AP with Flash movie displays up or down 8 pixels

I've finally got my website up, with a flash movie (swf) of a
slideshow. It looks incorrect in DW (CS4), the movie is too low,
but displays correctly in Firefox and Safari (mac) - except in
Explorer (on a pc), where it displays too low: exactly like it
shows in DW. The background is a PS work, including a 'frame' to
play the movie within. Problem...

Thanks for any help. I can't find anything in the code doing
this.
Laurence

OK,  and Thanks again
//add the listener for each button
nav_button[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, menuClick); 
     addChild(nav_button[i]);
//menuClick Code
function menuClick(e:MouseEvent):void
e.target.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, menuClick);
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, resetButton);  //removes children from the navGroup movie clip
this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, menuOut, false, 0, true); //retracts the drop down list
setButtonIndex(e.target.name);
addLinks(e.target.name);  // adds drop down links to the navGroup movie clip
TweenLite.to(navGroup, .4, {y:navGroup.height,onComplete:showMe()});  //shows the drop down link list movie clips
//relate the above line to the target name
lastTarget = e.target.name;
Note: the displacement happens whenever I add a child to the stage, either the navGroup or the mask clip (dmask). The mask clip
is a rectangle with a fill.
Thanks

  • Flash movie display issues in IE

    Hi Everyone!
    This message is a cross-post and I apologize, but there seems
    to be more traffic in this forum and I really could use some input
    on my question. Here goes:
    I'm new to this forum, but have a little experience with
    Flash. I'm building a site, mixing flash with css and html on a
    webpage (obviously). When I test the pages in Internet Explorer,
    the display jumps around quite a bit when I navigate between web
    pages (looks fine when clicking through frames in the movies). This
    is the first time I've ever seen this (in the few times I've built
    flash-heavy sites) and this display issue doesn't happen in
    Firefox, Opera or even old Netscape. Unfortunately - most of the
    world is using IE, so I need a little help.
    I thought perhaps the Flash Satay solution might be the
    answer, but I'm not a handy programmer so before I go mucking
    around with it, I thought I'd get some thoughts from other flash
    users...
    Here's the link: mustardseedwoodworking.com/testing The pages
    in question (and the only ones that are working, really) are the
    home page, the about page, and then galleries one and two.
    (Oh finally, I'm viewing these pages both locally, on my
    computer and online after being uploaded. I have cable internet
    access. I realize Gallery 2 loads a bit more slowly than Gallery 1,
    but the primary reason I'm using flash to display the tables is
    because I want large, high rez photos. )
    Thanks in advance!
    Michelle

    Did you upload the Scripts folder that DW places in the root
    of your site?

  • Flash movie display

    hello
    i have built this site, www.emsworthcricketclub.com
    for internet explorer 8, and below, there is a short flash film.
    can anyone help me get rid of the horrible borders at the top?
    thanks
    malcolm

    I believe it has to do with the js call to the swf not
    updating although I don’t understand why there is a change to
    be updated when the triggering event is a null change to the
    template. Active content to run in files on my computer was not
    enabled, but enabling it does not correct the problem. The problem
    is exhibited in IE, Firefox, and Netscape. I have not tested
    others.
    I have tried using both site relative & document relative
    paths, both methods exhibit the same problem, an invisible swf in
    the preview.
    I have found a work around to bring back the swf display in
    preview. Within Dreamweaver Local Files, move the template files
    from the Template directory to the root directory, and then move it
    back to the template directory. The links are updated with each
    move and I find it’s best to not have any files or pages open
    in the Dreamweaver display.
    Yesterday I reported the issue was relative to preview only,
    but I retract that today. Yesterday I built a sample site to
    exhibit the problem but the problem only occurs in preview and not
    on the sample site, www.kenbits.com. The site I’m working on
    today exhibits the problem both in preview and on the site. Here
    are two sample pages,
    home.comcast.net/~woods_of_pardee/indexok.htm, &
    home.comcast.net/~woods_of_pardee/indexbroken.htm.
    Thank you for your continued support and research on my
    problem.

