Flash movie in portal works in IE but in FF doesn't work
Hi,
I have small flash movie that works fine in Internet Explorer but doesn't work in FireFox. I have two movies one references the other i.e. head.swf and tail.swf. In head.swf there is a reference to tail.swf. It works fine in IE but in FireFox only head.swf shows but the referenced tail.swf doesn't come up. Here is the code I used in HTML:
<OBJECT codeBase=http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0 height=166 width=744 classid=clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000>
<PARAM NAME="Movie" VALUE="/movies/head.swf">
<PARAM NAME="Src" VALUE="/movies/head.swf">
<PARAM NAME="Base" VALUE="/movies/">
<EMBED src="/movies/head.swf" QUALITY="high" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="744" height="166"></EMBED>
</OBJECT>Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Embed Flash Movie Code not Working...[MySpace]
OK...
Attempting to stream a Flash movie on my myspace page.
I've inserted myspace's (Neko's) code:
[code]<embed src="
http://www.myserver.com/somefilename.swf"
width="420" height="315">
</embed>[/code]
& my own...as created in Dreamweaver for another of my
sites:

quality="high" pluginspage="

type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420"

</object>[/code]
...which is very similar to what myspace creates for the user
when Neko's code is inserted & submitted...
...but so far...not only do they
not work...ALL of my regular tables disappear...they're
gone.
Any ideas as to why this is happening?
Thanks,
mark4manFigured this out...
halfway, at least..
It's the size; & buffer time (for some reason.) In the
time it takes for my PC, at my connection speed (Verizon DSL,
downloading @ 2850 kbps) to BUFFER the movie...it blanks everything
out...everything...no tables, no default music player, no SnoCap
store, no nothin'...for 8 minutes. Then, all is there...looking the
way it was designed, including the movie.
I need to figure out why this is happening (which shouldn't
be happening.) Everything else should be there, up & in
place...& the movie should just drop into the slot when the
buffering is complete, correct?
Thanks,

Please check http://www.syus.com for an example. There is a Flash movie underneath the main navigation. The main navigation has a jQuery mouse event, and when you mouse over a button in the main navigation, the Flash movie re-starts. I can confirm that this happens not only on Flash swf files, but on standard <object> YouTube embeds.
Ok, I promise this is my last post without your help. I did some more troubleshooting and it only seems to happen when jQuery appends elements to the body that were previously invisible. In other words, I can simply change the css in jQuery from using element.css('display','inline'), but if I try to use something like slideDown or other jQuery tooltip functions that append and/or remove elements or style definitions it causes the "object restart" bug.
It is impossible for any developer to eliminate this bug without changing the actual source of jQuery, which I can't do. My only other option is not to use sophisticated show/hide jQuery elements like drop-down menus and tooltips on the same page as an embedded object, but I don't want to do this since Safari, Chrome and even IE (dear God) users won't have a problem with this. I think this is a major major bug that should be fixed in Firefox 4 as more and more sites will be looking to use the latest jQuery plugins. -

Thanks! I appreciate the help!Hi Brubble,
IE 6 launched an update a while back which causes this to
happen, or a box appears around your swf when viewed in your
browser - so this will be the case for IE 6 and upward. There
should be something similar to this (or it will be):

Flash movies stop after a random amount of time,
The problem that I am having is that flash movie files (Every website) play for a moment or two and then stop with the little “loading” symbol turning endlessly in the center of the screen. Flash movies used to work with no problem but over the span of the last few months it went from not working well to not working at all. In a perhaps related problem sometimes downloads will stop after a certain length of time and also seem to “hang” at a random spot. If I pause the reload and then restart it the program or whatever will usually finish downloading. This doesn’t happen often but does happen. The flash movie thing, though, happens every time – no matter what browser I have tried. (Firefox, IE, IE with no add-ons, and Chrome anyway.)
I have tried solutions that I have found all across the internet, including the Adobe and Microsoft forums, to no avail. I have unloaded flash with the Adobe uninstaller and reloaded flash. I have tried various flash releases – with and without a firewall on. I have made sure that I am using the 32 bit version of IE and even tried running everything in “administrator mode.” I’ve upgraded every driver that I can upgrade. I’ve used a registry checker as a last resort. I even used the Dell partition to return my computer back to the condition that it was in when I bought it and that didn’t change anything either.
Everything I have tried has made zero difference. In the hopes that someone will have another idea for me to try I am putting all the stats for my computer that I can think of below.
Qwest internet running at 20mbps
Flash 10.1.102.64

