Javascript – jquery.flash plugin not working in IE6

flashinternet-explorer-6javascriptjqueryswfobject

I use jquery.flash() plugin to embed flash into my website. The problem is that in IE6 this doesn't work. I tried swfobject (1.5), also, but it gives me (sometimes) some strange errors with n null or something like that, so I decided to use jquery.flash() also. (I use both swfobject and jquery.flash() now)

So, basically, swfobject works but gives me that strange error sometimes (all browsers), so NOT all my flash banners work, and jquery.flash() WORKS in all other browsers, except IE6.

That's frustrating, really.

Thanks in advance

Have you tried jQuery version of swfobject? You can grab it from http://jquery.thewikies.com/swfobject/ and it works out of the box. It implements swfobject 2.2 and I use it quite often. Maybe this will help you to embed flash on your website.

Javascript – Flash inside a scrolling div – IE6 bug

When I'm testing this sort of stuff in IE6, the first thing I do is start removing style information. Begin by removing all the floats and clears from both the parent DIV and children DIVs. If that doesn't work, remove all padding and margins, and give the parent DIV and children DIVs each a width of 100% (leaving in your height of 100px). If that doesn't work, then post back here. If I had to venture a guess I would say it is because none of your DIVs have a width, but that is a wild guess based upon what I know of the "peekaboo bug".

Javascript – the !! (not not) operator in JavaScript

Converts Object to boolean. If it was falsey (e.g. 0, null, undefined, etc.), it will be false, otherwise, true.

!oObject  // inverted boolean
!!oObject // non inverted boolean so true boolean representation

So !! is not an operator, it's just the ! operator twice.

Real World Example "Test IE version":

const isIE8 = !! navigator.userAgent.match(/MSIE 8.0/);  
console.log(isIE8); // returns true or false

If you ⇒

console.log(navigator.userAgent.match(/MSIE 8.0/));  
// returns either an Array or null

But if you ⇒

console.log(!!navigator.userAgent.match(/MSIE 8.0/));  
// returns either true or false
