Do I interact with the browser or Plug-in

I am interested in how Flash gets displayed in a web browser
and how much of the interaction and display is dependant on the web
browser.
If you interact with a flash application on a web browser are
you really interacting with the browser first which passes on the
message to the Flash plug-in. Or after an initial set up is all
interaction with the Flash application directly dealt by the
Plug-in where the browser has essentially no idea what is
happening?
For example when I click on a "Skip" button on a flash
animation shown on a web page, am I clicking on the browser or the
Flash plug-in that is installed on the browser?
I hope explained that clearly enough,
Thanks

I'm assuming fireflox with an L in the name is a typo?
If not, can you provide more detail about the plugin? Who is the publisher, where is it installed, what is it for, etc.?
By the way, if you see plugin-container.exe in the Task Manager, that is used to isolate Flash from firefox.exe so that crashes in Flash do not kill your entire browsing session. That's normal.
Regarding extensions, which ones did you disable that become re-enabled on their own? If you don't want an extension, you should be able to remove it. If it was installed by third party software, then usually you can remove it through the Windows Control Panel and/or options in the related software.

  • HT5706 I have not used my apple tv in a few years, and just got it out of the bag. I connected it up, and it cannot set date, time.  it also does not interact with the remote.  Could it be as simple as a new batter is needed for remote?

    I have not used my Apple TV in a few years, and just got it out of the bag to use on a new TV.  I connected it up to power and with an HDMI cable toTV.  It attempts to set date and time and cannot.  I cannot get the remote to interact with the box also.  Could it be something as simple as needing a new battery?

    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable/DSL modem are connected to power and turned on.
    Make sure other devices (computers, iPhone, iPad, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Check your Wi-Fi network settings on Apple TV:
    Select Settings > General > Network > Wi-Fi and press the center button on the remote to display nearby networks.
    Choose your Wi-Fi network from the list.
    If your Wi-Fi network uses a password, make sure you are entering it correctly.
    Restart your Apple TV by selecting Settings > General > Restart.
    Try restarting your Wi-Fi router or modem by turning it off and then on again.
    If possible, connect an Ethernet cable and verify your Internet connection. If you can connect to the Internet using an Ethernet connection, verify that your Apple TV is using the latest software by selecting Settings > General > Software Update. If your Apple TV can be updated, install the update and then try the steps again.

  • I have problem with my Yahoo mail, e-mail take a long time to open (it first opens as a bank page). The provider think is something to do with the browser

    Since a couple of weeks my btyahoo email is behaving strangely. It take a while to load when I enter, and if I click on an e-mail it opens a blank, contentless page. After a while I am eventualluy able to see the content, but it is annoying. BT (the provider) had remote access to check the problem and thinks it is something to do with the browser. They suggested I disinstall and install again. Can you advice? Will I lose all my bookmarks if I do so (I have quite a few...)

    * The first time you start up any application after turning on your computer is called a cold start, which is why Firefox takes a while to load right away. (I've noticed that future versions of Firefox start up faster on a cold start then Firefox 5.0.1.) Also, a lower amount of RAM could be slowing its start-up down since Firefox is kind of memory hungry.
    * As for the second part of your question, press ctrl,Alt, and the delete keys on your keyboard. The Windows Task Manager should start. Go to the processes tab and look for 'firefox.exe'. Right click on the firefox.exe and click 'End Process'. Hit Yes and wait for a minute.
    * Then opening Firefox again.
    Hopefully this helped somewhat!

  • Firefox has trouble initiating, and when it finally does, every time I attempt to interact with the application it stops responding.

    Firefox won’t initialize: I can open any program on my computer except for Firefox so it isn't that my computer is slow. It doesn't open at all no matter how long I wait. I've left the room and let the computer run before and it still wasn’t running when I came back. After a few clicks it finally it comes up, and I have to wait because I’ve clicked multiple times so of course it's going to open multiple times. When I'm online after successfully closing all but one Firefox window so that I don't crash my poor laptop, every time I attempt to interact with the program via clicking a link, opening a new tab, or typing something into the URL bar, the program freezes and goes into the not responding stage. Rarely, an unresponsive script message will pop up.

  • How do I open a raw image with the Photoshop raw plug in as opposed to the Bridge raw plug-in.

    I read in a book on adobe raw that it is often useful to open an image at the same time with the adobe camera raw bridge plug in and the Photoshop camera raw plug in.
    I can open a raw image in photoshop but I suspect I am not actually getting access to the camera raw plug in as none of the controls present in the bridge raw plug seem to be available from within Photoshop.
    Of course I can access bridge and the bridge raw plug in by opening bridge from within Photoshop but this is not what I want to do.  I would like to open the image using the photoshop raw plug in not the bridge plug in.
    Clueless . . . and confused.

