Flash doens't load external resources after refresh in Windows Firefox

Hi guys,
We're encountering a weird problem here. Implementing a Flash header that fades in&out through some external assets via XML... Works fine in all browsers on Windows & Mac, except, after refreshing the page in Firefox for Windows (XP, 7,...) it doesn't load the external resources anymore and we get a blank SWF. Monitored this in Firebug.
Flash Player has the latest version. We also have this problem on a local host.
It probably has something to do with caching, but the strange thing is that it only goes wrong in FF on a Windows machine. Also works fine again after a hard refresh.
Thoughts?
Thanks.
BR,
Lex

UPDATE: Removing wmode: transparent from the Flash attributes seems to fix it.. Weird. Unfortunately this attribute is really necessary for the lay-out..

  • Media files prevent Flash from fully loading external XML file

    Im trying to debug a flash widget we created, and it loads
    fine on the 20 odd computers we tested on EXCEPT for one computer
    where, the application doesn't load an external XML file that calls
    for 3 small mp3 files and a FLV file to load as well.
    In a debugger, we noticed that when it tried to load these
    mp3 files it was getting a Forbidden access message. The FLV just
    prevents the FLV player from showing up at all (not even the skin).
    Can anyone figure out why, that it would work over all the
    other computers and NOT the one? On that person's computer, we
    tried it in IE, Firefox, even Chrome and the application doesn't
    load. We even cleared the cache, did a hard refresh and still
    nothing.
    However, the other computers work just fine.
    ALL the computers have the latest Flash software installed.
    What could cause this problem?

    Actually what worked was removing 'xmldoc' from the php script. So $data =$GLOBALS["HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA"]; instead of $data = xmldoc($GLOBALS["HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA"]);
    Couldn't find anything about 'xmldoc'. Is it used for anything in php?
    Anyway, the loading error went away, but then I got into problems with getting the return echoed values back. The textfield stayed empty even when saving the data.txt file worked.
    I then placed the <stuff> tags between <root> tags and then flash got the sentences between the <stuff> tags back. Why does Flash need the returned xml output to be between <root> tags for it to see the content between the <stuff> tags? So why do I need to use echo("<root><stuff>Server unable to create file.</stuff></root>"); instead of cho("<stuff>Server unable to create file.</stuff>");?

  • Flash XML Slideshow - Load next image after set amount of time

    I'm creating flash xml slideshow and have managed to get the
    images to load from the XML file. What I want to do now is have a
    timer that loads the next image after x amount of seconds. Any help
    would be great.
    Code sample
    stop();
    // Create XML Object
    slideshow_xml = new XML();
    // Start slideshow once XML file is loaded
    slideshow_xml.onLoad = startSlideShow;
    //Load XML file
    slideshow_xml.load("slideshow.xml");
    //Ignore Whitespace in XML Document
    slideshow_xml.ignoreWhite = true;
    //Create Function for Slideshow - Shows first slide and
    initalises variables
    function startSlideShow(success) {
    if (success == true) {
    rootNode = slideshow_xml.firstChild;
    totalSlides = rootNode.childNodes.length;
    firstSlideNode = rootNode.firstChild;
    currentSlideNode = firstSlideNode;

    function updateSlide(newSlideNode) {
    imagePath = newSlideNode.attributes.jpgURL;
    slideText = newSlideNode.firstChild.nodeValue;
    loadMovie(imagePath, loadTarget);
    }

    Ok I've managed to get most of this working including the
    alpha fade in. I haven't been able to get the images to fade out
    (fadeImageOut function) so if someone can tell me what I'm doing
    wrong. Also should I have some sort of preloader function for when
    each image loads? and if so any pointers, then it should be done
    except that I might need to add some text for each image in the XML
    file.

    this.createEmptyMovieClip("container", this.getNextHighestDepth());

    this.getNextHighestDepth());
    container._x = 0;
    container._y = 0;

    var fadeTween = new mx.transitions.Tween(loader1, "_alpha",
    mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeIn, 0, 100, 1.5, true);

  • Infopath 2010 Web Form will not run code behind or load External Lists after FormEvents_Loading added

