Hi!
I have a pop up window which goes full screen when opens
(index_pop.html).
In index_pop.html I have a flash movie (swf) set to 100%. It
is meant to
take over the screen entirely. The problem I have is in
Safari and IE, it
works fine but when tested on Firefox, it is this tiny movie
while
index_pop.html opens to a full window. Is there anyway I can
work around
this?
Thank you.
°K.

Flash not rendering correctly in IE using Spry and SWFObject.

Hi,
Tools that I'm using (Flash, Spry and SWFObject)
I just finished converting portions of the image gallery to a
video gallery using FLV Files.
It works great in FireFox and Opera, I guess all mozilla
based browsers.
Now my problem is that I pass the Path variable to Flash for
it to load the FLV file using SWFObject.
Code:
<div spry:detailregion="dsVideos"
class="AccordionPanelContent">
<div id="flashcontent"> You need to upgrade your Flash
Player. </div>
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
var so = new SWFObject("VideoPlayer.swf", "videoplayer",
"427", "288", "8", "#161616");
so.addVariable("video", "{@path}");
so.write("flashcontent");
// ]]>
</script>
</div>
The FLV files won't load at all in IE meaning the variable is
not going thru when Flash is rendered for a second time.
So I added another variable just to see Flash reaction once
the page loaded for the first time.
Code:
so.addVariable("Variable1", "I Love This Bug!");
I added Variable1 to the Flash Movie as a textbox and It
loads in a split second for the first render but when Spry loads it
datasets and renders the region where Flash resides the variable
doesnt go thru and Flash gets a undefined variable.
When Spry renders that region the video variable is not going
thru and no video is shown. :(
Any suggestion?

Don -
Have you had any success here? I've been trying to get any
kind of Flash
to load properly in IE in a spry:region (or :detailregion),
and have
failed entirely.
I added spry:state="ready" to the div with the Flash movie,
but no fix.
I've tested with both IE 6 and IE 7 beta, and with FP 8 and
FP 9.
I have a few test pages (everything works great in FireFox):
- www.imagicdigital.com/portfolios/video_state7.html
(uses SWFObject to write the movie, with spry info as
FlashVars)
IE: Flash movie is hidden. No FlashVars are passed.
- www.imagicdigital.com/portfolios/video_state7_noso.html
(same page as above, but with the standard Object/Embed tags,
no SWFObject)
IE: Flash movie is hidden. No FlashVars are passed.
- www.imagicdigital.com/portfolios/video_state7a_noso.html
(same page as above but with hardcoded FlashVars)
IE: Flash movie is hidden. No FlashVars are passed.
- www.imagicdigital.com/portfolios/video_state7b_noso.html
(a Flash movie with no FlashVars at all)
IE: Flash movie is hidden.
- www.imagicdigital.com/portfolios/video_state7c_noso.html
(same as 7a but with spry:region removed from the flash div)
IE: Works perfectly. Flash movie shows up, FlashVars are
passed.
I noticed a few things:
- In IE, the spry:debug generated markup shows FlashVars="",
empty.
- I don't see an innerHTML fix call for the FlashVideo div,
even if I
make it into a spry:region instead of detailregion. Can this
help omehow?
- In IE 7, if I right-click where my flash movie is supposed
to show up,
it does become visible (with no FlashVars). However, IE often
crashes
after that, either right away or on window close. The error
shown in
the alert is "Out of Memory at Line 56". This is both with
and without
passing FlashVars.
NOTE: This error was just recently discussed on the SWFObject
mailing
list. Geoff Stearns found a sort of bug in FP 9 that was also
causing
this same error when 2 Flash movies were embedded with
SWFObject and
each making different ExternalInterface calls. He fixed it by
removing
the function written by Flash when it loads called
"__flash_unloadHandler()". Link to the relevant discussion
thread:
http://lists.deconcept.com/htdig.cgi/swfobject-deconcept.com/2006-July/000795.html
It would be great (crucial, I think) to get Spry to work with
SWFs. Any
ideas or progress? Thanks in advance.

