the easiest (and only way i know) way to fix this is to run the adobe  
uninstaller, then reinstall the flash player.

  </PRE>  <BLOCKQUOTE type="cite">    <PRE wrap="">Interesting - if I try to detect the player version I get the message:
"You do not have the Flash plugin installed, or your browser does not
support Javascript (you should enable it, perhaps?)"

I suspect IE has disabled a javascript control by default....I  
looked at
the options but didn't see anything relative disabled. The player is
definitely there as the swf loads if I bypass the alternate content.

Do you know what option in the browser options dialog would be  
effecting
this? I suspect my users are experiencing the same issue. Thanks.

Yes, it is experienced by everyone who tries the site using IE6.
Can you
please provide the link to your test pages?

Thanks.

have you tried visiting my test pages to see if the swfs show up
there?

if it doesn't show up there, you probably need to update or  
reinstall
your flash player.

I have set up several web sites using SWFObject, and they all act
similarly:

    * No problems in Firefox,; everything works as it should.
    * However, in IE6, users get the alternate content screen
even if
      the required Flash player is installed. If they click to
enter the
      program using the alternate click-through link it plays
normally.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what is the solution.

Many thanks in advance.
