Why doesn't this flash map show in IE8, but it works in Chrome and Firefox?

The flash seems to load appropriately. I see a flash vertical menu on the left side.
The problem is the map. Click the "communities" tab to see the map. Then select the "about us" tab and then the "community locator" map at the bottom. The map doesn't show up sometimes. If it doesn't show up and you refresh, it does show up.
Genesis F5, thank you for the help. Any idea why it is only showing up sometimes? I wish I knew what to do. Your help is very much appreciated.

Try using SWFObject for the map embed instead of the embed / object method since it's also being used to load the top SWF (bookstore).
SWFObject always works
Sorry for being so clueless. Can you show me how the code should look please?
<object id="FlashID" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="640" height="440">
<param name="movie" value="map.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<param name="swfversion" value="9.0.45.0">
<!-- This param tag prompts users with Flash Player 6.0 r65 and higher to download the latest version of Flash Player. Delete it if you don’t want users to see the prompt. -->
<param name="expressinstall" value="Scripts/expressInstall.swf">
<!-- Next object tag is for non-IE browsers. So hide it from IE using IECC. -->
<!--[if !IE]>-->
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="map.swf" width="640" height="440">
<!--<![endif]-->
<param name="quality" value="high">

</div>

PHP Code:<div id="mapcontent"><script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("map.swf", "map", "640", "440", "6");
so.write("mapcontent");</script></div>
I tried this code, but I'm just not sure I am doing it right. Would you mind helping with the attached page? :confused:Quote:

If the problem persists, I suspect the error is with map.swf. As mentioned before, the map shows up if you reload the page.
I think what's happening is the function that builds the map isn't being called once the XML loads. The reason it works on a reload is because states.xml is already cached from before.
I can provide a quote to fix the map.swf application if that's the case.
Thank you for fixing it!!!! Very much appreciated!!!!! :)
