IE trouble

Posted: Oct 11, 2009

Hello

I can see a lot of people writing threads about having trouble with IE6-7-8, but none of the replies to any of the threads have been able to help me.

My page loads without problems in FF, Safari, Opera and seemingly in 8 (untested but rendered fine with this http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer). But it doesn't work in IE 6 and 7.
First i thought it was the video format (mp4) and i converted to .flv, but it is still the same.

link to page:
http://www.simontornby.dk/detour/trailer.html



<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js">
</script>

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="detour.css"/>

<script type="text/javascript" src="flowplayer/flowplayer-3.1.4.min.js"></script>

</head>

<body id="trailer">

<div id="pagewrap">

<div id="player" style="display:block;width:600px;height:338px;"
    href="http://www.simontornby.dk/detour/detour_mpg/detour_trailer.flv"> 
</div>

<script  type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"> 
    flowplayer("player", "flowplayer/flowplayer-3.1.4.swf", { 
    clip:  { 
        autoPlay: false, 
        autoBuffering: true 
    },
    plugins:  {   
        controls:  { 
            backgroundColor: '#000000', 
            backgroundGradient: 'none',             
            all: false, 
            scrubber: true, 
            height: 20, 
            volume: true,
            play: true,
            tooltipColor: '#FF0000',
            tooltipTextColor: '#FFFFFF',
            buttonOverColor: '#FF0000',
            sliderColor: '#252525', 
            progressColor: '#FF0000', 
            volumeSliderColor: '#252525',
            buttonColor: '#252525',          
            bufferColor: '#595959' 
        } 
    },           
}); 
    
</script>

I hope that somebody can help.
thanks
simon

Simon, try changing:


    },            
});  
     
</script>

To:


    }           
});  
     
</script>

It works.
That is, if you don't visit the page more than once. If you reload the page you get a giant loading icon, which is very strange. If I empty the cache it works again. There must be some way around this?

...thanks

It might be related to your testing when trying to get it to work. I'd clear cache, close all IE windows, then visit again a couple of times to see if it acts normally.

Do you get any other JavaScript errors in IE (bottom left corner of status bar)?

If I close and quit and clear the cache, I can see it, but still only once. If I visit the page again, the strange icon is back. There is no JS errors or anything.

very strange

I have the same problem with the giant loading icon.

When i empty the cache (IE7), it works fine the first time, but when i reload, the problem comes again.

Did you find a solution?

I'm new to this but are we saying the comma is what keeps it from working in IE?

The trouble in IE caching system.
To solve it, just put .htaccess into folder with player and put next text to .htaccess:


<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header append Cache-Control "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate"
</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault "now"
</IfModule>

IIS cache control info here:
http://www.iis.net/ConfigReference/system.webServer/staticContent/clientCache

However I believe this is fixed in the latest version of flowplayer 3.1.5.

I'm still having this issue using flowplayer 3.1.5 and IE8. The .htaccess solution didn't work for me either. What else can I try?

Yes, we have the same problem.

IE 8.0 and FlowPlayer Commercial,
sometimes only a black area instead of the FlowPlayer.

If we reload the page, it does work.

Very strange.

Try the below code with cachebusting: true


$f("player", {src: "/flowplayer.commercial-3.1.5.swf", cachebusting: true}, {

Yes, I did try cachebusting, unfortunately
it doesn't help.

We use it with this code:


<script language="javascript">flowplayer("player", "flowplayer.commercial-3.1.5.swf", 
{
cachebusting: 'true',
...

Reply to: » » » » .htaccess file not working, from edge

We did use the method:


<script language="JavaScript">flowplayer("player", "flowplayer.commercial-3.1.5.swf",
{
key: '#$4556d27490ec0ca684b',
contextMenu: ['computix GmbH Videoplayer'],
clip: {
url: "n300_web.f4v",
autoPlay: true
}
});
</script>

Which doesn't work.

After reviewing some suggestions from user EDGE I saw that he suggests a different start of the javascript:


$f("player", {src: "flash//flowplayer-3.1.5.swf", cachebusting: true}, ...

I did change this to $f instead of flowplayer and also the cachebusting parameter and currently it does work at least here with IE8 and Vista. I have to test it today at the office with XP and IE8.

Will let you know later if it works.

Thank you.

Thank you,

This solution did work for me (at least for these 5 last minutes spent to test into differnet browsers).

I just added a htaccess and restarted the server (not sure if it is necessary).
