Safari's odd behaviour with Shockwave/Flash

Was trying to browse the European site for the new Nintendo Wii console, but finding that the links did not work in Safari.
Go to http://ms.nintendo-europe.com/wii and choose UK/English as your language. This appends ?l=enGB to your URL. Then click on a link, for example "Philosophy", near the top of the page. This appends ?site=philosophy.html&l=enGB to your existing URL. That makes the whole URL http://ms.nintendo-europe.com/wii/?l=enGB?site=philosophy.html&l=enGB, which is invalid, as there are now two question marks in there.
If you visit the same site in Internet Explorer, the name-value pairs are replaced, rather than appended to, which results in a valid URL.
The code for each link is
var so = new SWFObject("w_button.swf?u=philosophy.html&t=Philosophy&l=enGB", "button1", "82", "40", "7", "#ffffff");
so.write("button1");
but unfortunately, that's where my knowledge of Shockwave or Flash ends I'm afraid.
Is this a coding issue or a browser issue?

Hi m0thr4
i see what you mean
I'd guess it's a combination of coding/browser - fwiw, Camino handles the pages perfectly well on my G5/10.4.7
It's worth contacting the site owners & letting them know about this..... also consider Safari-Report Bugs to Apple from the Safari menu.

  • Podcast exhibiting odd behaviour with bluetooth

    Ever since updating to iOS6 / iPhone 5 i've been experiencing odd behaviour with music playback. Now that the Podcasts app is a requirement, i'm not sure if this is directly related to the Podcasts app or if it's an iOS 6 quirk.
    My iPhone connects to my car's stereo head unit via bluetooth. When i start my car it automatically connects and music, phone calls, etc, are all forwarded to my car's speakers. When i would switch my car off, music would stop automatically and i'd get out of my car and go about my day.
    Everything worked absolutely perfectly in iOS 5 with the 4S.
    The issue now with iOS6/iP5 is that when i switch off my car and use Siri or make a phone call, after i stop using Siri or if i end my call, the Podcasts app automatically resumes playback of what ever i was listening to when i switched my car off... Essentially it blasts music at me through the internal iPhone speaker for absolutely no reason.
    Here is a step by step,
    1. Start car
    2. Play music
    3. Turn off car
    4. Music automatically stops
    5. (while at the office, away from my car) Use siri or make a phone call
    6. When i end the call or stop using Siri, music automatically resumes via the iPhone internal speaker
    Is there any way to fix this?? It's getting quite annoying to have my iPhone blast me with music in fairly inappropriate situations.

    Disregard, there is a thread about it here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4346946?tstart=0
    Can't see any way of deleting my thread unfortunately.

  • FREEZING WITH SHOCKWAVE FLASH 11.9.900.117

    On 10/12/13, downloaded this update from Adobe.
    Almost immediately, webpages on various sites began freezing and I receive
    the message depicted below.
    Using Mozilla Firefox, Windows 7 Home.
    This issue occurs on numerous websites (in the midst of Google search, fb, etc.).
    It even occurred while on adobe.com site when attempting to search for others
    experiencing this same problem.
    Since this problem did NOT begin occurring until after downloading this update,
    I am relatively certain that this is NOT a Firefox problem but a bug in this version
    of Shockwave Flash.
    Any input with regard to an immediate remedy is appreciated.

    Download the Flash Player Uninstaller
    Then download the Flash Player Plug-in (for all other browsers)
    Lastly, download the Shockwave FULL Installer
    Save all of these file to your Downloads folder by rhgith clikcing ans choosing "Save Link as"- DO NOT RUN anything yet.
    Open and run the Flash Player Uninstaller.
    Open your Control Panel and uninstall Shockwave (if it's there to uninstall)
    Reboot your system.
    BEFORE you open anything else, locate and run the Shockwave FULL Installer.
    Then run the Flash Player installer to replace the plugin in Firefox.
    That should remedy the "unresponsive pluign" messages.

  • Problem with "Shockwave Flash is busy or not responding" message

    Hello,
    I am getting the "Shockwave Flash is busy or not responding" message, visiting the site on which I am working on for one client. Site is http://www.puntacanajustsafari.com/
    I have installed one flash widget for weathercast and imediatelly after installing I have got the message "Shockwave Flash is busy or not responding"  - browser, buttons, scrolling - everything simply freeze! Few minutes just standing by, not responsive, and then eventually page start to scroll normally. Since then I changed widget position, made it to show on tour page only ( http://www.puntacanajustsafari.com/punta-cana-jeep-tour/ ) but after facing the same problems with flash thing I have removed it completely and installed one other widget and made separate page for weather information, that seems to work nicely (for now).
    Problem is that I am still geting "frozen" page when visiting home page and tour page, even after clearing the page cashe and removing widget. This is happening on both browsers that I use (firefo and IE) so I am partially sure that is not a browser problem. This is first time happening to me, if somebody can figure out what to do, I would appreciate it.