Gradient Tool not Rendering at 100% opacity

I'm trying to create a gradient in Photoshop, but the gradient isn't rendering at 100% opacity. The layer is set at 100%, and when I inspect the colors in the gradient box, they are both at 100%. When I add the gradient though, it comes over at about 70%. It does it even with the preset gradients in Photoshop. Anyone have an idea of what setting is out of whack and how to fix it?

I completely missed the opacity setting for the tool in the top toolbar. That was the issue. Thanks.

The page and the swf file are in the same folder: "visor". I cand show the swf file with a jsp or html page. I want to do it with jspx, but the swf file never loads up.I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.3.0

Can you access your deployed swf file with a direct URL to it?
If you use that URL inside your JSF code does it work?

Tables not rendering correctly in Firefox

I recently switched from Dreamweaver 8 to CS4. I also
recently updated my Firefox to 3.06. I have had this website for
years, and it just started not rendering tables correctly in
Firefox. This is happening on multiple pages It works fine in IE.
http://www.wiw.uscourts.gov/bankruptcy/
Let me say up front, I know the page is antiquated (created
in Front Page) It uses tables for the layout instead of CSS. I hope
to be updating it soon, but for now I need a fix to get the pages
to work correctly.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Becky

Excel attachment not rendering correctly in Mail but fine on iPod touch

Some attachments (most notably Excel files) that I've been receiving lately (last month or so) have not showed up correctly as attachments in Mail (currently using v. 4.4). In the list view it shows the paperclip icon but when I click on the message the preview pane shows what I assume is mime code or something. If I check the same message on my iPod touch, the attachment shows up at the bottom of the message as an attached file icon (correctly identified as an Excel spreadsheet). Suggestions?

Colours not rendering correctly in terminal

Hi,
I have just installed Arch on my laptop, and I am getting everything setup. When I run alsamixer something goes wrong, the screenshot below speaks a thousand words.
When I use the arrow keys to change widget focus the previous widget tends to disappear all together. When I exit alsamixer the terminal is useless, typically no text is shown. The terminal does accept input however.
The problem is reproducable in both XFCE4 Terminal and xterm. My .bashrc looks like
alias ls='ls --color=auto --group-directories-first'
alias grep='grep --color'
alias ll='ls -lh'
export PAGER='/bin/less'
export EDITOR='/usr/bin/vim'
export PATH=~/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:$PATH
export PS1='\[\e[32m\]\h \[\e[0m\]\$ '
export MPD_HOST=127.0.0.1 MPD_PORT=6600
complete -cf sudo man which
Another thing to note is that the problem affects all open terminals, not just the one alsamixer was run on. Also, once in a rare while 'grep --color' can produce the same effect.

Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?

I'm using Firefox 3.6.8 (and sometimes IE 8.0.6001.18702IC) on Windows XP Pro, SP 3.
For some weeks now, I have been unable to hear any sounds on anything Flash-based, from YouTube to games at MSN.com or embedded videos on any site using Flash. Initially I had assumed it to be because of having QuickTime installed because I know QT likes to hijack everything. I uninstalled QT (and Real Player) and Flash Player then reinstalled Flash Player (and Shockwave Player just in case) and guess what?
Yup. Nothing. When I uninstalled everything, I used a program called Revo Uninstaller, which includes a registry cleaning option. I then used Abexo and WinASO's registry cleaners to make sure I got everything else that even looked like QuickTime off my hard drive.
When I reinstalled Flash, the following programs appeared in C:\Windows\system 32\Macromed\Flash:
Flash 10i.ocx (10.1.82.76)
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX (10.1.82.76)
FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.82.76)
genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll (10.1.82.76)
NPSWF32.dll (10.1.82.76)
KB931433
FlashInstall
Install
Flashplayer.xpt
When I check IE's "Tools" and look for add-ons, it says that Flash (Shockwave Flash) is enabled. I even enabled the other Adobe add-ons for Acrobat and such just to be sure. Firefox shows Shockwave Flash and Shockwave for Director both to be enabled. The Flash control panel settings don't help: I have all sites set to store about 100 KB on my computer to make sure there's enough room for everything but still nothing.
Before anyone asks, my audio drivers are up to date, thanks to the manufacturer's website. I have DirectX 9.0c installed and everything else works fine. I can play audio and video elsewhere with no problems. It's only Flash that's showing me this trouble and there's no hint as to what else could be interfering with Flash.
Any ideas?

