That plugin is pretty old…it doesn’t work with any version of jquery released in the last 2 years…or probably more.

@Greg
By that, do you mean it didn’t inherit the dimensions of the parent element? That’s it’s default behavior; it checks if specific dimensions have been supplied and, if not, will inherit the dimensions of the element it is replacing.

@chris
I’m not sure if it’s compatible with $.noConflict(). I haven’t had any use for that before, so I haven’t tried. I’ll have a look in the next few days to see what I can find out.

is your plugin compatible in noConflict() mode?

I haven’t tested it thoroughly on older browsers, but this seems to function nearly perfectly with jQuery 1.4.2. I say “nearly perfectly” because I had to specify the height and width of the SWFs I’m pulling in, but that’s trivial. Otherwise, it’s easy to configure, and it integrates beautifully with my other code. Thanks!

No, it’s doesn’t do anything about caching. I don’t really think that’s within the scope of this project..

I can’t seem to reproduce the white rectangle issue. I’ve now tested in IE 5.5, 6, 7 and 8 in normal and compatibility mode. IE 5.5 doesn’t quite work, but IE6 and newer seems to all work.

Hi, does your jquery.flash handles caching problem in IE specifically IE 8? Here is a snippet of my code

$(“#SlideShowDiv”).flash({
width : 400,
height : 300,
src : slideshow.swf,
flashvars : {ID: swfID_LVAR},
classid : ‘clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000′,
codebase : ‘http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=’,
pluginspace : ‘http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer’,
version : ’9.0.24′
});

“slideshow.swf” is a slideshow i made using AS2.0 that gets image dynamically. as you can see, I have one flash variable w/c is “ID”, this variable is controlled by the user through a number of buttons. Basically when one button is clicked the the value of the variable would change and therefore affects my slideshow. This code works in Firefox but not in IE.

No errors at all, just a plain white rectangle. Maybe it’s not including the ‘movie’ parameter?

If you want to test it yourself, you can get old versions of IE (as standalone programs) at http://finalbuilds.edskes.net/iecollection.htm . Gives you every major released version in IE’s history, though I only care about 6+ myself.

Does IE report any errors? I don’t have easy access to older versions of IE at the moment, so any details I can get are very helpful.

I’m trying this plugin out on a web site I’m building, and while it works perfectly on IE 8 and in standards-based browsers, on both IE 7 and 6 I’m just getting a plain white rectangle in place of the video player.

(I’m using it with jQuery 1.4.1.)

Any idea what’s going on?

Thanks!
