Flash input text not letting me type anything

Hi,
Ive recently developed a flash site that features a contact form where a user must enter his name, email and such. When the user presses "send", all the fields are getting passed to a php page, which then composes an email to be sent to a certain address.
now my problem is the following:
I've tested this on every single browser I managed to install on my windows vista machine, and it works perfect on all browsers, even safari (for vista)
but my friend who's using an apple machine with MAC OSX (using safari as browser), has a few problems.
when he goes to the site, it all works, but when he tries to type text in the input fields, it doesn't let him...
this renders my contact form pretty useless :S
I've been googling around for about an hour now and I found 1 other person having the same problem, but the website I found it at, requires u to pay and register in order to see what other ppl replied
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Software/PhotosGraphics/Web_Graphics/Macromedia_Flash/Q23172357.html
so much for the power of GNU
any help or just pointing me in the right direction would be much appreciated
regards,
Steve

o lol, I didn't know that :o
I actually went trough the trouble of getting the google cached page where nothing is hidden lol
but it wasn't a problem of embed fonts like that guy
the problem was the following (kinda complicated):
the entire flash gets its content from a drupal service and AMFPHP, the way I showed the contact form within the flash was by sending a tag to the htmlText field and the src of the img tag was the contact form.swf
the problem was that the main flash puts a mask over the content area while loading the content and as soon as it's loaded, the mask slides away
now I still have no clue why it worked on vista on pretty much every browser (even tried IE 5.5 and it worked) but on any browser on MAC OSX or on WIN XP, it wouldn't work at all
so now I entirely remade it withing the main flash, so it doesn't get pushed as "content" but it just shows up over the content if the title of the page is right
now the real challange is to actually make it properly communicate with the external php file and do proper checkups on the textfield so that ppl can't type "iljghjlghjg" as email address

  • I just updated my iPhone 6 to IOS 8.3. My safari will not let me search anything. If I type in a website URL, the Go button is greyed out. If I type in something to search on google, I press Go and nothing happens. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    You may have installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

    This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

  • MacBook won't let me type anything at all

    MacBook won't let me type anything at all. It's running Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snowleopard

    You have to understand the difference between an Update and an Upgrade.
    An Update is a free change to add to the base code or as a bug fix within an existing Operating System. Such as the .8 added to 10.5.
    An Upgrade is a complete new Operating System that must be purchased. Such as 10.5 Leopard to 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    10.5 Leopard was written for Power PC Macs with code added to allow it to run on Intel processors.
    10.6 Snow Leopard has completely rewritten code and only runs on Intel Macs.
    10.7 Lion used some 32 bit which allows it to run on Late 2006 through Early 2008 MacBooks and a lot of 64 bit code.
    10.8 Mountain Lion is pure 64 bit, which excludes more systems than Lion did. It can only run on the Late 2008 through Mid 2010 MacBooks. It's not something you can add memory to, for example, as it involves the base architecture.

  • IPad 2 will not accept Apple id and will not let me do anything on it. It just keeps popping up on my screen

    iPad 2 will not accept Apple id and will not let me do anything on it. It just keeps popping up on my screen

    Don't know how it happens. Have you signed in successfully with your Apple ID in App Store or iCloud? Is your iPad connected to network?
    You should make sure that your iPad is connected to a stable network. And then you should type in the correct Apple ID password.

  • My ipod touch is all of a sudden not letting me do anything that requires my password. I can buy apps or anything. I put in my password and it gives me an error and says try again later. It works fine if I am accessing the store thru my computer. Help?

    My ipod touch is all of a sudden not letting me do anything that requires using my password. I can't buy anything and I can't check my purchases. Every time I put in my password I get an error message and it says try again later. This has been happening for 4 days now. I can play my existing games just fine. I can access my itunes store through the internet just fine with my password, but just not on my ipod touch. I sent an email to the itunes support store 3 days ago and have not heard back from them. Does anybody have any suggestions on why this is happening all of a sudden after having the ipod for almost 2 years?

    Something you can try is resetting it all Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings. Or go to Settings > Store & sign out & log back in. Another thing you can do is restore your ipod. This has happened to me but the only thing i did was that i created a new account but try doing the things above i just told you. :)

  • HT5312 So I have a problem with iTunes not letting me download anything without first responding to some security questions which I don't remember setting up, how can fix it? Oh, and it won't let me reset the questions either!

    So I have a problem with iTunes not letting me download anything without first responding to some security questions which I don't remember setting up, how can fix it? Oh, and it won't let me reset the questions either!

    If you mean that you aren't getting the reset link, then from the page that you posted from :
    Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so. 
    You can contact iTunes Support in your country via this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    You have no choice but to restore the phone.
    However, I'm sure you've been smart enough to have backed up your data before starting the most significant update in iOS history,right?
