[FIX] IE Embed Objects (Clicking twice on objects)

Posted: Tue Apr 25, 2006 12:53 pm

*grumble gumble* Wish I could attach files.
Raven if you want to change this when you see it go ahead.

This is to fix the recent MS patch which causes object to be clicked on twice. See this site
If you dont know what I am talking about then you either have not patched your system recently or are not using IE (good for you Wink

)

This means sites with flash, videos, or anything else that uses embed to work now requires 2 clicks before you can use it. To combat this there have been a number of fixes using javascript. Problem is most of them either cause a memory leak or crash IE for Mac. I found one that does not cause either.

So this fix will use javascript to fix all objects on your page, and all your themes. I have tested it an it looks good. Its an easy fix to apply.

Since I cannot attach files I am linking you over to the Evo site.
Fix can be found here

Let me know if you find any problems.

I assume this is what you are talking about related to Flash and ActiveX controls

Upgraded the script to help fix a number of problems with it.

The biggest issue is with window.onload being called more than once will screw up everything. To combat I have also included an onload buffer script as well as the correct way to do window.onload, which seems to be a problem with some scripts Sad
