Title: Success! IE incompatibility
Post by: billy_gates on 23 February 2003, 23:33
I updates my page to HTML 4.01 and it works on every browser I've ever tried except for IE 5 and 6 on Windows.  IE on the mac works great.  Now this may seem good, but seeing how lots of people with IE, will (hopefully) be visiting my site.  And the error with the browser loading Flash.  And since when I finish with the site it will all be flash, It would not be a good thing if Flash could not be loaded on the people left behind with IE on Windows.  Can someone tell me how to fix my <object> tag to work with IE for Windows?

Wow...cool! Your site is W3C compliant, and yet doesn't work in IE. Nice work.

Works on Mozilla 1.2 Win, Mozilla 1.2 Linux, and Mozilla 1.2 Mac.

IE 5 and 6 for Windows will not work on my site.  The site will load, but the Flash never does.  IE on a mac works fine, and I have never tested any other IE's than 5 and 6, but I doubt any of them work.
