hi guys,
I have flash file which accepts data from Javascript using swfObject.js and displays it dynamically(using addVariable). But the problem occurring is it doesn't support all browsers. I have IE 6 and Mozilla Firefox 3 with Flash player version 10 installed in it. I am not able to run the file on it. I can't understand why as the code written in as3 and in javascript is right. Could you suggest some solution?

Just as a thought,

Following are the reasons when you can't see a flash movie.

1. No flash player installed

2. Browser is not having Javascript enabled and noscript tag is removed from HTML published from Flash.

3. Incorrect path for swf is inserted in the HTML page.

4. There is an error at the very begining of the flash file which is stopping it to show properly.

5. Browser settings are disabling object/embed tags.


I am able to see your link in both IE7 and FF3 browsers. So what I think is, in your case the reason is 5 or 2.

I saw your .swf running (using FF3 & IE7) but when I clicked one of the options I get an error:

TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