  • Layout page with flash movie on top

    I want to have the index page for my site open with a flash
    movie on top of the rest of the content of the page at a set pixel
    distance from the top of the page and centered horizontally in
    relation to the browser. I have been able to make this work with an
    absolute location using CSS elements in Dreamweaver and the
    equivalent of what used to be layers. It all works as long as the
    position of the layer is absolute, and your monitor settings are
    pretty standard. Otherwise the flash plays on the left:
    http://www.iconoclastic.net/metaphordogs/index.html
    When I try to make it a relative location, it moves to the
    top of the browser. When I try to make it relative to a table, it
    displaces the table content rather than playing over it.
    Any assistance would be appreciated
    Alec

    The standard solution is to set wmode="transparent" and <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> in your embed/object html, but that only helps to fix the problem in win/IE. The problem has been there on Adobe's own home page for years. If you're unlucky enough to use a Mac there's no effective solution for this problem.

  • Urgent! HTML table cell - Flash movie display browser dependent

    Hi all,
    I wonder if anyone has experienced the same problem i have
    (note, Windows XP, Dreamweaver 4).
    Consider the (rough) HTML code attached: A simple HTML table
    of one column and two rows is constructed to hold an image banner
    link and a Flash movie banner link in each cell consecutively.
    The Flash movie works normally when the HTML page is viewed
    in IE and Opera, until that is, it is placed inside a table cell.
    Inside the cell the flash movie seems to disappear, though i
    suspect it collapses to an image 1 pixel in height, as this can
    just about be seen using Opera.
    Is there something that I am missing? The code of course
    seems correct to me - perhaps there is a browser setting i am
    missing?
    Any help apprceiated - as i need to implement this code ..
    Daz

    Hi Alan,
    Dont think that was the problem (percentages used to scale to
    users browser?) ... though you did set me thinking!
    Was tired before, so only just remembered that when i was
    experimenting with setting the Table Properties the image was
    actually occasionally visible!!
    Short version: When formatting a cell containing a Flash
    animation dont leave the H field blank or use % (even though you're
    suppose to be able to!), use pixels instead - otherwise the Flash
    image collapses/disappears. Blank and % are fine everywhere else
    (I did type a long answer before, but it got eaten by the
    forum monster
    Someone/i will probably figure out
    why this is so or maybe i've just rediscovered the wheel
    here - but thats not really important now - because my Flash
    animation now renders similarly across IE, Opera and FireFox !!
    So thanks for your help!

  • Communicating with Flash movie

    Hi. I have a question. Is it possible to create a game in flash that will actively communicate with my application. Especially, how to send asynchronically the data to flash movie?
    E.g. The game that uses the application for the network communication so it receives the data and sends a data to application.
    I am considering using dll for the games in the application but I am also considering flash if the feature is available. It can be also a mixture of both: dll and flash.
    Thanks for answering...

  • Problems with Flash movie loading. Please help!

    Hi all,
    Thanks for the interest in my post...
    I created a website for a client in Flash 8 and although the
    client and myself can view the site, he has said that some people
    have contacted him saying the site won't load.
    I've put this down to them not having Flash Player 9
    installed on their machine (as they can view other sites I've done
    in earlier versions of Flash but not this one) but apparently one
    of the people who couldn't see it got the latest version of Flash
    and the site still wouldn't load.
    The website is at: www.petersnowdon.com and I would be most
    grateful if a few of you good people would be able to check it out
    to see if you have any viewing problems and if you have any
    suggestions as to what might be causing this.
    Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
    All the best,
    Mark

