Embedded swf "jumping" when scrolling an html page

Hello!
I have created a banner file in Flash and when embedding an swf file on the html page the swf banner appears to be "jumping" up and down when the page is longer and needs to be scrolled. This only happens when scrolling the page.
I put up an example here:
www.selkografiikka.com/test/coaching4.html
You can see the black swf box jumping towards the red dots when scrolling.
This turns out to be a problem on a website I'm working with since it's creating a rather nervous vibe to the whole feel of the site - example here:
http://www.selkografiikka.com/tindra/index.htm
Any ideas what's causing this?
I am using Dreamweaver and Flash cs3.
It seems to be a problem in all the browsers.

Thank you Jon and Nancy for your replies.
Sorry it took me a little while to figure out how to reply here.
I’m happy this is not a problem on each computer according to your replies.
I believe Java Script would be more up to date way of doing this, but the original idea was more complicated – with animated text and such so that’s why flash. I thought just to make a static picture that will show in ipads and such when flash is not supported.
I can still see that jumping thing although I updated my flash player and otherwise have just the same browser versions as Jon.
I might consider switching the animation part to javascript animation.
Thank you guys!

  • PDF files break up when scrolling down the page

    Embedded pdf files break up when scrolling down the page i.e.

    Go to the "inspector"-click on the "table" icon-then "headers and footers" where you can set the number of headers or footers you want and click/unclick "freeze". You can also do that directly from the button bar on the "header-footer" buttons

  • Rainbow wheel when scrolling a web page

    Strangely every '''second time''' that I want scrolling a web page, the arrow become unresponsive for few second and the rainbow wheel appear sometime for more the 1 mn !
    This happen mostly on Google web page.
    I clear already firefox cache but it didn't help.
    iMac 3.06GHz IC2D OS X 10.6.8 / Firefox 8.0.1

    Yes, that's what I did in the first place.
    Instead of MOUSE_UP I used KEY_DOWN and the results came both: the stage and the HTMLLoader. That's why I'm confused. I'm pretty sure the results are same if I use MOUSE_UP too, isn't it?
    And my question is, where is the focus when scrolling a web page loaded with HTMLLoader WITH ARROW KEYS. Not using a mouse, and I don't know how to scroll with a mouse.

  • Page jumps when scrolling in adobe reader 9 on a Sunray pc

    When viewing a pdf on the sunray machines the pdf jumps when being scrolled.  It appears to break up into sections as you scroll. but can be viewed fine on a general pc.  Can we fix this

    I also have this problem. 2 gig ram / athlon 2400+ @ 2.0 GHz. Adobe reader 9.0.0.0
    Save yourself the headache and dump adobe. Since they haven't responded i'd give up hope on them. I'm using an alternative open source alternative. sumatra pdf. Initially opening a pdf it's quite slow but after that it's infinitely better than scrolling h311 with adobe's reader.

  • How can I have a Flash SWF file to load a HTML page?

    I'm looking for a way to have Flash (CS5) to load and display a very simple HTML web page. Basically, the SWF file would be a standalone document sent by e-mail (or people would post on their web pages), and this SWF would display the content of another web page (consisting mostly in a live video on a black background)
    How can I have Flash CS5 to do that??
    Thank you!
    -sv

    Yeah maybe I wasn't clear enough... Here's the big picture.
    I run a live TV station, broadcasting 24/7 on the web via a Flash application (a projector basically). The video feed is streaming on my site, as well as on numerous web sites across the net. A Flash projector is also available as a standalone application, people download and use it to watch the movies without opening a web page.
    I am currently changing the broadcast method, from Flash stream to HTTP stream. But since my TV is already posted and linked in many places, I want to change the Flash object on my server with a new one, that has a HTTP stream instead of the Flash stream. It seems that HTTP stream cannot be embedded in a SWF, but it can be displayed on a HTML web page. The solution I came up with is to have a HTML page to load in the Flash player. All I would need to do is to have that HTML page to display the HTTP stream.
    So from there, most of my audience would not need to change anything to watch my streaming TV, while those who downloaded the old Flash projector would need to download a new one.

