Does anyone know a work around for the audio bug using streaming video via Flash Com?

You know the one where playing the video and hitting the IE 5-6 back button allows you to STILL listen to the audio after leaving page ....

I hear this is a IE problem ... I hope there is a solution that you all know about .... PLEASE! For now, we are screwed. At the present moment, this crap bug is a hinderance to your streaming video technology.

    Sounds to me like you're using a javascript to get around the activeX enable problem.

    The problem is that with many of the javascripts for writng in Flash movies, the activeX object isn't shut down when the browser navigates to another page. The latest version of SWFObject (blog.deconcept.com) is supposed to address this issue.

    I probably should have mentioned ... I have tested the last version of SWFObject and it DOES NOT solve the problem. I verified that the updated code for the fix is in there ... but it doesnt kill the audio.

    I would post an example, but we do not launch the site until tomorrow ...

    Funny you should mention the fix that doesn't work. I tried it a couple of hours ago, and as you already found... no love.

    I have found that just writing lines with .js (rather than doing the innerHTML rewrite) seems to work okay.
