My b2evolution Version: 3.3.3

Hi,

Has anyone else noticed issues with b2evo, flash and IE8? I use a youtube plugin and just made my own plugin that displays a flash video and they both seem to not work with IE 8, but work fine in google chrome.

You can see my site at http://www.renostandup.com There is a flash video in the intro post that will not play in IE 8.

please let me know if there is more information that I can give you. Thanks!

hello boneill

I tried that using IE7, the flash wotn display. But using firefox the flash works.

I think you are right. b2evo flash is not working for IE.
try it your self guys

are you sure it is a b2 issue ?
have you tried putting it into a standalone html file and see if it works there ?
it might be an ie issue.in addition to that, try to put it in a regular post instead of intro post.(after these steps we will know exactly where to look for)
(a long shot; could you be using ie 64 bit by any chance and not happen to know that flash wont work in ie 64 bit ?)

Try Videoplug plugin (shipped with b2evo)

See if this object construction works for you

<object data="FLASH URL" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="300">
  <param name="movie" value="SAME URL AS ABOVE" />
  <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
</object>
