My apology to all my readers who use IE to surf the Internet last weekend. I have fixed the homepage and am still fixing tonnes of other pages which have YouTube embed. For quite a long time, YouTube embed never had a problem until last weekend, users using IE 6.0 and IE 7.0 have been having problem going into my site. The error message that was shown is “The Internet Explorer could not open the Internet site…”, “Operation aborted”. Firefox seems to work fine, though.
Thank god I found a solution.
Existing YouTube embed: -
<object width=”425″ height=”355″><param name=”movie” value=”http://www.youtube.com/v/xe1TsLVOiY4&hl=en”></param>
<param name=”wmode” value=”transparent”></param><embed src=”http://www.youtube.com/v/xe1TsLVOiY4&hl=en” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” wmode=”transparent” width=”425″ height=”355″></embed></object>
Change it to: -
<embed src=”http://www.youtube.com/v/xe1TsLVOiY4&hl=en” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” wmode=”transparent” width=”425″ height=”355″></embed>
Problem fixed. Just remove the top part and leave the embed part. Remember to remove the </object> in the last part.
Anyone else experiencing this issue with their blogs?

Google, as usual, changed it logos for the occasion while Yahoo! uses an animated Flash that will turn both it’s “O” into recycle symbols when you mouse over it while a plant will grow besides the letter, “Y” when you mouse over the logo for the first time.
If you realize, besides Google and Yahoo, YouTube has also changed its logo purposely for Earth Day. Seems like more and more web sites are creating awareness for Earth Day this time around.

Happy Birthday, Google! Google turns 10 on September 15, 2007 but is already the heart of the Internet. Oddly, the news is brought to you by Yahoo! News.

Good afternoon. Student shooting is very common now in the States. The theory is, anything Canada can do, United States must do better.
