At a wild guess ( since I don't have or use IE8 )..  I'd say that this has
nothing directly to do with SWFTools, more that your Javascript code needs
tweaking.   Checked for typos?

A sample snippet of code may just help us to help you.  Either that or switch
on the revised integrated debugger which I understand is now part of IE8?
