After installing 5.2 the other day, it seems that one of my sites no longer displays the Flash content properly. (Plugin version 29) Has anyone else had similar problems, or know what causes this so I can save my Flash files differently?

It works fine in all other browsers... Even IE for windows

The trouble I am having is when I click on my name in the red title at the top to reload the frames (take the user back to the main page), the flash in the banner (my name) does not redraw. Anyone getting this problem, or no?

yes, your name isn't being redrawn. I have had the same problem on my site with even before I installed IE 5.2. If you find a solution, I'd love to hear about it.

I'm using IE 5.2 and saw what you were talking about but waited about 10 seconds and it came back. I think it's in the way you have programmed the flash however, i strongly believe its a cache related issue.

Add this tag to your site and tell me if it helps or not.

<meta http-equiv="pragma" content="no-cache">

put it in between the *head* tags.

Set them to default or left, then drop them inside a table and justify the table. Worked for me!
