When try and access a page I have created with internet explorer composed of
html with an embed .swf there is a white box that one has to click to then
access the normal functions of the .swf. Is there any code to make it so this
extra click to access the embeded flash does not have to happen? It does not
happen in firefox or safari. :smile;:sun;

Oh god .. here we go again .. Obviously someone has been living under a rock
or on a deserted island for a few months :)

This is due to Microsoft IE changes required to avoid infringing the
(stupid) EOLAS patent. It applies to all Active-X control that can interact
with the user.

If you are viewing a web site, you cannot really do anything to fix it,
except complain to the web master

Here is a link to find information on how to fix your website to cope with
the Active-X active content changes:
