Flash movie not loading when browsing secure site

6 comments Posted by: Laura

I installed the secure certificate, browsed the website with all the browsers I have, everything worked fine. But guess what, I missed one small section of the website when testing it with IE. Since I don’t use it, I never noticed anything. I got a call from the customer saying that it was not working, but only when using IE. What? Flash not working with IE? I am used to CSS not working in IE, but Flash?

Making a long story short, the fact was that the movie wouldn’t load under https, but would load fine under http. I finally found that all the files under that directory were not getting cached thanks to the content expiration setting in IIS, and that, combined with SSL, made IE not able to load the Flash movie.

Changing the content expiration setting from “immediately” to a small period of time solved the problem.

Have been having trouble with flash content not showing up in internet explorer but only on a windows machine. Tried the java fix for new active x update, but my problem is bigger than that. I get nothing at all, but remember only in IE for windows. Can't make any sense of flash content not appearing at all for IE. Would love some suggestions on this problem. Thanks.

I've got a blank screen occasionally when loading the Flash Form. I've list the records in a html table. The strange thing is it loads the flash form (movie) from most of records (when you click an update link) but just won't work for one or two records. Can anyone explain this and point me out how to fix it?

Thanks,
George

When I reload and I see a small player sized window (like an iframe) in the page with my 404 page in it. I’ve created my audio folder in the root directory and this happens to the included test.mp3 as well as my own mp3. I can’t figure out what I’ve done wrong.
