Activate a flash object in the browser

I'm using a flash object in my html and I would like to avoid
the annoying click every time a flash object should be activated. I
know there is a way by using a 3th party program or script
(swobject or something like that) but isn't there a Adobe
Dreamwweaver/Flash way of doing that?

Email links out of Practice Fusion are not active (as they are in IE), which they say is a problem with "something lost in the communication between the Flash engine and the browser". Does anyone have experience with this?

This is a medical records system, cloud based. I use Firefox to get into the system, but any browser would work. Other than this problem, Firefox works fine (better than IE, in my opinion).
Patient demographics include their email, which is hyperlinked and should go right to Outlook (my default email program). This works in IE, but nothing happens on the click when using Firefox as the browser.
I queried Practice Fusion, which replied: In regards to your previous question about the email hyperlink in the patient information, it looks this is not something that can be fixed on our end right now. It is the web browsers' responsibility to handle these types of links, and there seems to be something lost in the communication between the Flash engine and the browser. I apologize for any inconvenience.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

How to display "Image" object in the browser?

can anyone please tell me how can i display "Image" object in the browser?
I have an image object that i retrieved from AS400 BLOB object by using toolbox.jar (for as400 access for java including all necessary classes like jdbc driver, security etc.).
i want to display this object in the browser so i will be able to web-enable my BLOB objects stored on as400.thx...

In your HTML:
<img src="ImageServlet">
In ImageServlet:
Make calls to DB to get your image as byte array and store it in:
byte[] buffer = new byte[imageSize];
ServletOutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
for(int i = 0; i < imageSize; i++)
out.write(buffer, i, 1);
out.close();

Having issues with Adobe Flash player hanging the browser

Having issues with Adobe Flash player hanging the browser.
WIN 7 enterprise 32 bit / Firefox 19.0.2 /
Internal company website keeps giving attached screen shot error, and hangs the browser when error pops up.
Steps taken:
Uninstalled Adobe Flash player with the file “uninstall_flash_player.exe”
Deleted provided directory in instructions
"Copy and paste the following and click OK.
C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash
Delete all the files in this folder."
Rebooted PC and reinstalled the flash player directly from “http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html”
Re launched company website and received same error.
Repeated above steps as well as uninstalled Firefox browser. Even went so far as to remove all profile information to start fresh from all profiles on the laptop with the same results.
Note: The web page will work without the flash player plugin, and my page doesn’t hang the browser. Required to open page in FireFox per company policy.

I'm sorry you're encountering this. Could you paste a few of the most recent report ID links displayed when you go to "about:crashes" in the Firefox address bar?
As for workarounds, the first thing I'd suggest is trying our 11.7 labs release which you can get here: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer.html
If that doesn't help, please try the troubleshooting steps outlined in this FAQ:
How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
In particular, I'd recommend temporarily disabling protected mode (for troubleshooting purposes only) to see if that addresses the issue.
Thanks,
Chris

Very simple javascript will override the IE7 settings, and
allow the flash to play each time, without user intevention.
There's not really another way as far as I know, because this
depends on the user's browser. Anything that would be done from
Dreamweaver would be server-side, whereas the Java runs client
side:
- Underneath the last <object> in your HTML page,
insert the following line of Javascript:
<script type="text/javascript"
src="ieupdate.js"></script>
- create a file called ieupdate.js, with the following
content:
objects = document.getElementsByTagName("object");
for (var i = 0; i < objects.length; i++)
objects
.outerHTML = objects.outerHTML;
- Upload the file to your web root.
Fixed!
Hmmm, my first post on this forum - It's a bit bland. Can't
even add code tags around code. Can't see emoticons without
previewing the topic. Gosh!

Centering the flex object in the browser

I want the flex application always stays at the center of the
browser. Can this be done by modifying the flex builder generated
html wrapper file? If so, how?

Just wrap the swf object in an html <div> or
<table> tag. Then center the div or the table. I use tables
to lay out my swfs even though I'd rather use divs. If I remember
correctly, divs didn't always align the thing properly. Here's a
quick example that you can tinker with:
<html><head><title>example</title></head>
<body
><table height="100%" width="100%">
<tr><td valign="middle" align="center">

</td></tr>
</table>
</body></html>

Flash animation extending out of the SWF movie into the 'non-flash' areas of the browser

Hey Everybody --
So I was on myspace and I couldn't help but to notice that
one of the flash animated ads they were running had butcher knives
(it was for some horror movie) coming out of the movieclip and into
the browser. Does this make sense? Has anyone else seen this
awesome special effect yet? I have been trying to find information
on how to do it, I assume it is new in Actionscript 3 am I correct?
I can't find anything on it, not even a tutorial but then I don't
quite know what to search for either.
Can anyone explain how to do this or know what this special
effect is being called/what I should search for?? Can anyone direct
me to a tutorial or any information at all, I would greatly
appreciate it.
Thanks!

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.

what should i do? i askedone of the. site support centre, they said it should work with some funny other things . talking about the contents of there sites which could work fine on ordinary windows environoment disktops

We don't have a relationship with Puffin Browser, but it is the only viable option for Flash on iOS and Android that I'm aware of at the moment.
You'll need to work this out with the folks at Puffin.

Having to Double-Click Flash Objects in Browser to use

Hello,
Has anyone else experienced the annoying Double-Clicking of
Flash objects in your browser?
In other words, a Flash object will load and play just fine
in my browser, but I have to click it once to activate it then
click again to use buttons.
I'm assuming this might be a security setting for my browser,
but I can't figure it out.
Can anyone assist?

