We are working on contribution pages, there we created widgets..which we are using it for the promotion of contribution pages on our site.
All widgets are rotated in block on the page, which are working fine with Firefox, Safari but breaking down on the IE6 and IE7,
So is there any solution for that ...!!!
Why is it breaing down?
The code generated by civicrm for widget is as follows
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<div style="text-align: center; width:260px">
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.maplight-kss.com/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/Widget/widget.swf" width="220" height="220" id="civicontribute-widget" align="middle" codebase="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" >
<param name="flashvars" value="serviceUrl=http://www.maplight-kss.com/sites/all/modules/civicrm/packages/amfphp/gateway.php&contributionPageID=3&widgetID=1"/>
   <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
   <param name="allowFullScreen" value="false" />
   <param name="movie" value="http://www.maplight-kss.com/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/Widget/widget.swf" />
   <param name="quality" value="high" />
   <param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
   </object>
</div>

We tried with classid parameter for IE, that time it is working fine with IE and Safari but breaking down on Firefox....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<div style="text-align: center; width:260px">
 <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="220" height="220">

could you continue your experiements and check the code for other widgets (like ChipIn) and come back with code that works across all 3 browsers.

Most of the core team does not have access to IE all the time and hence its slightly harder for us to do these experiments (and yes, we do know that IE has the dominant market share)
