New Flash Chart Region Crashes Browsers

Hi, I have an application to which I'd like to add a new flash chart region. However, whenever I try to follow the wizard to add the flash chart region, I cannot get past the step where you select the type of chart without crashing my browser. This happens in IE6, Firefox 3, and Chrome, even if I take all the defaults.
I have Flash Player 10 installed (new computer). This has worked in the past, but it no longer works for me. My colleague has no problem using Adobe Flash 9.
Thank you, Wolf Moritz

Hi, for some reason I was able to resolve this issue, but I'm not sure exactly how or why. I spent hours on this problem, but this morning it works.
I uninstalled Adobe Flash using their uninstaller (for the third time), then installed Flash 9 for Windows and tested it in IE6 - and it worked fine. Then I was prompted to install the Flash plugin in Firefox 3 (which downloaded Flash 10), which in turn upgraded my Flash for windows, too.
Now it all works. However, I'll take a look at Flash Tracer, sounds like a useful tool.
Thanks, Wolf Moritz

the common thing here seems to be that news type videos crash and entertainment type don't. also videos seem more likely to crash on internet portals like yahoo

I need help with new flash player constantly crashing

Ever since updating the flash player it is constantly crashing. I have updated firefox also which constantly crashes. Firefox is pointing the finger at the flash player..... I need someone who will work with me step by step as i am not a computer tech. The two websites i visit that the flash player crashes on is www.myspace.com while playing mobsters and mafia wars, and www.smallworlds.com which is a 3d interactive " chat room ". I have tried removing the flash player and going with an older version, but it continues to kick me to the updated version...Please help!

Hi, thanks for your Flash file info. You have the SWFlash.ocx that is old. Right click on that one and Remove/Delete it.
Your SWF plug-in is correct as well as the remainder of your Flash files. The SWFlash.ocx that needs removed is conflicting.
The Windows Firewall should be used. Now I see that you have not updated to the Windows XP Service Pack 3, which is the latest. I would recommend that you do that. Many improvements and security issues are included in that. You can go to the Microsoft site for that.
After you do that, Microsoft has the Microsoft Security Essentials which is a free program and has the Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware features. It does not include a Firewall nor are there any browser add ons that would conflict with your browser, other add ons or Flash Player.
I'm not sure of the system requirements for the MSE, but check. You may need the updated Service Pack first. Before you Install the MSE tho, make sure no other anti-virus is still Installed. The one you mentioned needs Uninstalled and you need to check if they have an Uninstaller and do that first.
Whether you do any of what I suggested or not, you need to Remove that SWFlash.ocx. I would reboot(restart) your computer afterwards.
P.S. Firefox has updated to 3.6.8 and you can do that anytime.
Thanks,
eidnolb

Flash Player Failure (CRASHING BROWSERS)

Im using Chrome & Safari
Everytime Chrome & Safari crash (Chrome Gets to 176,000k{s}) (Safari gets to 250,000k{s})
Ive used this fourm before, ive submitted bug request, but nothing is resolved. it aint "Video Playback Issues" as said before.
Please Help!

Safari 5 hasn't been maintained for a couple years and has a bunch of security issues. You should just delete it at this point. For real.
The RAM values are actually pretty reasonable. My guess is that this is related to a video driver, but there's not a lot of information here.
You can try the video troubleshooting guide. In particular, pay attention to the section about disabling hardware acceleration.
Video playback issues

The new version of firefox, which installed WITHOUT my approval, FORCED an update to Adobe Flash. This new Flash plugin crashes over and over and over - to the point that I cannot use firefox anymore. This is one very angry customer. Argh.

firefox installed update without approval. big NO NO.

Bug: Flash charts and "Region Header" property

Hi,
it looks like that the a Flash Chart region doesn't renders the text of the "Region Header" property in the header of the region, instead it is rendered in the footer of the region.
See http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=2672:1 for an example.
For SVG Charts it works.

Hi Marco,
thanks for the tip with the DIV and the BR. Both work.
Maybe it would be a good idea to add the DIV by default, otherwise people could think that the region header/footer function is broken.

