Not working at all on Firefox 3.6 (Mac)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Linked to Google's CDN for swfobject (2.1 & 2.2) (not at the same time)
2. Used code generator for the script
3. Ran page and the div is not replaced with flash, search the web for
answers and found the swfobject.switchOffAutoHideShow(); solution which
doesn't work.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect the div to be replaced with flash - it does not.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2.1 & 2.2, Firefox 3.6 on Mac (works in Safari and Chrome)

Please provide any additional information below.
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.1/swfobject.js"></script>

    <script type="text/javascript">
        swfobject.switchOffAutoHideShow();
        var flashvars = {};
        var params = {};
        params.wmode = "transparent";
        var attributes = {};
        attributes.id = "banner_swf";
        swfobject.embedSWF("/flash/main_ad.swf", "banners", "764", "141",
"9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);
    </script>

I am unable to reproduce. I visited the pages on the test suite with a fresh 
install 
of FF 3.6:
http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/test_suite

specifically:
http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/swfobject/testsuite_2_2/test_dynamic.html
http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/swfobject/testsuite_2_2/test.html

The swfs displayed as expected. 

I will be making this as UTR / invalid, unless you can provide a link which 
shows 
this is not working.

Thanks for the response Aran - I've downgraded Firefox to 3.5 so I can no 
longer test on my Mac. Maybe it was 
some of the incompatible plugins I had installed.

Thanks for your follow up. I will mark this as invalid for now, but feel free 
to post 
to the list if you have another error come up with ff 3.6, and we will work it 
through.

I've got the same problem : I'm on Win XP SP3 and every animation embed with the
swfobject doesn't work. And good news, after disabling one by on my add-ons, i 
found
that the "Pearl Crescent Page Saver Basic 2.5" is the source of this problem.

Maybe this can help.

I also have this issue

I'm running FF 3.6 on OSX 10.4.11, but this problem popped up since FF 3.5.7, 
using
swfobject 2.2, and the code from the generator. The flash never shows up. This 
is
also true with the 2.2 test suite, however swfobject 2.1 test suite DOES work.. 

also, i noticed the version provided with dwCS4 also works, using swfobject 2.0

not sure what changes were made that might be causing it but it seems 2.2 
specific
and only in ff/mac. i have a basic plugin set, contribute,divx,quicktime etc 
and 3
addons fireftp, pearl crescent & webdev

i compared the generated source (using web developer) between the 2.2 and 2.1
versions of 'basic example' in the test suite, and the working one has
style="visibility: visible;" set, i tried setting this style on page load and it
makes the missing flash appear but the flash movie itself doesn't play still. 
Also
the 2.2 code has an extra object tag generated below the div. 

let me know if that helps, in the meantime, i'll switch back to so 2.1

Same issues here.  Blank page when using dynamic in both FF3.6/win and 
Chrome/win.
Any help would be greatly appreciated :) Works as expected in both IE and 
Safari (win
and mac) Using my pc as a test box running flash player 8 on all browsers- 
express
install works as expected again for both IE and Safari but get the dreaded 
blank page
with Chrome and FF3.6