    Tell those people to:
    same damn problem I was probably having...When using IE and
    deleting temporary internet files it disables/corrupts/removes
    proper function of the adobe flash player....You can reinstall all
    night long and it will claim a "successful" installation but, it is
    not....YOU MUST FIRST UNINSTALL ADOBE FLASH PLAYER USING THE ONLY
    TOOL THAT WILL DO THIS WHICH IS THE FLASH PLAYER UNINSTALLER FROM
    THE ADOBE WEBSITE....BE SURE AND SAVE IT TO YOUR DESKTOP BECAUSE
    YOU WILL BE USING IT FOREVER.....Once you have used the uninstaller
    program you can then successfully and truthfully download the
    latest adobe flash player.......WILL SOMEBODY FROM ADOBE FIX
    THIS!........
    Adobe
    Uninstaller at bottom of page
    There seems to be an "object" in the temporary files object
    folder that is NECESSARY for proper Adobe Flash
    function…..see for yourself...tools-internet
    options-General-Settings-then click view objects.....here it is:
    {D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}
    When you clean out your temporary files this goes with it and
    your flash will NOT operate...you can try and reinstall it all
    night long...your dead...nothing....you must FIRST GO TO THE ADOBE
    UNINSTALLER and run that program to uninstall COMPLETELY the
    flash....Having done that, you can now install the flash and this
    time it will take......
    Let me know the results………..

  • Error with flash movie, what's wrong?

    I use flash player on a majority of sites, a few flash files seem to have problems with some of the latest versions and i cant seem to work out why, and i was hopeing some people who better understand it could possibly tell me why.  the flash file in question is http://dagobah.net/flash/bouncing_touhous.swf  all it ever says is "flash file not loaded..."
    Apart from that single file almost all other flashes work for me on multiple sites. this problem persists on all three of my computers, two running XP one running windows 7, and multiple browsers my flash plugin version for firefox is Shockwave Flash 11.2.202.233 .
    This file worked for flash version 10.3.181.26 and all before it.
    thanks in advance for any help.

    I can confirm that I'm seeing the same thing.  I haven't taken an in depth look at the swf yet, but my hunch is that this might be security related.  Would you mind opening a new bug report at http://bugbase.adobe.com with the details as you've explained them in your post?  Please post back with the bug URL so that others affected can add their comments and votes.
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Displaying Flash movie in JEditorPane -- HTMLEditor

    Hi,
    I am writing an HTMLEditor using Applet. I am using JEditorPane/JTextPane for editing the HTML page. I am displaying an HTML page using the setPage method of JEditorPane/JTextPane. But, I am not able to see the flash movie which is embeded in the HTML page.
    Did anybody try this? I saw a lot of questions regarding HTMLEditor using Applet, but haven't seen one regarding the flash movie display.
    I saw JMF(Java Media Framework), but it can be used only if we want to embed flash in java(eg:Applet,Frame) directly. Seems like JMF will not solve my problem.
    Can someone help me out.
    Thanx in advance.

  • Cannot watch flash movie on IE

    Greetings Everybody!
    Here I have a question about my flash in IE. When I tried to
    open an online link embedded with flash movie, I can not see any of
    them. I am quite sure flash player 9 was installed properly. Just
    want to know whether there is any other settings(flash/IE?) to be
    modified?
    Below is an example:
    http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/about/
    I can right click movie, but the "movie not loaded" is grey
    and only "About Adobe Flash player 9" is valid.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Did you look in the video app.

  • BPM Workspace can't display the flash movie with IE

    Hi
    We have the following problem, we have a BPM project with a flash screen, when we execute the project in the workspace of BPM studio we can see the Flash, but when we published the project in BPM Enterprise , the workspace can't display the flash movie, it just display the panel without buttons and fields. This happen just in Internet Explorer, in other browsers we can see the flash.
    Any idea or solution ??
    Thanks in advance

    Actually, I got it working now...
    It seems that I have to have all the files in the same folder
    as the page it displays on!
    Historically I would dump a standard flash clip (not a
    converted movie with buttons) into the /images folder.
    I tested this intitally in a /video folder (just to keep all
    the files in one place) which would display the clip but not the
    buttons but as soon as I moved the files in the same directory as
    the page itself (which is the main index.html) it worked fine!
    So if anyone does read this is there a reason for that as I
    would like to keep everything in separate folders!
    Cheers, J