    Clear your browser's cache and cookies. I'm not seeing any issues in Firefox,  Chrome or IE

  • Win 7 does not associate swf with Shockwave Flash Captivate 7

    I created a test file and when I went to publish it in Win 7, there was no application for the swf file.  I tried to find Shockwave Flash or Macromedia and I could not find anything to associate it with.  I looked on the Internet and someone suggested a stand alone Flash Player. I can associate the swf file with that but then it won't play through Captivate like it should.  I tested it on another Win 7 machine and it too could not find the application.  Captivate 5 with XP was so easy. It just found it and I had no problems.  What is this about?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks

    When you publish your project as a SWF, a HTML file is also published. You can open this HTML just like any other web page in IE, FireFox or Chrome, You don't need a standalone Flash Player for that.
    "I can associate the swf file with that but then it won't play through Captivate like it should. " -- You can insert SWF files on a slide in Captivate. AFAIK, Captivate could never be used as a "player" for SWFs.

  • Odd Behaviour with DVDs on IMac G5 20inch 1.8 GHz

    Suddenly the Superdrive DVD/CD (MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-825, Firmware DBN7) shows odd behaviour.
    It still reads CDs. But when a DVD is introduced, it will start "DVD Player" automatically, but then there is no hint of the disk. Neither does it show on the desktop, nore would it play. DVD Player would not eject it, but the eject button on the keyboard would.
    The DVD is ok, as it would play on my Powerbook G4 without problems.
    Any idea what might be causing this? - I had just performed the "Pro update"! Thanks for your help!
    iMac G5 20inch 1.8 GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Hve you checked to see whether a different DVD will play, Bernd?
    You might want to try deleting com.apple.DVDPlayer.plist from your Home/Library/Preferences folder, restarting and then seeing if it works.
    Cheers

  • Safari 6 wont work with adobe flash player

    I recently downloaded Safari 6 and my adobe flash wont work. It keeps saying I dont have the plug in, even though I have downloaded it several times.

    If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
    1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, triple-click the line below to select it:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password. If you get the same error after doing that, re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
    Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
    Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    2. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
    3. Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
    4. In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

  • My Mac Pro (early 2008) has odd behaviour with 8800gt

    Hello Apple community,
    First of all, thank you for your support and sorry if I can't explain the situation correctly. I will be concrete.
    I bought a Mac Pro 3,1 (early 2008) 2 weeks after its launch with Nvidia Geforce 8800gt 512mb. It works awesome.
    Each five-six months I open it and remove all the dust I can carefully. I am used to do it and I do not touch anything fragile.
    The problem is that the screen flashes and then gets frozen everytime the Mac has to use hardware for graphics. When this happens, there are many dots and strypes moving arround with green and pink spots.
    I made both picture and video: http://www.cl.ly/7dGD(pic)    - http://www.cl.ly/7d4U(video)
    This happens in every place the Mac uses the graphic card (both browsers showing a youtube video, vimeo, etc... and time machine, which uses graphics for the background), everything get frozen but the sound doesn't until 1 or 2 minutes. When this happens, the only solution is to force shut down (press and holding the power button 5 secs).
    The only hope I had was formatting. I thought I had something in my Mac user which could make this happen. So I formatted the Mac Pro last night. A clean install. Everything updated... but the error persists.
    So...
    - I thought the problem was Flash, but it doesn't. The solution I have for playing videos in browser is disabling the hardware option for Flash.
    - I also thought the problem was the capture card but it doesn't because I tried everything without the card installed.
    - I have formatted and the problem persists.
    Something is wrong but I don't know what. I am now in the Mac and everythin works great. But the risk exists the moment I am playing a video, editing a video, in Time Machine, playing a game, and so on...
    When this happens and the Mac restarts, it shows this info:
    Interval Since Last Panic Report: 411819 sec

    I don't know how to solve this problem...
    Thank you for your help

    Try this:
    clone your system and repair it with Disk Warrior instead
    Or try a clean test system install on another drive
    A must: SmcFanControl 2.2 - a mere 400 rpm extra to keep air cooling up
    Try to run w/o externals. MyBook included.
    Is that a 7200.11 1TB? they had a lot of issues.
    Run AHT off your OEM DVD.
    2008 had to have EFI and SMC updates to deal with freezes on wake from sleep, and like all models, high inrush current.  Hopefully you have a UPS and is 1500VA unit.
    When you do hard restart from power button, you almost certainly add more directory errors and to files requiring immediate attention to repair and rebuild the directory; and to scan and repair and delete cache and temp files and folders. A must. Invest in bootable backups SuperDuper along with Disk Warrior (or TechTool Pro 6, maybe Drive Genius 3 but I'd rate that #3).
    TimeMachine has its own bad habits, especially with Green drives and some externals.
    Try to rule out everything and then add back one at a time.
    And it may just be time to replace the 8800, very common, a couple threads this week, and it is 3 yrs old.  Might want ATI 5870 or 5770.

