hello all..

i am having an interesting problem and i am hoping someone could help shed some light.
 I have inserted a flash (.swf) header in my skin, it works perfectly if i view the site using firefox, but for some reason it will not display in ie, not in ie 6 or ie 7. it comes up with a blank space, when i hover your cursor over it it says "click to activate and use this control"

If i open only the .swf (i.e http://path_to_swf) in ie it works, so i am pretty sure there is no problem with the header.

anyone have any ideas?

thanks for the help!

Can we see the makeup of your object and embed code?

the skin has an index.htm file, here is the top section of it, it includes the javascript fix for the MS IE updates documented here: http://www.amarasoftware.com/macromedia-ie-solution.htm

even if i try opening the index.htm on my local computer using ie it does not work..

any ideas?

<HEAD><script language="javascript">AC_FL_RunContent = 0;</script>
<script src="AC_RunActiveContent.js" language="javascript"></script></HEAD>

<link href="skin.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<table width="750" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td style="padding: 2px 12px 2px 9px;"><table width="100%"  border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
      <tr>
        <td width="180"><span class="links"><span id="SearchContainer">[SEARCH]</span></span></td>
        <td align="right" class="user">[LOGIN]&nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp;[USER]&nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp;[CURRENTDATE]</td>
      </tr>
    </table></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><table width="100%"  border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
        <tr>
          <td width="12" valign="top"><img src="images/top_left.gif" width="12" height="115"></td>
          <td width="722" align="right" valign="bottom"><script language="javascript">
if (AC_FL_RunContent == 0) {

);
}
</script>
<noscript><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="722" height="115">
              <param name="movie" value="landscape.swf">

Generally not good to include a head section in the skin file because DNN will include it's own, resulting in two head sections.

Here's some working .ascx code I have used previously, perhaps it will clear things up for you:

<script src="<%= SkinPath %>scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

 <td valign="top" align="left" width="650">
          <script type="text/javascript">
          AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0','width','650','height','600','title','Cox &amp; Schepp, Inc.','src','coxscheppnu','quality','high','wmode','transparent','pluginspage','http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie','<%= SkinPath %>coxscheppnu' ); //end AC code
          </script><noscript><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" width="650" height="600" title="Cox &amp; Schepp, Inc.">
           <param name="movie" value="<%= SkinPath %>coxscheppnu.swf" />
           <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
           <param name="quality" value="high" />
           <embed src="<%= SkinPath %>coxscheppnu.swf" quality="high" wmode="transparent" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="650" height="600">
          </embed></object></noscript>
 </td>
