Can anyone please tell me why the following code works for Firforx but not for IE? Both the Firefox and IE have flash player version [COLOR=Magenta]\*\*9,0,47,0

\*\*[/COLOR]

```auto
function goFullScreen()
{    
    Stage['displayState'] = 'fullScreen';    
}

function offFullScreen()
{
    Stage['displayState'] = 'normal';
}

btn_GoFullScreen.onRelease = goFullScreen;
btn_GoNormalScreen.onRelease = offFullScreen;

```

I hv also included the \*\*[COLOR=Magenta]allowFullscreen=“true” [/COLOR]\*\*code in the object/embed tags in the html. But still it works for Firfox only but not for IE.

Does the fullscreen functionality require some specific settings/updates for browser also?
