Jacob Fresco<\/a> pointed me to a bug that I would never ever have found without his help! So thx.<\/p>\n

Hi, first, compliments on the great plugin. However, I do have some remarks. It seems that WordPress 2.1.2 with Wp-Flashbox 1.3 crashes Internet Explorer (=> version 6). When I disable Flashbox, everything works fine.<\/p>\n

In Firefox, everything works like a charm\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 I cannot seem to find the cause of this problem. Any ideas?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Because I have a newly installed Windows XP, I only have IE7, Firefox 2 (my default browser) and for testing Opera (used for testing FlashBox<\/a>)<\/p>\n

So to test this bug I installed Multiple IE<\/a> which makes it possible to install multiple versions of IE on your PC.
\nAnd of course tested IE6: no bugs, no crashes, no nothing, it worked like it supposed to.<\/p>\n

Just to be sure, I tested IE6 today at work.
\nWoooo, that’s an extreme bug.<\/strong><\/p>\n

First you get:
\nPress ok<\/a><\/p>\n

And then you get:
\nOperation aborted<\/a><\/p>\n

A little search on the internet revealed the problem: “Press OK to continue loading the content of this page”<\/a>
\nIt’s the changes Microsoft made to IE in response to the Eolas<\/a> patent lawsuit.<\/p>\n

But I thought SWFObject would fix this? (internet explorer eolas changes and the flash plugin\/<\/a>)
\nBut when I tested the demo pages<\/a> at deconcept<\/a> with IE6 I also got
\n“Press OK to continue loading the content of this page”<\/strong> but not the “Operation aborted”<\/strong><\/p>\n

So there must be something wrong with FlashBox. But before I can find out what it is… I have to know the difference between my home-computer and my work-computer, so I can find out what goes wrong.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