  • Odd behaviour with parameter id on selection screen

    Try this code
    PARAMETERS: p_fpath1 TYPE string LOWER CASE MEMORY ID rofile,
                p_fpath2 TYPE string LOWER CASE.
    AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_fpath1.
      PERFORM get_filepath CHANGING p_fpath1.
    AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_fpath2.
      PERFORM get_filepath CHANGING p_fpath2.
    *---------Forms
    FORM get_filepath CHANGING x_filepath TYPE string.
      DATA: l_filepath TYPE string.
      cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_browse( CHANGING selected_folder = l_filepath ).
    * If no filepath selected, leave the filepath unchanged
      IF l_filepath IS NOT INITIAL.
        x_filepath = l_filepath.
      ENDIF.
    ENDFORM.
    Run the program, and use F4 to choose a file path for p_fpath1 and another for p_fpath2.
    Hit execute
    Leave the program.
    Run the program again.
    Use F4 to choose the filepaths for the two parameters.
    For me, it's fine for p_fpath2, but for p_fpath1, I get no directory selector.  In fact, to get it working again, I have to log off and log back on.
    I'd like to know if anyone else gets the same problem, and also if anyone knows how to fix it!
    thanks

    The issue was with the STRING VARIABLE in parameters decelaration.I just changed it to RLGRAP-FILENAME it worked.
    Try these codes.
    PARAMETERS: p_fpath1 TYPE rlgrap-filename LOWER CASE MEMORY ID rofile,
                p_fpath2 TYPE rlgrap-filename LOWER CASE.
    AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_fpath1.
      PERFORM get_filepath CHANGING p_fpath1.
    AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_fpath2.
      PERFORM get_filepath CHANGING p_fpath2.
    START-OF-SELECTION.
      WRITE : p_fpath1,p_fpath2.
    *---------Forms
    FORM get_filepath CHANGING x_filepath TYPE rlgrap-filename.
    *CALL METHOD cl_gui_cfw=>flush.
      DATA: l_filepath TYPE string.
      CLEAR :l_filepath,x_filepath.
      cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_browse( CHANGING selected_folder = l_filepath ).
    * If no filepath selected, leave the filepath unchanged
      IF l_filepath IS NOT INITIAL.
        x_filepath = l_filepath.
      ENDIF.
    ENDFORM.                    "get_filepath
    LAST ENTERED VALUE WILL ALSO DISPLAY
    These codes work.

  • Why odd behaviour with these sites?

    Hi. I'm on Tiger 10.4.9 and Safari 2.0.4 (419.3). I've noticed that I get a blank screen when trying to view the "View all ads" link in the apple.com "Get a Mac" section. The tab reads "ads.gif 1x1 pixels" and the page is blank. Anyone know what's going on?
    Also, when trying to view the macworld.com webpage, it has a lot of blank space before the text begins. When viewing this site via IE on a PC it displays fine. Surely a mac site hasnt been optimised for IE and not Safari?!
    Anyone know why my Safari is acting like this? Thanks!

    Have you tried clearing the Safari cache and Java
    Plugin Settings caches?
    Looks like that was the problem! Thanks!

  • Odd behaviour with large(ish) wireless file transfers

    Hi I'm really pleased with my playbook - brilliant device !
    I do however have one general dislike ; that is for micro/mini physical connectors. They are a fact of life on many devices now so ......
    Anyway. In order to minimise my use of the micro usb connector I have been copying files to it across my wlan but have experienced some difficulty.
    Most recently (last night) I was copying a 230 Mb video to my playbook. At various times throughout the transfer, my computer's progress bar would pause for a goodly number of seconds then jump by about a 14 Mb increment (something buffering somewhere maybe ?) This went on until around the 210/220 Mb when my computer gave up and reported that the "connection to the device was interrupted, ignore cancel"
    I tried this with a number of files and got the same (or similar)  result each time.
    I realise this could be down to many things but just wanted to know if anyone else had noticed something like this happening.
    For info:
    Playbook 2.1.0.1088
    Macbook Pro mountain Lion
    Belkin F57D Router.
    Kind Regards

    Hi there,
    thanks for trying that. I guess I need to hunt a little more.

    I have transferred lots of files a LOT bigger than 230Mb to the PB. Wi-Fi file transfers (and even microUSB transfers in fact) are sloooooooow by nature. I would suspect your connection to the router in your instance. I would investigate your Wi-Fi settings and adjust as required. I have had experience with this modifying something called channel width (I have posts about it here in the forums). Anyhow, that one little setting made a heck of a difference for me with throughput and general Wi-Fi stability with the PB on my network. 

  • Why this odd behaviour with radio?

    If I select 'Martini in the Morning' internet radio I get an error message. It just won't work. If I select a station one or two above in the list, tune in, then jump forward I get Martini just fine. Why? Can I fix it?
