The following code is NOT rendering a swf from a remote webpage hosted from IIS7 in IE9 but does so in Chrome and FF.
What am I missing?
File: http://srv.ab.com/page/swftestpage.htm
<script type="text/javascript">
(function () {
var object = document.createElement('object');
object.setAttribute('width', '300');
object.setAttribute('height', '250');
object.setAttribute('classid', 'clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000');
var param1 = document.createElement('param');
param1.setAttribute('name', 'movie');
param1.setAttribute('value', 'http://srv.ab.com/test.swf');
var embed = document.createElement('embed');
embed.setAttribute('src', 'http://srv.ab.com/test.swf');
embed.setAttribute('width', '300');
embed.setAttribute('height', '250');
var param2 = document.createElement('param');
param2.setAttribute('name', 'wmode');
param2.setAttribute('value', 'transparent');
object.appendChild(param1);
object.appendChild(embed);
object.appendChild(param2);
var container = document.getElementById('myDivID');
while (container.firstChild) { container.removeChild(container.firstChild); }
container.appendChild(object);
})();
</script>
The correct attribute on the <object>
tag is classid
. You have clsid

I would seriously just use SWFObject's dynamic publishing instead of re-inventing the wheel here
