Box around Flash in Website
All the flash work I've designed, when I open up a site where
the element is, a box is around the flash....what is this box? If I
click on the box, it disappears. If i put my mouse over the flash,
that box appears around the flash. Is there a way I can fix this is
or is it a setting n my browser and/or flash player? Here is an
example:
http://bradyallmondds.com/.
Place your mouse over the header, and you'll see what I mean.
Thanks, Guys and Gals!

your .js file looks like this:

var bo_ns_id = 0;\line\line function startIeFix()\{\line
if(isIE())\{\line
document.write('<div id="bo_ns_id_' + bo_ns_id +
'"><!--

if(isIE())\{\line
document.write('</div>');\line var theObject =
document.getElementById("bo_ns_id_" + bo_ns_id++);\line var
theCode =
theObject.innerHTML;\line theCode = theCode.substring(4
,9+theCode.indexOf("</object>"))\line
document.write(theCode);\line\}\line\}\line\line function
isIE()\{\line //
only for Win IE 6+\line // But not in Windows 98, Me, NT 4.0,
2000\line var
strBrwsr= navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase();\line
if(strBrwsr.indexOf("msie") > -1 &&
strBrwsr.indexOf("mac") < 0)\{\line
if(parseInt(strBrwsr.charAt(strBrwsr.indexOf("msie")+5)) <
6)\{\line return
false;\line\}\line if(strBrwsr.indexOf("win98") > -1
||\line
strBrwsr.indexOf("win 9x 4.90") > -1 ||\line
strBrwsr.indexOf("winnt4.0")
> -1 ||\line strBrwsr.indexOf("windows nt 5.0") >
-1)\line\{\line return
false;\line\}\line return true;\line\}else\{\line return
false;\line\}\line\}\par
\pard\f1\fs20\par
There seems to be a lot of extra stuff in there that would
make it not be
valid javascript. It hsould just be a plain text file.

On my flash movies when I post them to the web, there is a
box around the movie and then it says "Click to Activate and Use
the Control". Why is it doing this and how can I get it to
stop?my 1st reaction is that these posts are just a funny
joke - since about every 8th post is on this
exact topic nowadays
My newsreader is actually downloading them as the same thread
because they share the same subject
line - usually that happens with subects like "HELP!" or
"URGENT!" lol

Remove box around flash when rollover
Does anyone know how to remove the white box inside a browser
(in my case Internet Explorer) that appears around a flash area
when your mouse rolls over into the flash area? What I've noticed
is that on some websites this actually does not happen and on other
websites it does. Is it something I can control as a flash
designer? In other words, is there a setting or something that
turns off this white box area from showing up on a mouse roll over?
Any tips or help would be appreciated.
Thank you very much,
TonyThis is why:

Here's my problem. I have a box appear around my Flash in
internet explorer, I know about the lawsuit between Microsoft and
Active X, and understand why it is there, and can even get rid of
it with a javascipt file. My problem is that whenever I get rid of
the box, I also get rid of my dhtml. Here is the page:
http://d14684333.r200.radiowebworks.com/info_farm.htm.
As you can see, my dhtml menu goes "OVER" the flash, but
because of that box, no links can be clicked until you click on the
flash. I am pulling my hair out here! How can I get rid of that box
and not get rid of my DHTML script? Please don't send me to the
Microsoft site because I read their info there and was totally
lost! Please advise. I am at my wits end! Also, by the way, I am
using Dreamweaver MX 2004. Thanks for all the help guys, I
appreciate it greatly!http://blog.deconcept.com/2005/03/31/proper-flash-embedding-flashobject-best-practices

Box around flash files in explorer
I am doing a site with flash buttons and every tim i go to a
new page and roll over the buttons section a bounding box comes up
around everything that is flash. When you roll over it, it tells
you to click to activate this control.
it works fine in mozilla but not in explorer. I havent had
this problem until recently and i am wondering is it a new version
of explorer that is doing this and i need to change some browser
settings or something.
Here is the link to the test site.

ThanksHi Mike,
Sorry, but that link won't work.
Here is the text of the post:
At my company I create LMS enabled lessons to help clinicians
learn to use patient tracking software. We recently encountered a
small problem that might be encountered by others who use this
forum. I thought I’d post my experience.
The issue began when my company began upgrading computer
terminals with the latest version of Windows XP. The symptoms of
the problem occurred when a web page containing any active content,
such as Flash, QuickTime, etc., displayed via the latest version of
Internet Explorer.
Here is the sequence of events:
After a page containing active content loaded, the user would
hover a mouse over the (active) content. At that time two curious
things would occur; a gray “bounding box” would appear
around the borders of the active content, and a small message box
would appear saying “Click to activate and use this
control.”. The user would have to click the active content
(to make the message and bounding box disappear). After the message
and bounding box disappeared the active content would function as
intended.
For me this meant that HTML files where I had Flash embedded
(generated from a Captivate file) would require an initial mouse
click to activate the (Flash) control. (I had many short Flash/HTML
files strung together for form a single lesson. I did this to track
the users progress through the LMS.) Each time a HTML page with
active content loaded the user would have to repeat the mouse
click. This was not a good thing for my lessons.
After doing a little research I found a Macromedia/Adobe
article that explained what was causing this new quirk and how to
work around the problem.
Here is a link to that article:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/activecontent/articles/devletter.html
I thought this might be helpful for any folks encountering
the same problem.

