View Full Version : Just one out of several flash files fails in IE7 & Safari

I'm using several flash buttons for my navigation. I used modxcms (http://modxcms.com) to control the content, and then pass the link_text and link_url to the flash buttons using flash vars.

Modxcms has a navigation builder that I have templated to embed my flash navigation buttons using swfobject (http://code.google.com/p/swfobject). I also have one custom button at the top that goes up one level depending on where you are in the site. This one is generated by my own function, but uses that same swfobject embed method.

Everything works perfectly in Firefox; but IE7 and safari fails to load the flash backButton (top of nav on left). Instead I'm left with the html content that is normally replaced by swfobject.

I'm losing my mind over this. I have rewritten everything several times and can't figure out why it won't show up in safari or ie7.

One of the pages in question is: http://mbdentistry.com/site/ourservices.htm

Any help, please?!

Ok, I tried to directly cut and paste the output from swfobject (the actual <object> embedding of the flash file) right in to the page.

Still works great in firefox, and now works good in safari, but IE7 just keeps showing the page loading circle and nothing happens.
