IE 6 & flashes

[AIXFinder]

On IE 6.0, flashes are behaving as if they're links when you hover the mouse over it with the message, “Press SpaceBar or Enter to activate and us this control”.

Is there a way to remove the behavior?

thx

yes, you need to embed the flash content or this will happen with any flash swf.

I have three flashes on a page.
In that case, what do I need to do?

Use the swfObject and 3 div...

<div id="flashcontent1">
This text is replaced by the Flash movie.
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("movie1.swf", "mymovie", "200", "100", "7", "#336699");
so.write("flashcontent1");
</script>

<div id="flashcontent2">
This text is replaced by the Flash movie.
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("movie2.swf", "mymovie", "200", "100", "7", "#336699");
so.write("flashcontent2");
</script>

Etc...
