I have an .swf embeded in an .asp page. In order to eliiminate the "click to activate" in IE, I have, hopelessly tried using the SWFObject. I have seen web pages that use some kind of other java script...unfortunately, I am not really a coder, but a mere designer. Could someone help me with this...i would be sooooooo grateful. Here's the code that's there...

Code: 
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<meta name="robots" content="index, follow">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">

	<link href="/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>
<body>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="center">
		  <tr>
		    <td valign="top"  width="766">
				<table  border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
	<tr>
		<td valign="top" width="766" height="206">
						<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="766" height="206">
  <param name="movie" value="/swf/header.swf<% Response.Write (Button) %>">
  <param name="quality" value="high">
  <embed src="/swf/header.swf<% Response.Write (Button) %>" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="766" height="206"></embed>
</object>
</td>
</tr>

Thank you in advance for any and all help on this.

Thank you for your quick response. I have seen the first link (the Microsoft one)so many options... and was just going through the second one...it's all rather confusing to me...I've tried a few to no avail. The problem I think...is making it work with the .asp

Any concrete ideas?

Thank you again
 
This from http://www.amarasoftware.com/flash-problem.htm


To fix the problem, please follow these steps:

1) Just below the last <object> in your HTML page, insert the following Javascript:

<script type="text/javascript" src="ieupdate.js"></script>

2) Add a small .js file to your website directory. You can download the zipped .js file from http://www.amarasoftware.com/ieupdate.zip

If you are curious what the content of the .js file is click http://www.amarasoftware.com/flash-js-content.htm


3) Save this file as ieupdate.js to the root of your website (or where you save your html pages)

4) Upload both files to your webserver, and the problem should be solved.
 
It works...like a gem. Compounded by the fact that it was easy to do. I had been banging my head against the wall for two days.

Of course, I looked at the .js file. Though I don't know what it all means, it looks short and sweet. Right up my alley.

Sharing knowledge is a wonderful thing.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

i'm not quite sure what it does either... something about parsing through all the object elements and reassigning it to the document object model i believe... either way, it works :)
