well you won't notice it unless it's win xp + ie6 or win + opera 9

It's to do with the way objects are placed on the page. The method used was copyrighted so MS had to change how the browser handles them (so did opera). This all kicked off in April this year when MS lost their court case regarding this copyright issue.

The effect for the end user is that they must click the flash object once before it'll respond to their input.

You may not see the issue on your system. Might be best to get a fully patched and up to date xp with ie6 to do any final testing. it is unfortunatly the target audience.

And, really, thanks for the feedback - much appreciated. And no need to /duck - feedback/critisism is all part of the job.
yes, now that the old grey matter is sparking, this is an opera thing - i seem to remember ie and firefox where fine. so no matter about that then.