Hi - I'm not only having trouble waking up my MBP from sleep and having to restart repeatedly which is a pain in itself, but now when it restarted, I have these black boxes surrounding things, e.g., there is a black box around the red "close" button on the upper left corner of this page. There is also an oblong resizable black box sitting on top of anything. The content changes depending on the actions I take. Right now it says, "You are currently on a close button. To click this button, which closes the current window, press Control-Option-Space." Right now I'm open in Firefox, but it doesn't matter if only Finder is open, it's still there. I've tried closing all my applications and restarting and I also reset the PRAM. It won't go away. It's probably something simple, but I don't know how to get rid of it. Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
JanetThanks so much. I saw this on "desktop strangeness" immediately after I posted and tried to retract my question. It worked perfectly. I'm not sure how VoiceOver got turned on unless something happened when I was trying to wake up the computer. I open the lid and it flashes whatever is open and then the screen goes black and I can't wake it up. Still looking for the resolution to this.

How do I get firefox to stop displaying blue boxes around my linked images?
I am talking about Firefox 3.5 on mac.
I was wondering if there was some way of turning off link highlighting on my website in Dreamweaver or if there is some kind of code I have to enter.
What happens is that i have images with hyperlinks and firefox puts blue boxes around them and it is ugly.
Safari works perfectly so its not me.The answer to this question, Getting rid of blue borders around links is in the Dreamweaver FAQ.

White box around png images in Final Cut Express 4.0
I was putting in some muzzle flashes into my video with final cut express 4.0, they were png images and there was a white box around the muzzle flash after i used the composite mode screen effect, if anybody knows what the problem is i could use the help.
I inserted a 3D bullet into my movie and it had a black background. I used Composite Screen and it it worked, but it made the bullet slightly transparent. What should I do?

White box around image in my transparent .swf file
I created a .swf file for a header of a website using a logo that tweens in. I tested the .swf with the transparent properties and it works but the logo I imported from photoshop has a white box around it, how can I remove this? Do I need to import a transparent .png file instead of a .jpg?
Thanks!.png's are lossless vector graphics, so it's probably best bet if your going to do other things with the logo. .jpg's are not fond of resizing. You can also break the image apart and use the lasso tool and magic wand the background away.

How do I get rid of blue boxes around hotspots?
Hi there,
I've added three hotspots to this website, but after you click on them it leaves a non-so-pleasant blue box around them.
http://chanlegge.comjavascript:;http://chanlegge.com/
I should point out also that these appear for me in Safari and Chrome, but not Firefox.
I'm a complete dolt when it comes to webdesign (as you can see, the website is basically just two jpegs) and don't know about CSS etc, but I am hoping there is a simple way to avoid having these. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
JohnnyI must have been on the wrong page when I looked initially.
@JohnJohnJohn,
If you ever want to have a search engine index your site (so people can find you using Google and the like) you need to seriously reconsider what you're doing. Since your pages consist of a single image that is then mapped, there's nothing for the search engines to index in any meaningful way. Search engines rely on relevant, keyword rich, html text to give your site any kind of position in a viewer's search results. As far as the search engines are concerned, right now, your pages are blank.
Also, as it stands now, anyone with a screen reader will get what amounts to a blank page, even if they do happen across your site somehow.
Finally, the mailto links you are using won't do anything when clicked for any user who relies on browser based email clients (gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc) because the mailto link activates email clients installed on the actual computer. If someone viewing your site without something like Outlook installed, clicking your mailto link does nothing. It's much, much better to use a form to email script (usually available from your hosting provider) to allow users to contact you no matter how their email is set up. -
I was trying to get it to airprint to my supposedly supported HP eprint printer, but was having no luck. After trying to follow the online instructions on the HP website, it told me to turn it off wait 30 secs then turn it back on(along with the other devices but thats not my issue now) When I turned it back on it has a black box around all icons, I have to "double click" to get anything to open, and is not scrolling properly. I have turned it off and back on again, no change.
i am expereincing this problem....what was the solution??

Prevent show 'select download folder' dialog when click export csv button in a flash-based website
I want to download csv file from a flash-based website. When i click the button with export icon, Firefox always pop up dialog box with title 'select download folder for ...'. I have set up default download folder and uncheck 'always ask me where to save files'. If i download from other websites (not a flash one) then the download automatically started without pop up folder selection dialog. I want to prevent firefox from showing download folder selection dialog because i need to use it for web automation. by the way, i use ubuntu 12.04 with firefox 21.0. I have used flashgot extension but still no luck. Any suggestion about this?
I already have followed the instruction above, but still no luck. The dialog still appear. I think this is not a regular download link since it's made with flash. It's look like an export button which will force browser to pop up 'select folder location' dialog and when i click save then there is no download progress like usual, the file just saved automatically. I think the file itself is rendered when the flash website loaded, and then embeded into the web page. When i download, it didn't send any request, it just get the embeded file.

Blue box around link wont go away
Im using DW cs3 and trying to redo a website. I have
everything in place, but when I add a link to an animated gif in
center of my page, it adds a blue border around the image. How can
I turn this off?
I have a nav column on left side of page will rollover
effects and there is no blue box around those images.
If thats not bad enough, I also have an animated gif above my
nav column, and when I add a link to it, It gets a blue box as well
and expands my nav table. I havent experienced this with older DW.
Any ideas on what Im doing or not doing right?
*****Disregard. Finally figured out you have to put a 0 in
for border. I dont remember ever having to put that in before. I

Hi David - I thought he might want borders on some other
images on the page?