Flash Player 10 crashing while streaming an MP3

I am currently building a streaming MP3 application, but have run into a problem. If I stream my MP3 using Flash Player 10.0.12 or older it works great. However, if I use Flash Player 10.0.22 or newer, Flash Player is crashing. It is happening primarily in IE, but I have had it crash in FireFox and Chrome as well. IE 6 is crashing almost instantly in my XP scenario. When I use Flash 10.0.12 the MP3 streams flawlessly in all of my test environments. Has anyone encountered similar problems while streaming an MP3 using the latest Flash player?
My test scenarios:
Vista Ultimate
IE7 / FireFox 3.5 / Chrome 3.0
Flash 10.0.32 (fail) / Flash 10.0.22 (fail) / Flash 10.0.12 (success) / 9.0.246 (success)
XP (32-bit)
IE 6 / FireFox 3.0 / Chome 3.0
Flash 10.0.32 (fail) / Flash 10.0.22 (fail) / Flash 10.0.12 (success) / 9.0.246 (success)
I am using the SWF Sound project in my solution: http://code.google.com/p/swfsound/
I have been able to capture several debug logs per Adobe's support instructions, but am still awaiting approval to submit them to the bug database. Any help or information is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Jeremy Tolsdorf

Hi, The only general information that I could give you is to try turning off the hardware acceleration feature, which is turned on by default. You right click any video, Settings, Display Settings and UN check the H.A. It has also been recommended to update the graphic and video drivers to the latest versions. If that doesn't work, then there is some other conflict on the system. Anti-Virus and or add ons in the browsers(s) Now this is assuming that Flash Player is Installed correctly, along with the IE and non-IE browsers that Flash Player supports.
This site explains the hardware acceleration:

Hope this helps.

Flash Chart Printing Help

Hi Everyone,
I have a question regarding printing of a flash chart region. I created flash charts using several chart series of pl/sql code that are functions returning SQL queries (generates my dynamic SQL query).
We have our printing configured to use BI Publisher and works with report regions, but how do I have this functionality for flash charts?
I attempted going down the route of creating report layouts using report queries, but when specifying the source query, it only allows SQL and no option for functions returning SQL queries (does not let me use PL/SQL code). Is there a solution for this?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Luis

Link to a page that will branch to different pages based on a page item that is sent via the chart link.
For example:
Create Page 220 with an hidden item P220_TABLE.
On Page 220 create a branch to the page for your 'COMPANIES' table with a condition of Value of Item / Column in Expression 1 = Expression 2, Expression 1: P220_TABLE, Expression 2: COMPANIES
Create additional branches for each table page.
Go back and edit your chart series and edit the Action Link fields.
Action Link: Link to Custom Target
Target: Page in this Application
Page: +220+
Request: BRANCH_TO_PAGE_ACCEPT
Name--
Item 1: P53_TABLE Value: +#LABEL#+

Use flash charts from multiple base URLs

My APEX apps are hosted by a shared service provider who uses a front end proxy. Following the instructions in this forum, I was able to get flash charts to work by substituting my client URL for #HOST#.
Example, Change:
<embed src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#flashchart/
#CHART_TYPE#.swf?XMLFile=#HOST#apex_util.flash?p=&APP_ID.:5:&APP_SESSION.:FL
OW_FLASH_CHART_R#REGION_ID#"
to
<embed src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#flashchart/#CHART_TYPE#.swf?XMLFile=
http://mydomain.hostingcompany.com/pls/apex/apex_util.flash?p=&APP_ID.:5:&APP
_SESSION.:FLOW_FLASH_CHART_R#REGION_ID# "
I changed this base url in multiple locations in the chart source code and the charts now work.
THE PROBLEM
Users access the site via a public domain http://www.xyz.com. In order to get the charts to work I then need to change #HOST# to http://www.xyz.com/pls/apex. Then they no longer work when accessing via http://mydomain.hostingcompany.com/pls/apex.
Is there some way to get the charts to work irrespective of which path users take to get to the site?
ANOTHER PROBLEM
Though the above fix works for stand alone flash charts it does not work for the charts in interactive reports or the sample charts displayed when using the chart builder wizard in the application builder.
Is there somewhere to change in order to get the sample charts in the create chart wizard in application builder and/or the charts in interactive reports?

Hello,
Take a look at this thread -
Re: #HOST# variable at Flash chart region source
Which discusses the issue.

Flash Plug-in Crashes across all browsers despite re-install

About a week ago, my MacBook's Firefox browser started crashing whenever I checked my hotmail or Youtube, failing to load the flash content in either a banner add or the Youtube video, I uninstalled flash, and the problem went away, only now I am unable to visit youtube or access any flash content on the internet. The problem extends across browsers to Safari and despite reinstalling, trying to revert to an old flash player, even downloading the full trial version of Flash from this website on the suggestion of a tech support person from this site, I have been unsuccessful. The browser crashes whenever it comes across any flash content.
Can you help me?