    Building a form to edit and create data in external list. The business rules do not allow for creation in an external list bound InfoPath form. (We are cascade filtering multiple drop down lists from external content type).
    All works to write code behind to push new record or update record in external list. The big issue came when trying to add FormEvents_loading event to the code to capture URL parameter. I want to be able to pass the Primary Key of the record to
    edit, load the data into the form and allow editing and submit. I have tested by manually entering the data and the form works. The form will no longer load data from external lists for the drop downs and shows an error stating "The custom code
    in the form cannot be run. This functionality may be deactivated
    on the server. For more information, contact the server farm administrator."
    I think this is related to moving from the normal forms services into sandboxed code service. Is there a way to access external content types and still have form loading event capture URL parameters?
    The code to capture the URL is listed below:
    XPathNavigator myNav1 = this.MainDataSource.CreateNavigator();
    string InputF1 = string.Empty;
    if (e.InputParameters.ContainsKey("AuthPK"))
    InputF1 = e.InputParameters["AuthPK"];
    myNav1.SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:CodeData/my:DatabaseUpdateStatus", this.NamespaceManager).SetValue(InputF1);
    myNav1.SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:CodeData/my:pk_tblOFCAuthorizations", this.NamespaceManager).SetValue(InputF1);
    else
    myNav1.SelectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:CodeData/my:pk_tblOFCAuthorizations", this.NamespaceManager).SetValue("0");
    Is there another way to pass parameters to the form? I tried using web part connection, but that does not work with code behind form at all, which would stop me from updating external list.

  • Differing behavior loading external swfs between Linux and Windows

    I have a swf that loads several different swfs that implement the same basic class, some of these external
    swfs also import different resources from library swfs, such as font, video, and graphic assets.
    This seems to work perfectly well on both windows and Linux with using the font and graphic assets in
    the flash player (debug v 10r32), everything works as I'd expect.  I am added everything into the main swf's
    appdomain when using the loader (with loadercontext, etc).
    When I am loading the video asset class in the external swfs, it works fine on both systems for the first swf
    loaded that uses the video class.  On windows, whenever the second swf using the video library loads up, it
    gives a #1065 Reference error pointing to one of the variables used in the video asset swf.  It runs fine on Linux.
    I've tried playing around with the different AppDomain settings to no avail.  I am stumped as to why it would
    function perfectly well in Linux, but fail on Windows.  Any pointers as to where to look next?
    Thanks for any and all help,
    RP.

    In this case, it appears to be differing versions of the flexsdk that was being used to compile the application.
    Windows was using the default tarball from the adobe site,
    Linux was using a more up to date version from svn.
    I updated the svn snapshot, recompiled, set the Windows box to use it, and the error messages have disappeared.
    I can still crash the flashplayer doing other things, but it's more or less working exactly as expected now.

  • Problem in loading external HTML content using SpryHTMLDataSet in Firefox

    I have a very simple placement of the contents of an HTML DIV within a subsidiary HTML file (statespecificassets.html) into a main HTML document, using SpryHTMLDataSet in Dreamweaver CS4.
    The relevant bits of code in the main HTML doc:
    In the header:
    <script src="../../SpryAssets/SpryData.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="../../SpryAssets/SpryHTMLDataSet.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    var ds1 = new Spry.Data.HTMLDataSet("../../statespecificassets.html", "NN_Data_s3a");
    ds1.setColumnType("column0", "html");
    //-->
    </script>
    And at the point of inclusion of the external DIV:
    <div spry:region="ds1" class="StackedContainers">
             <div spry:repeat="ds1" class="RowContainer">
                <div class="RowColumn" style="background-color: #D7DF21;">{column0}</div>
             </div>
          </div>
    The problem: This works fine in Safari 4.0 on a Mac, and IE7 on a PC. It doesn't work in Firefox 3.0.11 (latest version) on Mac or PC: In firefox the reference content simply doesn't load. The only way I can get it to work in Firefox is if I place the main HTML doc and its subsidiary reference HTML file in exactly the same directory/ on the same level, and adjust the script reference accordingly ( var ds1 = new Spry.Data.HTMLDataSet("statespecificassets.html", "NN_Data_s3a"); ) ...But I can't/ don't want to alter my directory structure, because multiple files in other directories will need to use the reference file.
    Is there some other way of making it all-browser compatible -- possibly by adjusting a relevant bit of code in SpryHTMLDataSet.js in the Spry Assets? .. I've attached the SpryHTMLDataSet.js file for reference.
    Thank you to any kind soul who might have the nous to solve this.

