Hi all,

I have a flash movie embedded into a page and the problem is that it wont load everytime. This is the code that I use to embed it:
<!--[if IE]>
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0" width="854" height="464">
<param name="movie" value="Castlerivers.swf" />
<!--><!---->
<!--[if !IE]> -->
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="Castlerivers.swf" width="854" height="464">
<!-- <![endif]-->
<param name="loop" value="false" />
<param name="menu" value="false" />
<p>Please download <strong>Flash Player</strong> to view content.</p>
</object>

The URL is: www.chieftain.ie/castlerivers/plans.php

When you go there and the movie wont load, if you hit f5 or the refresh Button it loads fine. I put in a piece of javascript that forces the page to refresh after it first loads, and that seemed to do the trick, but I got back into work after the weekend and there was a few messages to say it wasnt loading into certain browsers.
I dont think its a browser issue as the fault is consistent on every browser ive checked and I dont think its a problem with the .swf because if you load the url for the .swf file into the browser it loads everytime.


Also Ive tried embedding it in different ways to see if that is the problem but the fault remains.

I am completely stumpped and Im under pressure to get it resolved. ANy ideas?