Answering your questions...
Have you had a Virus and if so what Anti-Virus program removed it?
No virus that I am aware of
Since you have a Dell, McAfee came pre-installed? Did you remove it prior to Installing MSE? If so, did you use the McAfee Removal Tool or just remove it from Control Panel/Programs & Features?
My computer did come with McAfee which isn't on my computer now. I used a program called "Decrapifier" that removes unwanted preloaded software that comes with PCs.
Is McAfee still Installed?
No
Do you have any Anti-Virus/Spyware programs other than MSE?
No - I have just used MSE until now. I thought about using AVAST but was't sure what running 2 virus/spyware programs would be like.
Since MSE doesn't have a Firewall, do you use any Firewall other than Windows? If so, which?
I use Windows Firewall. I have tried both adding Youtube as an allowed program and switching the firewall off enirely with no luck.
Do you use a Router? Is it Wireless?
I do have a Lynksys router that is a little older but I've also tried hooking the modem directly to the computer.
Is Qwest wireless?
I use the wired ports and not the wireless for my connection.
Other than IE8, what browsers and versions are Installed now?
I only have IE8 now. I never reinstalled the other browsers after using the Dell partition. I prefer Firefox so having to use IE is frustrating.
I've also used "RegestryBooster" to make sure that my regestry looked okay.
Thanks again for taking the time to answer. I think you are right about me doing too much - LOL -
Flash player update not working on MAC 10.6.8
New Adobe Flash loads correctly, says it worked but I can't find the flash player and I keep getting the message that I need to load the udpated player in Safari. I uninstalled the old flash player, restarted the computer and downloaded several times, but it still does not recognize the new player. Where is it on my MAC?

IE does not display my flash movie
Hello fellows, I am having a huge problem with MIE. It does
not displays the flash object embed! Firefox works fine, but IE
doesn't!
Here are the codes:
quote:
Code made by me:
<object width="757" height="153">
<param name="movie" value="/script/top.swf"> <param
name="quality" value=high>
<param name="play" value=true> <param name="bgcolor"
value=#0000000>
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
<embed src="/script/top.swf" width="757" height="153"
wmode="transparent">
</embed>
</object>
The funny thing is that I use almost the same code to display
another flash movie and it WORKS for the second!!! Why is that? The
Firefox displays both of them fine.
I tried a second code:

When I use the code above it returns to me an error on line
215, but my file has only 196 lines! And if I count the included
javascript, the possible lines are commentaries. The Firefox works
fine.
What is wrong with IE?
See ya!

"odebase"? should be "codebase"
Use the tags generated by Flash when you publish to HTML and
things should
be fine. Don't try to do it yourself unless you are an expert
(and even
experts don't just typ in tags themselves .. they copy and
paste from
previous html they have that works)

Export to Flash with embedded QT or Flash video - can it work?
Is it possible to have an embedded video (either QT or Flash) in a Keynote '08 presentation and export the presentation as a Flash SWF file? I have tried saving the video in different QT and Flash formats then export to Flash using Keynote, but when I view the exported SWF file, the embedded video doesn't play. I'm unsure if it's not possible to do this or if I'm doing something wrong.
Thanks.
LoriNo, this would have required Apple to build a Flash video encoder engine into Keynote's export module. You'd think if it was already a flash movie, it would work, but it doesn't, so assume they just didn't bother building in support for embedding flash movies into a flash export.