Well, great. I tried the uninstall/reinstall before, but not with the uninstaller, so I was hopeful that this time might do it. No such luck. The video still plays, but no sound.
All the sound settings are working with everything else from games to media players. I set Windows' firewall to allow both the ActiveX and plugin for Flash, just in case.
In the Flash folder, I now have:
Flash10l.ocx (10.1.102.64)
Flash Util10l_ActiveX (10.1.102.64)
FlashUtil10l_Plugin (10.1.102.64)
Genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
FlashUtil10l_ActiveX.dll (10.1.102.64)
NPSWF32.dll (10.1.102.64)
And the setup and text files that went with 'em.
I've also done a system restart since then and zip.
I went through IE and Firefox and looked for any file associations (like .flv) that I could manually change over to using Flash, but no go. The settings panels for Flash have all been set to allow YouTube specifically (as a test) and to allow 10KB of storage space for all affected sites.
Now what? I'm really not looking forward to a reformat and reinstall, but it's looking like that's what it's going to take.

Subject: Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?
Something is strange with your list of modules; you list FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.102.64), but this is really 10.1.85.3
I recommend that you uninstall Flash Player completely (using http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html), then restart Windows, and delete all remaining files in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash.
Next reinstall both ActiveX (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe) and the plugin (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe).
After that, if the problem persists, have a look at this page http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83739.html

Server Side Includes not rendering correctly in Firefox with Layers

Hi
The server side includes are not correctly rendering with layers in firefox. From my site here:-
http://www.osteriastecca.com/index.php
the home_page.php content renders above a layer on the index.php page. Initially I thought this might be a Flash layer issue but the wmode is set correctly to transparent and it works fine with a normal ssi. It also works fine in Firefox without a server side include as you can see here:-
http://www.osteriastecca.com/index_old.php
Works fine in IE and Safari, but not Firefox.
How can this be rectified?
Regards
Glennyboy

What testing server setup do you have? Are you using something like WAMP?
What do you see on screen which tells you the SSIs are not rendering? Any error message?

Flash Forms Not Rendering in IE7, Flash 9

We're having a problem with flash forms in IE7 and Flash
Player 9 not rendering the entire form. The form works fine in
Firefox 2. It looks to be a problem with how the Flash player is
able to pull back data in IE7. Likely this pertains to how IE7
handles security of plug-ins.
Oddly, we've noticed that uninstalling the Flash 9 player and
then reinstalling results in the form rendering correctly the first
time, but on subsequent views the form no longer renders correctly.
Specifically, we're not seeing data that is being called via
Flash remoting in cfselect tags (state and country information).
And we're not seeing text rendered that is in cfformitem tags. Our
dev url is:
http://hopeequity.beaconfire.com/loggedout/index.cfm?event=StartInvesting_StartAGroupStep1
If anyone has an idea of why IE7 might not be able to render
the form correctly, or might have security-related issues with
remoting and Flash 9, please reply.

I was granted access to the manuals on our prod server (the
site is set up where you have to log in to see the manuals). The
manuals are behaving differently on the prod server than in our dev
server. The following is happening on the prod server:
- the flash menus are appearing on our prod server in FireFox
only.
- I had reported in our dev area that when I right clicked on
the left hand side where the menus are to appear in IE that the
Flash menu displayed. This is not the case in our production area.
- I get the "This page contains both secure and nonsecure
items" when viewing the site on our prod server through IE
I've asked them what version of RoboHelp they are using and
no one seems to know. It seems they don't regenerate their help
files (manuals) very often.

Firefox 34 unstable. Plugins blocked, Flash not working, cannot update Flash. Cannot update FLASH, as Adobe not offering update.