    Thanks for the discussion.  It is interesting.  Let me clarify a bit regarding my issue.
    I am using Mountain Lion OSX on a mac, of course, and CS6.  I have been using Aperture, a piece of Apple Software similar to Light Room to organize my images, opening them from Aperture in Photoshop to edit them, as I am both familiar with Photoshop and like the way it does things better than Aperture.  I recently started using CS6 and working with Adobe Camera raw 7, which I think is the version that comes with CS6.  All the info I can get from the web site, including a very nice tutorial from Adobe on camera raw, simply tells me to open it from Bridge.  When I do this, I get a nice set of sliders and other adjustments specifically associated with Adobe Camera Raw and the camera I am using.
    I can open a file in Photoshop using the method SkillRooster suggests and, sure enough, it opens it with the camera raw plug-in (if I simply open the image by double clicking on it it opens in photoshop, no plug-in).  If I then go to bridge and open it from there, I don't get a second instance of Camera raw, it simply points me at the instance opened through Photoshop.
    However, when I open a raw image in Photoshop from Aperture  (raw images open with no problem) I simply get the Photoshop interface, not the camera raw plug-in, the same as if I had double clicked on the image to open it from outside of Aperture.  I am trying to figure out if there is some way to open an image from Aperture in Photoshop so that it opens in the camera raw plug-in.  One possibility I could imagene is to open it in Photoshop and from there open it in the plug-in.  The only thing I see regarding this in Photoshop is a menu item that lets me close the image and open Bridge, which doesn't help me with my Aperture issue.  I could decide to switch to bridge, but with the thousands of images I now have in Aperture, this would be quite a bit of work.  I may just have to work with both going forward.
    The root of my original question comes from something I recently read in a book by Bruce Fraser on Camera Raw which is excellent, but it focues on CS 5.5 as he died before being able to update it.  In that book he describes a trick he uses where he opens the raw image in a plug-in in Bridge and then opens it a second time using a plug-in in Photoshop.  This give him a chance to compare adjustments between the two open images.  As I mentioned above, when I try to do this by starting with Photoshop and then going to Bridge, it points me at the same instance.  I can't open it in Bridge and then Photoshop since once it is open in Bridge, it won't let me into Photoshop without closing the image in Bridge.  I was thinking there might be something in Fraser's method that would help me with my Aperture issue, but can't reproduce what he describes.
    Perhaps this was possible in CS5.5 but no longer  in CS6.
    Another work around I can imagine is to do all my raw editing from Bridge and then save the file as a DNG file in Aperture.  I suspect that after that, I am stuck with doing any more raw editing using the Aperture camera raw funcions, which are a bit lacking compared with Adobe Camera Raw.
    Hope I am being clear here about my dilemma.  Any help would be welcomed.

  • Swf files that scale with the browser

    I uploaded a swf file with dreamweaver as a stand alone window and it works fine.  How do I get the swf file to scale larger or smaller as the user adjusts their browser window larger and smaller?  I would like to get the swf file to scale along with the browser window.  I posted this in dreamweaver but was told this is an action script issue.

    I found a simple solution, and I believe it is what you are looking for.
    1. In Flash, go to File>Publish Settings
    2. Click on the HTML Tab
    3. Where is says Dimensions, select Percent
    4. Though it is probably default, make sure the width and height are both set to 100.
    5. Click ok then go to File>Publish
    Now your movie should scale with the browser window.
    If you do not have Flash, then you can simple work with this sample code below:
    <object width="100%" height="100%" id="xyz" align="middle">
        <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
        <param name="allowFullScreen" value="false" />
        <param name="movie" value="xyz.swf" />
        <param name="quality" value="high" />
        <param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
        <embed src="xyz.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="100%" height="100%" name="xyz"
        align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" allowFullScreen="false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
        pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
    </object>
    Notice how width and height are set to "100%"? That's all you need.

    How to get the extension Info from firefox? Do we have any firefox API to communicate with the browser? I couldnt see the HTML of the widget displayed in the toolbar how to access the widget using JS or any way

    Hi,
    Thanks for the suggestion. I've been playing around with some of the classes of the java.net package and java.io
    Using the URL class i can get the content of the data from a STATIC page and output that response to file so that is does not display to the client broswer.
    But this only works if the URL i give points to a static html page.
    So the problem i'm getting is if i'm righting in arguments in the URL, this means that server needs to process the arguments i give and its sends back a dynamic result. Because its dynamic the URL class can not handle this and throws me an exception everytime :(
    Have u ever tried to do some things like this?

  • Sync an object with the browser scrollbar

    Is there any way to set up a button or group of buttons to move vertically with the browser's scrollbar? I have a region that contains search options for a query and it requires the user to scroll down to access all of the fields. I'd like to cause the "Search" button to move vertically with the scrollbar so the user doesn't have to scroll to view it once he/she has entered the search criteria.

  • Weblogic security authentication; question to interact with the realm

    Hi, I have a quick question about weblogic security authentication....
    We are using weblogic 81sp3. We have user-group info in an Novell eDirectory LDAP server.
    Currently, a Novell Authenticator provider is configured under : Security > Realms > myRealm > Providers > Authentication This tells Weblogic from where to get the user and groups. Weblogic caches this information of the logged on users for certain time ( example : 60 secs ) after which it cleans the cache for all inactive users. We want to interact with the Weblogic cache. Add more user profile information to this cache and use it in our application .
    Does somebody know how to programmatically interact with Weblogic user-group cache - read , write , update and delete user-group info in cache and control time to live for the cache ?

    already checked
    TTLCache class which weblogic provides. But they seem to depracetd it