Ok - you really just need to use the search function here -
soon this thread will contain replies
from everyone telling you to search first - because this is
asked literally everyday and often
several times per day - yet, it seems to be the least
searched topic - just google it or search the
forum - been asked and answered several times per day for
months - not flaming, just trying to help
because so often, questions have already been answered here
many times and searching is just plain
quicker.
go here:
http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search?q=group:*flash*&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
(it is the google groups archive of this forum)
and type in "active content"
over 1600 returns.
It is the reult of a Eolas vs Microsoft patent lawsuit that
was top web/tech news just a couple
months ago. Tons of resources on it - search google or
adobe.com or microsoft.com.
good luck

How do I turn off Adobe Flash - too many sites have Flash Advertisements which slow the browser to less than a crawl.

Some pages have 3, 4, 5 or more adobe flash advertisements running at the same time, which slows the browser down tremendously. Then, if you happen to have multiple tabs open, the browser crawls to a virtual standstill, and many times, stops responding at all.
I would like to be able to choose whether or not a page can run flash content - not have it be something that runs all the time for every page, with the only option being to kill the plugincontainer process in taskmanager - which kills even the Adobe Flash items you might want to view; such as a youtube video.
Why is there not a way to turn Adobe Flash off in the browser? I have updated both Firefox and Adobe Flash but nowhere is there an option for turning it on or off depending on your needs.
Can a control be added to the Internet Options, that you can set, to have a page ask before it is allowed to run Flash Content? Having that kind of control would GREATLY enhance the enjoyment of browsing multiple pages.
Any information on how to do this, would be appreciated.

That seems to have done the trick. Thank you.
I guess it would have been too simple for it to have the same name. I was looking for Adobe Flash, whereas Firefox's add-ons manager page calls it Shockwave Flash.
Kind of hard to see an orange when the only label the box has is grape. :)
I truly appreciate your help.

Flash Player 9 + Firefox / Internet Explorer and Proxyserver Settings inside the Browser

Dear Adobe,
according to this document from your Website:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashcom/articles/firewalls_proxy04.html
which says:
"When running within a browser, Macromedia Flash Player uses
the browser's HTTP services to communicate through RTMPT. Since
browsers also support SSL, why not add in support for secure
encrypted HTTPS tunneling? That is exactly what Macromedia did. You
can request an HTTPS tunnel using a third protocol: RTMPS."
it should be so, that the Flash Player (up to the latest
release) that for the RTMPT mode the player should use the http
methods of the browser.
Using the http methods of the browser means, that it should
honour also the Proxy Server Settings of the Browser (it doesn't
matter if that is firefox or internet explorer).
We tested that with our own application, but it looks like,
that flash player in rtmtp net connection mode doesn't honour the
browser settings or using the http browser methods.
It looks more like that, that it creates a self made tcp
socket connection to the fms server, which is correct when you are
not using rtmpt, but according to your documentation, it's not.
Please advice me, how to reach a FMS via a simple (i.e.
Squid) Proxy on port (i.e.) 8080 which is being set in the browsers
settings.
And I don't think the Flash Player is just for private
customers who are using the internet without any proxies.
Thank you very much in advance for your help and your
answers...
If you don't want to reveal the secret, please write me via
my personal email which you can get from my profile.
Thx,
Stephan

patch one to work.
I thought of "back-reving" to the latest Flash 7 player to
see if the issue goes away but I have yet to do that.
Good luck looking for a non-MMX code path hidden upstream of
the offending MMX instruction.
Going back to Flash 7 is relatively easy and you will
suddenly be able to visit places you haven't been in years, but
there are still some sites that will block you unless you have
Flash player 8 or 9.
First use the Adobe uninstaller to clean up which is found
at .
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14157
Then find a copy of :
flashplayer7r61_winax.exe
and run it. That will give you the latest Flash 7.

I've got dotted lines round my flash objects

Hello - if anyone could help me with something, I'd be
eternally grateful!
I'm building a website with Dreamweaver, and it's got several
flash elements, like buttons and pictures.
When I preview the site on my BT browser, everything looks
great - but when I preview it on my IE browser, it's a mess.
When I hover over a flash element, a box of dotted lines
appears around the flash object, and the words "click to activate
and use the control" appear.
When I then click on the object, the box disappears, and I
can then use the buttons etc.
My dreamweaver site is made with tables. The dotted-line box
surrounds the CELL that the flash object is in, rather than the
flash object itself.
I've no idea what this is, or why it only happens in my IE
browser and not my BT one. If anyone can give me some pointers, I'd
be very grateful. At this rate, I'm going to be at my PC all
Christmas Day!
Thanks in advance

From an identical question in this forum about 12 hours
ago...
It's IE-only behaviour as a result of changes Microsoft made
earlier this
year to their browser, regarding how Active Content (Flash,
Quicktime etc)
is handled, after losing a high profile court case.
http://blog.deconcept.com/2005/12/15/internet-explorer-eolas-changes-and-the-flash-plugin/
Background:

If you're running Dreamweaver 8.0.2, the fix is already built
into DW's
interface.
If not, try
http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/
Using the <embed> tag in the HTML code to "embed" the
Flash file in the page
(which used to be the normal way of doing it) triggers the
new IE behaviour.
The 8.0.2 updater calls the same Flash file via Javascript
instead so the
new IE behaviour is not triggered..
Once the updater has been applied you upload the changed HTML
page PLUS the
new Scripts folder, containing a Javascript file, which has
just been
created by the 8.0.2 updater.
Note: DW 8.0.2 does not tell you anything about the existence
of, and need
to upload, the new Scripts folder that it has just created.
You're just
expected to know (or find out). Lazy programming by Adobe.