I left it at 10.0.12.36

I support a bunch of Mac users and one of them (10.5.7 MBP) ran into this same
problem last week with both Safari and Firefox crashing with the flash player
plugin. If I removed the Flash Player plugin and the .xpt file there was no
crashing but no flash either. I used a combination of different suggestions and
here's what finally worked (so far anyway):
Show package contents for Firefox/Contents/MacOS/components and Get Info
changing perms for read/write for everyone.
Re-installed shockwave plugin using the customized full install (this made no
sense to me since I had made no change to shockwave but as I was testing the
browsers I was prompted to install it, so I did)
Repaired permissions
The version of the Flash Player plugin that ended up installed on this Mac is
10.0.12.36. I started off installing the newer and recommended 10.0.22.87
version but it didn't fix anything. I inadvertently went backwards as I moved
plugins in and out of the Library. I didn't want to change anything once it was
working so I left it at the older version. I hope this helps someone else.

My new flash player crashes on my computer

Hi, You may want to go to this site: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/. Right click on the Flash logo, Settings,
then UNcheck the hardware acceleration in Display Settings.
Then make sure that in IE you have the Security Setting for the Internet Zone set to Medium.
Hope that helps,

Display Dynamic HTML beside Flash Chart in Chart Region

Hello,
I have a vertical 3D flash chart with some categories I,II,IV... on x-axix. I have to show a legend beside the chart dynamically depending on the categories displayed like (I - PC, II - TV, IV-Laptop....) First I tried to do this with static data. I modified, Region Source of Chart region to include the legend. I am successful to create a table & put some static html code. Now I want this to be dynamic.
I found that with shotcuts I can put dynamic HTML code. I created shortcut with PL/SQL & successfully displayed them in a 'HTML REGION WITH SHORTCUTS', but I want that in Chart Region, not as a separate region. Shortcut is not working in Chart region.
How can I achieve this? Is there a way to call a process or substitution string or some thing from Chart Region to display my legend dynamically beside the chart.
Experts any hint is appreciated.
Sowji.

Experts,
Can you please give any hint how this can be achieved? If I keep the dynamic legend as HTML with Shortcut region, the width & height are not matching with the chart region as it is dynamic. Also, I am unable to combine both 'chart' & 'html with shortcut' region to look like one region. So I am looking for options to insert the dynamic html in to chart region.

Firefox updated - forced to install new Flash - doesn't work, but does in other browsers

Auto-update to latest Firefox. Loaded, then warned to load new Flash. Done. It works in my other browsers fine, but only shows me non-functioning images in Firefox. (When I go to YouTube).
They don't appear at all in one of my sites - but work fine in other browsers.
I have; "Plug-ins up to date" in my Flash check.

The problem seems to be related to Flash and Video drivers. Try updating your video drivers first of all.
As a temporary workaround try hovering your cursor over the place where the pop-out button should be below the YouTube video screen, then left click there. The video will then display in the pop-out screen.

Open Link in new window on Flash Chart

Is there a way to make the link in a flash chart open in a new window?
Thanks!

Apex 3.1 Anychart 3.3 Oracle 10g.

Hi John,
You can use javascript to do that. An example how your query of the chart can look like:
SELECT 'javascript:popupURL(''http://www.google.com'');' LINK,
       ENAME LABEL,
       SAL VALUE
FROM   EMPRegards,

Flash-based uploaders crashing on all Mac browsers

I'm going to try to be as level-headed as possible with this, but to be frank, I am becoming furiously pissed after dealing with this issue for at least a month now...
Every single Flash-based uploader I use troughout the web causes my Flash Player to crash about 75% of the time. I've tried Safari 5.1, Firefox 6.0.2 and Chrome 14.0.835.186 with Flash Player 10.3.183.10 with fairly consistent results. Nearly every time I go to upload something, it immediately take down the Flash Player in that browser. I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling, clearing cache, disabling other plugins and just about everything I can think of to no avail.
I'm on a Intel Mac Pro running 64bit Snow Leopard. This problem has just appeared in the last month or so (probably about the time of the last Flash Player release) and is hindering my ability to effectively do my job.
Is anybody else having this issue?

I haven't run across this, though I did see a Firefox fileupload bug yesterday (https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=2980517). Would you mind opening a new bug on this over at bugbase.adobe.com? Please include URLs where you're seeing this behavior and we'll investigate further.
Thanks,
Chris
