A quick post for all you poor people who may encounter the same issue I do. I found a solution through Google, but it was in French. Hopefully you can find this in English.
I was testing out the Dewplayer flash mp3 player on our sister blog, you-phoria, but it wasn't working in IE. Here's the markup that I used, generated from the Dewplayer homepage. Can you see the issue?
<
object
type
="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data
="/mp3/dewplayer-bubble.swf?mp3=/mp3/07-STS9-Mobsters.mp3"
width
="250"
height
="65"
id
="dewplayer"
name
="dewplayer">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="dewplayer-bubble.swf" /> <param name="flashvars" value="mp3=/mp3/07-STS9-Mobsters.mp3" /> </object>
Yup. I put Dewplayer in a different folder but only updated one of the paths, the data attribute. It still worked fine in Firefox and Chrome, but in IE it appeared to never finish loading. *facepalm*
