- Which extension do you use for the flv files ?
- I use simplix, does this mean that I'm a simple guy ?

I am not sure but I just copy and paste the embeded code provided by youtube into HTML editor. Also I use Elixir2.0.
You have to desactivate your HTML editor before pasting the code. - Yves

Check this out:

IE has error but FF and Flock are fine.
Let me know what you discover as I need to remove this youtube from the site fast to prevent this error.
Thanks.
PS - Yves, by seeing the URL above, I think you've got your answer.

Abel,
I tried adding the same youtube video in my dev site and I am not getting the same error.
this is what i embedded:<object width="425" height="350"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WfO8mGjXoe8"></param> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WfO8mGjXoe8" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed> </object>
and is working perfectly with ie using the same template. http://joomladev.alain.info/ (just don't mind the site.)
i suspect that there is another extension in you site that is causing this. i don't have other extensions installed in this site though. try disabling extensions to isolate the issue.
EDIT: Now I do, sorry will continue to check why...
ADDITIONAL EDIT:
this is what I got from your site when I did a view source, I don't know if this is what you really inserted in your content.
<object width="425" height="350"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WfO8mGjXoe8" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> <embed width="425" height="350" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WfO8mGjXoe8" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent"></embed> </object>
Without the closing tag </param> fails in ie...
As what YVes said,

Thanks, Alain.
I pasted this code (taken from youtube):
<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WfO8mGjXoe8"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WfO8mGjXoe8" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
And it changes by itself into this:<object width="425" height="350"> <param value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WfO8mGjXoe8" name="movie" /> <param value="transparent" name="wmode" /><embed width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WfO8mGjXoe8"></embed></object>
Why?
Now I don't understand what you mean by deactivating HTML editor. Can you explain?

- Okay I managed to deactivate HTML editor and pasted the code again. I checked the code and it's the same as what I copied from youtube - this time no changes to the code. But IE still has error showing, same problem.

now this comes back the extensions installed in your site, there could be some conflict happening.
what you would want to try if you really want this video in your site is try to disable some of the extensions that appears in this page. maybe all and then enable them one-by-one. with this you will be able to isolate the issue. that if it works without all the extensions that includes modules as well.
give it a try worth knowing what causes it.
