Rhee]

Ryan.
 
The links don't work for me in any browser. (IE6 or FF2). Do they work with
a standard object/embed insertion method?
 
BTW - you seem to be targeting the top frame in your links. This isn't
required if you don't have frames / just want to use the current browser
window. You can either leave out the 2nd param entirely, or specify "_self".


clicker.onRelease = function () {
     getURL ("http://www.languagesystems.com", "_top");
};


Cheers,
Aran

Hello,

 

I have a simple page www.freeenglishtest.net
<http://www.freeenglishtest.net/> 

 

At the mid-bottom of the page are two flash swf's embedded with swfobject.
In FF they are clickable, and if you click you will go to the website which
the swf is advertising.

 

In IE nothing happens. You click, nothing.

 

The swf's are really simple. Each has a button instance "clicker_btn". The
actionScript is typical: "clicker_btn.onRelease = function ()
{getURL(http://www.f1visa.org);}". And, it all works in FF!

 

I am sure that I am being a moron, but what am I missing?

 

Thanks,

 

Ryan
