IE, SWF and ASP.Net

Okay, I have this web application. It plays videos. ASP.Net modifies the flash variables so the SWF player plays different videos.

This works on Chrome, Firefox, and Opera, but not on IE.

My guess is, IE recognizes that ASP.Net changed the output, but doesn't load the changes as HTML?

Anybody have other ideas?

I have managed to go around the problem, by adding a CustomSWFPath property, which will let you specify where you want the swf to be used from.
By setting that to a custom path, it will bypass the WebResource handler, and everything will work.I will continue to investigate the original error, but meanwhile you could use the control with this workaround.
I just commited on svn the fix.I've had a difficult time finding a good upload control allowing multiple file selection, so I was glad to have found this. You've done a great job with it. Hopefully I can get over this hurdle and will be able to use it.
