The Problem Flash Detection : Flash Express Install The Flash player displays a gray box and will not respond to mouse-over events in Microsoft Internet Explorer. Essentially ruining the initial user experience of most Flash enhanced websites. Note 1: this behavior is common to all ActiveX controls in I.E. (not just the Flash Player). Note 2: This behavior is intentional on the part of Microsoft Corporation, and is in response to patent litigation.

The Solution Embedding Adobe Flash Player content using SWFObject Implementing the swfobject solution will solve the problem. This is a JavaScript solution that circumvents the "gray box of death". Note 3: The only significant drawback to this solution is that one can no longer make use of the fscommand to execute logic in the browser. This drawback will not impact Macintosh users because the Mac does not allow fscommands regardless. Alternatives include getURL and the External Interface classes. Step 1: Copy the file named swfobject.js onto your webserver. Step 2: Change your markup to reference your new JavaScript file. Step 3: For each Flash Movie within a document establish a unique DIV element and add the following JavaScript code beneath it.
