    Business Thread : FLV ok in Firefox,, but not in IE

    Am finishing a site using Cs-Cart. I add movie clips in flv in the description page :

    http://dfidistribution.com/defonce-d...ts-culs-6.html

    In Firefox, the trailer shows and plays ok. In Internet explorer, it doesn't show or play.

    On the other hand, in IE, not in the shopping cart, it does play :

    http://dfidistribution.com/mediaplayer/flash2.htm

    This is the code :

    PHP Code:
    <p align="center"><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" 
    
    codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" 
    
    width="320" height="240"><param name="flashvars" value="file=http://dfidistribution.com/flv/defonce_6.flv" 
    
    /><param name="movie" value="player.swf" /><embed src="http://dfidistribution.com/mediaplayer/player.swf"
    
     width="320" height="240" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" 
    
    pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
    
    
    flashvars="file=http://dfidistribution.com/flv/defonce_6.flv" /></object> 
    
    I really would like it to work in both browser. I am considering to get a new window to open to play the clip; that would solve the IE situation, but if I could do otherwise...

    Player is JW Player 4.1.60



    Any ideas ????
    I know that Asspimple is stoopid ... As he says, it is a FACT !

    But I can't figure out how he can breathe or type , at the same time ....

      ActiveX is blocking the flash, use swfobject to display the flash content. Get the js file from here http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/

      And use this code

      <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>

      <div id="flashcontent">
      This text is replaced by the Flash movie.
      </div>

      <script type="text/javascript">
      var so = new SWFObject("http://dfidistribution.com/mediaplayer/player.swf", "movie", "320", "240", "8", "#336699");
      so.addParam("file", "http://dfidistribution.com/flv/defonce_6.flv");
      so.write("flashcontent");
      </script>

          Placed that code in the description, but did not work ...

          I put back the original code, and your code in this page:

          http://dfidistribution.com/defonce-d...ts-culs-5.html

          No video shows up all .. unless I didn't undedstand the actual code ... Did the site today, so am a bit tired ....

          Just don't want to use wmv files ....

                  That does work in both browser :

                  http://dfidistribution.com/la-bacheliere-21.html

                  In IE, it starts at the second click .... but that is no real problem. Settles my problem.

                  Thanks for that ...

                      another easy way to do it would be to put it in an iframe like so

                      <iframe width=320 height=240 frameborder=0 src="http://dfidistribution.com/mediaplayer/player.swf?file=http://dfidistribution.com/flv/defonce_6.flv&autostart=true&tp=swf"></iframe>

                      change autostart to false if you dont want it to play on load

                        btw i built a little system you might be interested that automagically adds custom intro's or outro' to the video without altering the flv's , its pretty simple , basically using a little htaccess trickery to call the video as a playlist adding a custom changeable intro and or outro

                          IE lost a lawsuit with adobe a couple years back that made flash encounter complications. The dead click issue. The swfobject rectifies that problem.

                          Not sure if it helps yours

                            heres an example of your video using the playlist example i explained above

                            http://ytmnd.webspacemania.com/dfi/p...&repeat=always

                            if you look at the url closely you will see the flv is added into the playlist "on the fly "

                            i.e. any flv can simply be added into the url to create a new playlist with a custom intro and outro

                              nah i think his original problem was just a line break where it shouldn't have been

                                i figured it had nothing to do with his problem, i was just elaborating on the dead click issue with IE
