    The user Cindy Funkhouser reported this.

    She has IE 7.0.5730.11 on a Windows XP system with Flash 9. When she goes to load Gliffy the error comes up:

    It says "Line 227, Char 13, Error:
    "VBFlashVer' is undefined, Code: 0, URL: http://www.gliffy.com/gliffy"

    She could access Gliffy fine in Firefox.

    Chris also notes others maybe be experiencing similar issues with Laszlo

I have the same exact IE version on XP with Flash 9 and don't see the VBFlashVer issue.

The only solution i see out there is to add an 'undefined' check in embed.js. This was an Opera fix, so I'm not sure what the effect would be.

function detectFlash() { var actualVersion = 0; var isIE = (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE") != -1) && (typeof(VBFlashVer) != "undefined"); // true if we're on ie ... } else { // isIE
var vbver = eval('VBFlashVer');

added an 'undefined' check for vbver (which is eval(VBFlashVer)) to make sure its not undefined on line 227
