Photo Stack swf works in IE but not Firefox
Would anyone know why the photo stack flash gallery won't work in Firefox? IE works fine. I'm fairly sure its just a bit of syntax i'm missing, or a compatibility issue.
I am using a .swf file which imports images in using an xm
l file and then displays them as a stack of photos which can then be rotated and looked through.
This is the code i'm using to embed it on the page.
=====================
<object id="flashmovie" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="/menu_items/gallery_swf/gallery.swf" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" width="550" height="400" >
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="/menu_items/gallery_swf/gallery.swf" />
<param name="FLASHVARS" value="path=/san/www/somewhere.com/htdocs/home/ProspectiveStudents/InternationalStudents/ afolder/afolderphotos/">
<embed src="/menu_items/gallery_swf/gallery.swf" width="550" height="400" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>
</object>
=======================
And this is the Actionscript code within the swf, as I think it may be causing the issue
================
MovieClip.prototype.addProperty("onLoad", function () {
return __onLoadHandler__[this];
}, function (f) {
if (__onLoadHandler__ == undefined) {
_global.__onLoadHandler__ = {};
__onLoadHandler__[this] = f;
Math.easeInQuad = function(t, b, c, d) {
return c*(t /= d)*t+b;
Math.easeOutQuad = function(t, b, c, d) {
return -c*(t /= d)*(t-2)+b;
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
myXML = new XML();
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
myXML.onLoad = function() {
nodes = myXML.childNodes;
// find first image
if (topimage.length) {
for (var i = 0; i<nodes.length; i++) {
if (nodes[i].attributes.src == topimage) {
var insert = nodes.slice(0, i);
nodes.splice(0, i);
nodes = nodes.concat(insert);
_root.gotoAndStop(2);
if (_url.indexOf("http")>-1) {
myXML.load("http://somewhere.com/menu_items/gallery_swf/gallery.php?querystring=" + path);
} else {
myXML.load("gallery.xml");
stop();
===========================
I export it as Flashplayer ver 6, and actionscript ver 1.0. Changing versions didn't make it work.

I go to '''www.thegarden.com''' I click on the tab '''View Full Calendar'''. It does not open. It works on AOL but not Firefox. And for some reason it also does not work when I use Internet Explorer. The majority of times when I click on that tab (in Firefox) it does not work. On a rare occasion it will open. I am not doing anything differently either time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

Web sites containing mms links work in IE but not Firefox 4.0
Web sites containing mms links work in IE but not Firefox 4.0. when I play the video in IE, I go into IE, and locate the mms link under properties, when I right click. If I copy the mms link form IE directly into firefox, it will work. There ought to be a better way to do this. Also, I am using a hardware firewall, not a software firewall, and no proxy.
You need to use the file:// protocol, but you may still encounter problems if you fix that.

Navigation works in IE but not Firefox or Safari!
Hi guys
Why do my nav links on the hompage work in IE but not in Firefox and Safari? http://www.jasonkieck.com/
Any help would be appreciatedThe main reason is you have a <div id="bg_grid"> at the end of your html that is essentially over the top of everything else on your page, including your links. All clicks go to that <div> rather than your links undeneath it. I'm kind of surprised it works in IE to be honest.
You do also have a ton of errors as Gramps points out, but that particular issue is not technically an error, so I have a feeling you could fix the ~100 problems shown by the validator and still have the issue.
You could use z-index to "order the stack" as it were. Changing the z-index attributes for the css of those elements will allow you to change their order, regardless of their location in the html. A higher z-index number, the "closer" it is to the viewer (higher on the stack).
Right now, they are both set to 1, so the one that comes later in the html is on top.
Adding z-index:999 to the menu <div> should do it, -
Spry menubar works in IE, but not Firefox
I added a very simple Spry horizontal menubar to the top of all pages in my web (I'm using DWCS4 and Spry 1.6). When I preview it in Firefox locally, it seems to work, but when it is uploaded to the web server it works in IE, but not in Firefox. Instead of a menubar, I see a stack of bulleted hyperlinks. In IE, it displays properly.
Website is http://www.stevegoldman.com.
How can I fix this problem so that it works with all browsers properly?
-- MartinI just tested your site with firefox (latest version) and it works just fine. I also tested it in IE: 7.0 and it worked fine for that too. Looks like you have either fixed the problem or you have a different version of firefox than me or something.

