I have to load the flash after the rest of the content on my page
due to an awful IE bug. This is a JavaScript thing, not so much a
Flash thing, but here's a stripped down version of how you do it. This
will wait until the page is entirely loaded (images and all), and then
run the function that is listed in the "onload".<br>
<br>
<br>
<html><br>
<head><br>
<script type="text/javascript"><br>
function on_load() {<br>
//Add SWFObject loading stuff here.<br>
}<br>
</script><br>
</head><br>
<body onload="on_load();"><br>
<!-- HTML content goes here --><br>
</body><br>

Hi
<br>
<br>
I'm in no way an advanced flash user and I'm new to swf object. I have
a particular behavior occurring and I wonder if anyone would know the
reason.
<br>
<br>
I have a page (it's just in development at this stage) that contains a
relatively small flash movie. It loads and functions fine the first
time the page is loaded, but when I navigate to another site and
return to it there is a moment in which the flash appears before the
rest of the page's content. Sometimes the previous page's content is
still visible 'around' the flash then is replaced by my page's content.
This occurs to varying degrees in any browser on both mac and windows.
<br>
<br>
My question is: Is there a way (javascript?) to have the entire page's
content load and then once done the flash is loaded - or for the flash
to be loaded at the same time as the rest of the content?
<br>
<br>
(I did some searching but no luck - I did find the FOUC issue but that
seems to only happen on IE on windows and its not really the same
issue).
<br>
<br>
Thank you for any input
<br>
<br>
