Well, it's different behavior but this loads the flash and then it disappears totally and I"m left with a white screen in my browser page...

I think we may be doing two different things. Mine is a thought experiment that involves the code above. I am not sure what code you are using exactly -- maybe you could include the complete code?I amended my working code to conform to the setTimeout idea. Also, this might be swfobject 1.

Answer 2

+1 A:

Make sure you're setting the Cache and Expires headers in the response. I had a similar issue with a pdf in an object tag, calling the server twice. Setting the Expires header to be 5 seconds after the current time prevented the second call. HTH

A:

This can also be caused by improperly configured CDNs, where they might be not sending the full content or throwing a 206 or other http error.
