I've recently updated the code for Flash objects for my website so the
background behind the object would be transparent. Since doing this, every
Flash object in Internet Explorer loops. They do not loop in any other browswer
such as FireFox or Opera. Below is the code I'm using for each Flash object.

<object classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shock wave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#ve
rsion=6,0,29,0" width="205" height="80">
<param name="movie" value="../Hurtle/files/logo.swf">
<param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><embed
src="../Hurtle/files/logo.swf" quality="high"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflash player"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="205" height="80 bgcolor="#000000"
loop="false" wmode="transparent"></embed></object>

You'll notice I ever have 'loop+"false"' in the code. Why is Internet Explorer
not recognizing the command to not loop the animation and is there something I
can add or take away from the code to get it working properly? Thanks in
advance.

The LOOP happens to be often ignored, not just due to WMODE. It is best to simply place
stop(); action on the last frame of the timeline to stop it from looping. Do not rely
on the object embed tags.