Repeated crashes with latest Firefox Version 34, running on Win XP SP3. Older Firefox version worked flawlessly. Update was a bad idea, as "security" fixes now block Flash from working. Attempt to update via Adobe cause further problems. Repeated crashes of internal program "plugin-container.exe". Poor product now, fails to provide the basic functionality - ie. viewing Flash video - that most web-brower users require. This solution was "solved" and worked fine, but stupid decisions appear to have been taken to block Flash, rather than fix the security vulnerabilites. Can't the leaky Adobe code just be "sandboxed" so code execution outside of a defined memory area is made impossible? About 1 billion global users rely on Flash, as most
video delivery websites use it. Just "blocking" the plugin is an arrogant goof's solution to the security problem.
But Adobe seems to have become obnoxious about not allowing or offering upgrades or fixes of Flash.
Recommended solution seems to be to download and install Dolphin browser, which is built to at least include Flash support internally.
Question: <nowiki>**********</nowiki>
Is there a recommended way to get the Flash plugin installed and working correctly in a recent version of Firefox???
Step by step instructions should be provided.

It is almost 2015, and software development seems to be going retrograde, with "enhancements" simply crashing existing systems, and causing more problems than are solved. No wonder everyone is just disabling upgrades once they get a working
system. I deeply regret upgrading to Firefox Ver. 34, as it does not run Flash video correctly now.

*** SOLVED *** !!!
I was having strange problems re. Youtube+Flash website.
Turned out to be some hard-coded ip-redirection in my "hosts" file.
I found it by searching and reading all the "youtube" related Mozilla FIrefox support forums. Thanx for this forum, guys. It is a good resource. And I apologize for my cranky, petulant initial comment. It was inappropriate. The error was mine completely.
Problem was an old hard-coded fix that I put into my HOSTS file, on my Windows XP, SP3 machine. Specifically, I had experienced hang issues with a site called "i.ytimg.com", which I believe is the static cache for Google/Youtube stuff. I tracked this error down to failures of security certificates, but confirmed my security cert store was isometric between my machine cluster (they were all the damn same!)
So, I had put two lines in the HOSTS file, to hard-code an IP address so that Google-youtube pages would not hang up waiting for "i.ytimg.com"
Well, of course, Google/Youtube is now using different locations, or akami servers or some damn thing...
The fix just involved removing these two hard-coded lines from my HOSTS file. I just commented the old fix out, and now everything works.
<pre>
# --- two lines added to fix i.ytimg.com hang problem
# 74.125.162.39 static.cache.l.google.com s.ytimg.com
# 74.125.162.39 static.cache.l.google.com i.ytimg.com
</pre>
(The # symbol is used to make a comment in hosts file... )
On Windows XP, XP3, the "hosts" file is typically located in:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
If you are having goofy problems with some youtube/google webpages
not rendering, or generating SSL (bad_certificate) errors, check your
"hosts" file, and ensure no ip redirection has been slotted in there
from a while back.
Hope this helps others...

Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1?

Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1 64, If i try and play a video I get the message to install Flashplayer.
If I try and install it it says it is already installed. Your onsite installer says it is not applicable to my machine.
I have followed all the normal steps re enabling addons and active filters etc.
all to no avail Pc is Dell 6 months old, Flashplayer has never worked on this machine. Last MS update mid Dec 2014.
Version of flashplayer is 15....03.......

Flash Player is a built-in component of Internet Explorer. There's nothing separate to download or install.
Firefox requires a different version of Flash Player (the NPAPI plug-in), which will be served to you if you go here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer using Firefox; however, there are some unique stability issues related to Firefox on Win8.1, and you're probably better off using Google Chrome if you want a more optimal experience with Flash Player.
For problems where IE isn't being detected by sites that require Flash:
First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

Flash not playing on Mac OS 10.6.8, Flash 11.8.800.94, Firefox 22.0

Flash not playing on Mac OS 10.6.8, Flash 11.8.800.94, Firefox 22.0
Let me also say this flash does work in Safari... just not Firefox. When a flash media link is clicked on FF will go to the link but only a black window appears with no text or error messages or sound.
As far as I know I am running the latest version of Firefox and Flash. I have no plans to upgrade from Snow Leopord to Lion.
Another possible data point for this is Flash updates do not install just by clicking on the download. The DMG downloads but I get an unknown data type when it trys to launch. There is an easy work-around for this be simply launching the DMG from Finder where it runs just fine.
Any thoughts as to why Firefox is not running Flash media files?

See: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5560631#5560631
Also, check Tools>Addons to be sure the latest plugin is enabled

IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use. You need to install the Plugin version of Flash for Firefox.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
Save it to your Desktop.<br />
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