Pausing Flash movie on focus lost
Is there any way thru ActionScript to detect the loss of
focus at the Flash movie level, eg. browser minimize or selection
of another window, I would like to auto-pause my game at this
point. I managed to create a reasonably effective solution using
event handlers within the EMBED and OBJECT tags in the HTML but I
would rather have my Flash movie do the work, onBlur and onFocus
don't behave particularly well across different browsers anyway.
Thanks,
Ronny.quick answer - no!
Might be possable from the right click menu, but your down to
the mercy of the way the movie is structured internally. -
Need Your Help with Loading SWF into another Flash Movie!
Hello,
I have created TWO Flash movies. They work just fine
individually, but I get problem when I put one into another one!
The main Flash is a Menu and the second one if a Photo Album.
The Menu is series of animation (Moving Objects) which finally
comes into rest and create the menu. The photo album is another SWF
file which is called with in the first Flash Movie (The Menu). The
SWF file is loaded as follow into the Main Flash.
MovieClip.prototype.drawRect = function(x, y, w, h) {
this.beginFill(0xFF0000, 100);
this.moveTo(0, 0);
this.lineTo(0+w, 0);
this.lineTo(0+w, 0+h);
this.lineTo(0, 0+h);
this.lineTo(0, 0);
this.endFill();
this._x = x;
this._y = y;
this.createEmptyMovieClip("mc6", 6);
mc6.lineStyle (3, 0x000000, 100);
mc6.drawRect(-77, -17, 20, 20);
mc6._xscale = 100;
mc6._yscale = 100;
loadMovie("photoAlbum.swf", mc6);
Problem arises when I click on the Play Button of the
photoAlbum.swf (Photo Album) since the execution of the play button
causes the Flash starts once again from the beginning of the entire
Flash Movie (Beginning of the animation creating the menu) and it
simply jumps into the Firm One of my Flash Movie.
Could you tell me how I can isulate what is in layer 6 (Where
the photoAlbum is loaded to) from the rest of my Flash Movie?
I hope I managed to explain my problem. I would like to take
this opportunity to thank you in advance for your help.
Cheers,
BabakHello Anya,
I have realized the problem arises from the Wait Function
which causes the Photo Album to pause for a period of time (Two
Seconds) once a Photo is fully displayed (I have Fade in/out Photo
Album). I realized everything works OK once I remove the function
and rather left the Photos to be flipped without any pausing (This
is an Auto-loading Album which simply Flips the photos!).
Here is the Wait Function which is causing all the trouble.
function wait()
stop();
var myInterval = setInterval(function ()
play();
clearInterval(myInterval);
}, 2000);
Thank you so much for your help.
Cheers,
Babak -

Suddenly all movies won't work in Safari
Suddenly all quicktime or flash movies won't work in Safari. Just has the Quicktime logo with a question mark in the middle. I have the latest browser for Panther. What's the deal? It's a bit annoying seeing as I make films myself and can't test my uploads to You tube and so on. Help! Please.
Same problem here. My extended problem is every time I re-install Flash Player, the movies work fine - UNTIL I need to exit Safari or shut down. When I bring it up again, the Question Mark is back. Also when I repair permissions the page just fills up with Flash Player Repairs. Looking for a pattern, I am now repairing permissions each time I re-install and my G4 iBook AND Intel duo does the same extensive repairs with each install. Help?

Flash Movie works when testing, but not in application
My flash movie works when I "Test Movie" within Flash 8 or
when I press F12 and open it in the browser, but it only show the
dynamic text, not the pictures when I place it within my page. The
dynamic text changes properly but no images are displayed.I suspect this is where my issue lies, but I am not sure how
to fix it. I have attached some code that defines the image
location. I am able to successfully retrieve documents with the
following, is this the same type of scenerio,

Flash Movie Works in Preview (Ctrl+enter) but not in Published
Hi All-
I hope somebody on here can help me out. I'm not sure what else to try. I have a flash project that I have been working on for a while, today its stopped functioning properly. To be clear. It still runs JUST FINE when I preview it (CTRL+ENTER), but when I publish the file and run the SWF file, or the HTML file the movie no longer functions properly. Specifically any ActionScript from the main timeline seems to no longer be functioning. ActionScript contained within movie clips continues to function properly, but nothing else.... .
There is about 400 lines of code right now (variables, functions etc.) but if there is some where specific that I could provide I'm more then happy to. Thanks for your time and help.
Regards,
NathanNo, its in the same directory that it was before....
I am not sure exactly where the problem is, but I am fairly sure that it has something to do with the flash player installed on my computer + the flash player installed by CS4....
The SWF file runs properly when I host it on a site, but locally there is some type of conflict that causes all kinds of problems...
If it helps:
Windows 7 ultimate 64
Flash CS4
Flash Player 10.0.32.18
If there is more info I can provide that can help you identify the problem please let me know, its rather frustrating.
Cheers