    This is the latest version of SpryHTMLDataSet: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/preview/SpryHTMLDataSet.js

  • T61: "Error loading operating system" after reboot with Windows XP SR3

    So here is my problem:  Occasionally, after reboot I get "Error loading operating system" right after the Lenovo screen (the one where you can press ThinkVantage button). After that the only thing I can do is shut down the computer and fix the windows boot (see bellow…). I'm running Windows XP SR3, clean install.
    I've had my T61 for 6 months now and I've had this problem about 8 times so far. Obviously this makes my T61 unstable and is becoming a major problem (I like to shut down the computer before taking it anywhere, and I don't really use Hibernate).
    Solving the boot is very easy and takes 3 minutes… But the Win XP CD is needed for the fix and I don't want to carry it around with me everywhere. And anyway this is annoying and makes my T61 crippled…
    To fix the problem:
    1 Change AHCI -> Compatibility in BIOS.
    2 Boot using the Windows XP CD.
    3 Enter the Recovery Console (press R).
    4 Use "fixboot" to write a new boot sector.
    5 Restart ("exit").
    6 Change back to AHCI in Bios.
    After that the computer works perfect until the next time… Things I have tried so far:
    1 Installed latest Bios for T61.
    2 Checked firmware for HD (WD Scorpio WD1600BEVS) and it's the latest.
    3 Installed all windows updates for Windows XP.
    4 Installed all latest drivers for T61 (specifically checked the Intel Matrix Storage Driver and it's the latest).
    5 Checked computer for Viruses, malware, etc. with a few scanners. It's clean.
    6 Updated some of the programs that I thought might be causing problems: Avira , PerfectDisk 2008, TrueImage Home…
    7 Checked HD with WD Diagnostics tools
    I am out of ideas. Something is corrupting the boot sector occasionally when I shut down the system. But I can't find why or under  what circumstances it happens… The only thing I didn't try was a completely new clean system install, a thing which I REALLY don't want to do. Except for this problem the system is great, very stable and I'm very happy with it.
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    I run the windows version of TestDisk. Is there any specific reason for me to make a Live CD? It seems to work just fine in windows. Anyway, I run all the analysis tests with it. It did NOT find any problems. Is there some specific test I should run?
    Some further testing has shown me that the problem happens sometime during using windows and not upon restarting... When it does happen I can no longer use chkdsk - it gives the following error message:
    "The type of the filesystem is RAW.
    CHKDSK is not available for RAW drives."
    Some other things I tried:
    - I've pretty much ruled out physical HD problems (I checked the HD with PC Doctor, WD's Data Lifeguard Diagnostic Tool and chkdsk - no problems). And the HD shows no symptoms of failure (no noises or any other problems).
    - Ruled out boot-sector Viruses (cheked the computer with 4 different antiviruses - Avira,AVG, Kaspersky and NOD32).
    - Manually checked the boot.ini file - no problems.
    - I have also found while googling that the problem might have to do with a registry entry concerning HDs bigger then 137gb. I double checked that entry and it's fine.
    - Tried both fixmbr and fixboot, alone and together - windows boots, but the problem comes back again after a few hours/days...
    Things I'm trying now:
    - Reinstalled the Intel Matrix Storage Drivers (before I just checked that they are the latest).
    - Disabled the Active Protection System (I am shooting in the dark...).
    I am getting pretty desperate here.

  • Flash Site not load on IE 8, but works on Firefox.

    I created a website in Flash CS3 Pro, and gave it a html wrapper in Dreamweaver CS3.  Neither of these programs found any errors or compatibility problems. The site loads in Firefox, but not in IE. Any I missing something basic? You all seem to have at least been able to see your uploaded pages.
    There are xml pages, and Photos that the Flash page uses. These files were uploaded and Firefox works.
    I have done everything I can think of.  Would appreciate any help.  The website is:   www.lightspinnersweb.com .

    Have Flash publish an html page and see if that page has the same problem.  That is how I always acquire the code for embedding Flash content... I won't use Dreameweaver for that.

  • When I reinstall thunderbird after refreshing my windows 8.1 laptop, how can I retrieve my messages that were on the PC?

    * C:\Users\Windows user name\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\Profile name\
    If you have reinstalled thunderbird, then this will be where any new Profile will be stored and where the old one should be located if the refresh did not remove it.
    Maybe the old one can be located here; worth looking just in case.