  • Keeping the heading when scrolling down the page

    In Excell it is possible to keep the column heading row separate so that when you scroll down through pages of numbers the headings are still visible at the top of the rows. Is it possible to do this in Numbers?
    Thanks

    Go to the "inspector"-click on the "table" icon-then "headers and footers" where you can set the number of headers or footers you want and click/unclick "freeze". You can also do that directly from the button bar on the "header-footer" buttons

  • Help. when I link html pages, they show up much larger in browser

    Hello,
    I designed 5 pages. When I look at them all through the browser individually in Dreamweaver CS4, they show up all correctly with a fixed width of 950.
    The problem comes when I link my navigation buttons to the html pages. When I click onto the links to the pages in the browser, three out of five of the pages become large. Instead of a 950 pixel width, all the content becomes bigger to fit my browser on my 15 inch screen.
    Can someone please help? I've been looking at this all day and need to get this done for a friend soon.
    I have saved all my files as document relative in Dreamweaver cs4. I have also defined the target of each link as "self".
    Thanks so much in advance.Would be super grateful for any help!

    Perhaps you could jsut paste the html for one of yoru problematic pages here so we can see it, altho tht may not be enough to really tell.
    The method you appear to have used to create the page is not the most desirable, but should have worked okay I would think.  And such a table ought not typically be fluid unless you went out of yoru way to make it so, so not sure what is happening.  Have to see the page.
    Another option is to upload your page, and its associated assets (images, cs js files etc) to http://www.getdropbox.com/ i jsut learned about
    this site recently on this forum and it seems a great idea for allowing us to see yoru page and help you.  Far bettr than pasting yoru code here!

    You can't use flash as background because you can't place
    active content into HTML background
    in general. Possible only if the entire page is made in
    Flash, then simply place it on the bottom
    layer of the movie.
    The effect you describe it done with Layers which are quite
    easy if you familiar with Dreamweaver.
    Let me elaborate.
    You can not get beyond flash to animate beyond the canvas
    boundaries (the movie size defined in your
    object embed tags). These are movies that are actually with
    transparent background, using WMODE parameter
    to achieve that, it makes them appear like they fly all over
    the HTML document while they actually just
    large movies with no background. Another way to do it, is to
    use Wmode and animate the layer itself
    rather then making a huge movie canvas to cover the space
    WMODE however is known to cause problems, from crashing
    browsers to disabling actions ,screwing up buttons
    etc... So be aware of it, if suddenly some of the features
    stop working, you know what's the reason behind
    it. That's why it's commonly use for ads only, minimum user
    interaction.

  • Annoying screen appears everytime when calling another html page.

    i deployed my form application onto the web successfully. But
    there's one screen (Oracle Developer Server R6i) appearing every
    time I go to another page.
    For example: I have 2 forms A and B, each has its own html page
    containing Applet tab. The application starts from A.html, and
    A will call B.html. This oracle screen displays all the time
    when i click back or forward.
    How can I eliminate it?

    Thank you for your answer.
    The reasons I want to use web.show_document are:
    Firstly I don't know how to close the calling form when open the
    called form. The code works in client/server env, but it just
    hangs there on the web.
    Secondly, I hope to use the web back button to return to the
    previous form.
    Is there anyway i can do to eliminate the splash screen and
    function well?
    My guess is that you are talking about the splash screen that
    you can disable with a paramter in the HTML file.
    But this will not happen if you use normal CALL_FORM or
    OPEN_FORM buil-in in forms to activate one form from the other.
    Don't use web.show_document to open a new form it will only work
    slower that way.

  • There is a processing delay. When typing in Word there is a delay between when a key is hit and when the corresponding character appears on the screen. Another example is when scrolling down a page, the scroll is also delayed.

    What is cause of processing delay. Fraction of a second delay between hitting a key and seeing result on screen. Another example is when scrolling, the scroll is delayed for a fraction of a second.

