I loathe IE, and what developer doesn’t.  Can I get an amen from the choir!?  Anyway, found another useful hack for IE.  When putting Flash content on a site, sometimes the user is required to click the Flash component to activate it.  Annoying, but easy to fix.  For all of you jQuery lovers, here is how to fix it.  (You can laugh under your breath.)

$(‘#flashWrapper’).html( $(‘#flashWrapper’).html() );

So basically you are taking your Flash embed code and adding it back to the div that contains the, you guessed it, your Flash embed code.  Believe me, I laughed when I discovered that this was a fix for this issue as well.  So simple.  So trivial.  But the thing works.
