    [F8] Why can't some people see this site? I've receive some complains about IE

    Hello everybody, I've recently updated this website and I've receive some emails from some poeple taht use IE telling me that the screen just stay white and that the website never download completely...I've tried it on many computers and can't find why? could you help me?

    I guess it can't be about the swf and that it must be something about the html page but i'm not sure at all.


    this is the website:

    They probably dont have the correct flash player, i suggest putting a link on your landing page to the flash player.

    Use swfObject to embed your Flash in your html it is a much better solution than the standard object/embed code which can cause you probelms in IE 6 or older versions.

    http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/

    swfObject can also do the Flash Player version check for you and show the visitor what you want based on their version or if no Flash Player installed.

    So, this is what I have....

    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="es" lang="es">
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
    <title>Francesca Di Bonito</title>
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="#ffffff">
    <!--URL utilizadas en la pelÃ*cula-->
    <!--Texto utilizado en la pelÃ*cula-->
    <!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->
    <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="100%" height="100%" id="1" align="middle">
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <param name="movie" value="1.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="scale" value="noscale" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><embed src="1.swf" quality="high" scale="noscale" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="100%" height="100%" name="1" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
    </object>
    </body>
    </html>


    And this is what you think is better.....could you have a look on it just to see if I've modified all the things that need to be modified...

    I am using swfobject 1.5.1, this is how my page is setup.
    Be sure swfobject.js is in the same folder as the 1.swf and your html page:
    Maybe this will work for you:

    Code:
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
    <head>
    <title>Francesca Di Bonito</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
    <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
    <style type="text/css">
    html {
    height: 100%;
    overflow: hidden;
    }
    #myContent {
    height: 100%;
    }
    body {
    height: 100%;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    }
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <div id="myContent">
    <h1>Alternative content</h1>
    <p>
    <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"><img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player" /></a>
    </p>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var so = new SWFObject("1.swf", "Title", "100%", "100%", "9");
    so.useExpressInstall('expressinstall.swf');
    so.addParam("scale", "noscale");
    so.write("myContent");
    </script>
    </div>
    </body>
    </html>
