    Default Flash forms -- Not displaying in IE

    This is my first foray into flash forms, and I discovered yesterday that while
    they look/work beautifully in Firefox (2.0.0.4), they're not displaying at all
    in IE (6 or 7).

    I'm using it to force the user to input their date in a uniform format, so I'm
    sure there's a non-flash workaround. I'd like to get this sorted out though,
    so my future work with flash can be more involved.

    Code is attached. Please let me know if I can provide further clarification.

    <CFFORM action="index.cfm?fuseaction=Equipment.ReadingAdde d" method="post"
    format="flash" style="background-color: ##ebe2ca;" width="75%" height="80%">
    <CFINPUT type="datefield" name="ReadingDate" label="Reading Date" width="100"
    required="yes">
    <BR>
    <CFINPUT type="text" width="100" name="MeterReading" label="Meter Reading"
    required="yes">
    <CFINPUT type="hidden" name="CopierID" value="#Form.CopierID#">
    <CFINPUT type="hidden" name="Max" value="#Max#">
    <CFINPUT type="hidden" name="LastDate" value="#DateFormat(LastDate,
    'MM/DD/YYYY')#">
    <CFINPUT type="submit" name="submit" value="Add Reading!"> <cfinput
    type="reset" name="Reset" value="Clear form">
    </CFFORM>

    Hardcode your width and height of the flash form and see if that helps/

    Michael --

    Thanks for your help.

    I think I've narrowed the problem down -- it's not that it won't display my
    flash form in IE, it's that it won't display it in a Fusebox environment. I'm
    going to poke over at their site to see what they have to say -- I suspect I'll
    need to upgrade the version of Fusebox that I'm using. :)
