css & flash issue maybe
i'm thinking this is probably a css issue, but not sure. i have a small flash element in the header, that only shows in IE, not if FF or Opera. the flash plugin is current in all browsers and i can see other flash stuff, just not on this page. here's the html bit:
Code:
<div class="headerImg">
<!-- <img src="assets/images/systems/systems1.jpg" border="0" width="400" height="100" alt="" /> -->
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
WIDTH="280" HEIGHT="110" id="header" ALIGN="">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="assets/swf/header.swf"> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=autohigh> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF> <EMBED src="header.swf" quality=autohigh bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="280" HEIGHT="110" NAME="header" ALIGN=""
TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>
</div>
<img src="assets/images/fsg-logo-hor.gif" border="0" width="421" height="115" alt="Florida State Games" hspace="10" />
</div>
and here's the css bit:
Code:
.headerImg {
float: right;
clear: both;
padding: 0 1em -2em 0;
margin: 0 1em -2em 0;
}
the page in question can be seen here ...
anyone have any ideas?

Your problem has nothing to do with your CSS, its the path you have in your Flash tag:
Code:
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
WIDTH="280" HEIGHT="110" id="header" ALIGN="">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="assets/swf/header.swf"> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=autohigh> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF> <EMBED src="header.swf" quality=autohigh bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="280" HEIGHT="110" NAME="header" ALIGN=""
TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>
Notice on the embed tag you have this for the path
src="header.swf"
when in fact it should be
src="assets/swf/header.swf"
change that it works fine
IE uses the param tag to find the movie, Netscape based browers (Mozilla, Gecko all those) use the embed
