Using query strings works on every browser except IE7

Question

I made this file to pass the variables through the url and
then use aps or java to append the variables either to the
flashvars in ex: <param name="flashvars"
value="'+document.location.search+'" or to the filename in ex:
<embed src="swf/cpk_prod_kids.swf'+document.location.search+'"
width="544" height="397" Both methods work on all browsers EXCEPT
IE7 ???? below is all the Actionscript in the file: in advance
thanks for any and all help!!!!
// variables to hold common info....
aspPage = "cpk_prod_kids.aspx?";
sectionNSub ="&section=products&subs=mtcs";
//watch the commercial link...
wtcLink = "
http://www.playalongtoys.com";
// Product array
//change values to store each file name / location. Add to
the array as needed.
prod_a = new Array;
prod_a[0] = "productSWF/1.swf";// number of products in
array. This feature is currently unused....
prod_a[1] = "productSWF/1.swf";

Thanks for the advice, I have tried Javascript to resolve the
problem. In response to the <object> tag missing, There is
one I just included a snippet of the html code sorry for the
confusion. Due to deadlines I abandoned the functionality of the
script and "dumbed" down the script. Thank you again for the help