    This is only in Word? Sounds like Microsoft's software has a bug. Have you checked for available updates in Microsoft AutoUpdate?

  • Intermittenttly, when scrolling down a page, the page jumps back up uncontrollably and nothing makes it stay in the desired place.

    This happens also on pages I can zoom in on - it will zoom in and out uncontrollably. Sometimes just moving the cursor across the window without clicking on anything will cause the view to zoom in or out. Eventually it calms down.
    This IS intermittent and started only recently. When I turn off my laptop, it usually says it's installing an update and I'm not sure if that's a Mozilla update, Quicktime, Flash or what and if you can tell me how to determine what's being updated so often, I'd appreciate it because I have a suspicious nature about things happening without my knowledge!
    The scrolling up and down can happen on a page once and if I go out and return, it may or may not happen again. The distance it goes back is never the same. Left-clicking the mouse doesn't anchor the page. Using the scroll bar doesn't change anything. In fact, even when the left mouse button is depressed with the cursor on the scroll bar, the bar will jump up and down by itself.
    I use a Rocketfish wireless mouse. Thinking it was the problem, I replaced the battery and re-booted it but that doesn't help. Closing Firefox and re-opening it doesn't stop the problem.
    It doesn't seem to happen in documents on my laptop, just on the internet.
    In fact, it's happening right now!
    Thanks for your help...Hope you have some ideas for me!
    ALSO - I am NOT a fan of Google and don't really want it on my computer but I notice "Google update" listed as a plugin. If you can tell me how to remove it, please do. Thank you!

    Jeesh, sorry for the typos...
    I've also contacted the template creator, and he couldn't seem to fix it either.

  • Show Section/Level 1 Outline Title when Scrolling in iOS Pages

    To make this a bit clear I would like to refer to scrolling in iBooks. When you swipe the scroll bar you will see the title of the chapters (sections) of the book above the tip of your finger. I would like to see same effect/feature of this in Pages. I have created an ms word 500-page doc (text only) complete with Sections and Outline Level 1 for chapter titles and the rest will be body text. The imported doc into Pages format looks almost same as the original doc and the sections are preserved. Since Pages has no Document Map (as in MS Word) it would help me a lot to jump to any of the sections of the document without having to rely on the tiny thumbnail with unreadable text, like jumping from chapter to another if there is that title text appearing over the thumbnail when I am scrolling along the doc. Is there a way I can show the outline level title/chapters? Or is this feature not yet available? Hope this will be available soon because it will be very helpful. Thank you...

    You should submit feedback directly to Apple to let them know you would like to see this feature. Feedback for Pages for Mac: http://www.apple.com/feedback/pages.html. Feedback for Pages for iOS: http://www.apple.com/feedback/pages_ios.html

  • Servlets: Scrolling a html page

    I have a servlet that generates a page with edit buttons,
    rows, columns etc. When the edit button is pressed it
    allows the current row to be edited (hence the name edit button ;). The problem is, when I press a button way down on the bottom of the page (scrollable) it works as it should (opens a html textfield(?) on the row) but the drawback is, that the page is hiked up and you have to scroll down and find the edit row. So is there a way I can scroll it down automatically near the edit row?
    Thank you

    Have I understod correctly?
    When you press the button the servlet generates a new page with the textfield.
    You call the servlet something like this in the button: www.site.com/servlet/theServlet.
    Then call it as www.site.com/servlet/theServlet#here and insert <a name="here"> before the textfield in the generated page (in the servlet code).

  • How do I disable Firefox Faster - where subsequent pages automatically load when scrolling down the page?

    When I am on the website "PlentyofFish.com" and scroll down to the end of the page, the subsequent pages begin to load up and "stack up" which conceals the previous pages and contacts. This does not normally cause a problem with other websites, like news sites, where I can read from page to page without having to find the "page forward" button.

    This should be in the same spot:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General mini-tab > ''uncheck the box for'' "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page"