Medical app from Intuit works in IE, but not Firefox.
Encrypted medical app works in new IE, but not Firefox. Everything works down to the end, and click on "continue" and nothing happens. A tech and I have spent hours on this. Did not work on FF5 or 6. Did not work on old IE, but did on fresh new version with no data files copied in.
If it works in IE but not FF, then it has nothing to do with the mp3s. More likely it's because of the HTML on the page.
To start, page is missing DOCTYPE declaration... a MAJOR problem. The DOCTYPE declares which set of rules the browser will use to display the page. Without it, different browsers go crazy or do not work at all.

My website works in IE but not firefox
this is my web page:
http://www.andrew-leonard.co.uk/Mallorca/mallorca%20ferns.htm
It usess css to define layers and javascript to show and hide the layers. It uses a dhtml menu system by Milonic to execute the javascript
This is part of the code for the layers:
<pre><nowiki><style type="text/css">
#Layer01 {position: absolute; left: 300px; top: 50px; z-index:1;}
#Layer33 {position: absolute; left: 300px; top: 50px; z-index:33;}
</style></nowiki></pre>
This is part of the javascript to show/hide the layers:
<pre><nowiki><script>
function showlayer(layer){
var myLayer = document.getElementById(layer).style.display;
if(myLayer=="none"){
document.getElementById(layer).style.display="block";
} else {
document.getElementById(layer).style.display="none";
</script></nowiki></pre>
It works OK in IE but not firefoxIf you check Firefox's Web Console (Ctrl+Shift+K) it'll tell you any errors it's finding and the line of code it's finding it on.
The problem it seems to be having up front is that IDs are case-sensitive - "layer02" is not the same as "Layer02", for example.
There may be further errors once it's past that, but all the current browsers come with the tools you need to weed out any further issues.

their login page does not recognize my entry. Just keeps going back to page and says logon. It does work on Internet Explorer but not Firefox.
This - http://www.google.com/firefox - is the old Firefox Start Page used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox, I don't think it is being maintained.
Starting with the Firefox 4 version, Firefox is using a "local" Start Page with the address of '''about:home'''. It looks similar to the old Start Page, but it isn't exactly the same. -
Url links in swf work in standalone, but not when opened in browser
I am currently using flash to create an electronic press kit.
In that, i have 2 links to youtube (since embedding the videos was
not an option, making the file too large), and one link to
yousendit for the viewer to be able to download a pdf file.
Now when i open the swf by double clicking on it (which i can
do, but when on another computer, that has flash player installed,
the swf will not open unless opened through a browser....not sure
if that is just something where you can open an swf strictly by
itself only if you actually have flash or what....that is another
issue), but anyways, when i open the swf by itself, the links work
correctly. once opened through a browser, the links do not work.
Safari error:
Adobe flash player has stopped a potentially unsafe
operation.
The following local application of your computer or network:
(location of swf on harddisk)
is trying to communicate with this internet-enabled location:
youtube.com
To let this application communicate with the internet, click
SETTINGS.
You must restart this application after changing your
settings.
Of course i did that, and it didnt happen.
My question is however, even if this is a simple security
issue/setting within the browser, is there any way to get around
this? Because when sending this press kit out, the last thing i
want is for the viewer to have to take the time to change their
browser settings and try to get this to work and all that stuff.
Any help would be appreciated.
You can also download this swf at the following link:
http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.ph...661F585ACE0521The reason the swf doesn't open up by itself on other
computers is that it needs a Stand Alone Flash Player to do so.
Most people have the Flash plug-in for their browsers, but not the
stand alone player. If you are sending it out as a self contained
file you need to make a Projector file. It contains the SA + swf in
one file, which adds weight. Also, you need to make a Windows one
and and a Mac one. If you are using CS3, I think you can make a
Abobe AIR app that is universal, granted you install the free AIR
plug-in controlls for Flash ( I THINK. My knowlege is not totally
up to date) .
As for the links not working in the browser, its seems like
they should work. Your posted link for the file is broken, so
couldn't see. What is your code for the buttons? Are you calling
JavaScript in your html page? I've had problem with that usually a
syntax error or IE.

Photo Gallery - works in Safari but not Firefox .. ?
Hi,
I have a photo gallery at http://www.sg-karting.com/Racing/Photos/Photos.html
When I go into the albums, pictures are displayed in Safari but not on Firefox.
When creating this page on iWeb I selected 'Web Gallery' instead of 'Album'. Does this make any difference?
Regards.I have just visited "http://www.sg-karting.com/Racing/Photos/Pages/KartingEdgeRound-1.html" using both Safari Version 3.0.4 (523.12) and Firefox version 2.0.0.9 on a G4 PB 10.4.11. And both browsers displayed the same information from what I can see. All the pictures revealed themselves.
Have I picked the correct album for your example?
I tried other area's of your web site and all appeared to be the same as the Safari. Maybe you need to clear your cache.
