swfobject provokes blank page in IE 7

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. place the swfobject 2 <script> tag your html document
2. (try to) open the page in Internet Explorer 7
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should work. Instead, you get a hung blank page. Only by reloading do
you get the page and the flash video. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
swfobject 2, Windows XP (version 2002, SP3), EI 7.0.5.7.3

Please provide any additional information below.
This is a known bug in IE 7 - see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933006
Knowing that, who would want to risk using swfobject??
Better <embed>, whatever W3C says.

SWFObject + IE7 should work fine. This issue could be caused by so many things, 
can
you post a link to a test page?

The bug is in IE 7, not swfobject, but a lot people use IE7.
