Uglified swfobject.js does not behave in same way as original

[niciliketo]

Hi,

I am using uglifier as part of Rails 3.1 asset pipeline.

I am also using open_flash_chart which includes a version of swfobject.js
https://github.com/pullmonkey/open_flash_chart/blob/e1c826351ab5c1c1370507d8d0b83789807c65a3/assets/javascripts/swfobject.js

After uglfying, the script does not function correctly in IE, although it does in Firefox and Chrome. The problem relates to the function swfobject.embedSWF

Unfortunately, I am not familiar with the inner workings of swfobject.js - so can't give much insight into what is going wrong. Please let me know if I can provide more information.

Does it work as epected if you minify the code with raw UglifyJS? If it doesn't, please report this to its issue tracker.

A bit more details about what exactly doesn't work is needed. It'd also help to know what combination of JS runtime and gem for JSONification are you using.

In my apps UglifyJS/Uglifier has worked well with swfobject.embedSWF (swfobject 2.2).
