Web Browser Flash Elements

Maybe I'm asking way too much of poor old OS 9. But if I could fix this issue, OS 9 would be SO much more useful for me...
There are some websites that simply cause Mozilla to crash and burn. (Including Mozilla 1.3.1, WaMCom Mozilla 1.3.1, and Netscape 7.02. Given that all three of these browsers seem to share the same basic binaries, they all seem to sorta crash on some websites no matter what I do.)
An example is usaa.com. One I log in and try browsing through the site, Mozilla/Netscape will show the "watch" cursor, and the system will be unresponsive until I force-quit and reboot the computer.
My first course of action was to troubleshoot Java. I used to have Mac Runtime for Java version 2.2.5, but decided to update it to version 2.2.6 -- no change.
I uninstalled and reinstalled Shockwave Flash NP-PPC version 7.0 r73 -- no change.
I have fudged around with the preferences in Mozilla and Netscape, even dumped the preference file and started from scratch -- no change.
I took an alternate approach and tried using iCab version 3.0.5. iCab works OK, but anytime there is a flash element, the web page just says "loading" with the spinning gear on that particular flash element, and never really loads anything. iCab will load YouTube videos fine, but if I log in to usaa.com, it says "loading" infinitely with that spinning gear. Also, if I try using facebook.com, and I "ignore" or "accept" various invitations, it will also hang on "loading" that web page element forever and ever....
Another issue is that Mozilla and iCab both let me log in to me.com (holy cow, yes it did.) But, I am having the same issue as above, in that it usually causes Mozilla/Netscape to crash, and/or it causes iCab to hang on "loading" with that darn spinning gear in the web page.
So I was wondering if anyone here happens to use these websites on a regular basis with OS 9, and if so, what the best ways are to navigate through them? Am I missing something?
I can boot to Tiger just fine, but I would love to get OS 9 to do the job, too.

I do most of my internet tasks (forums, info surfing, weather, financial, etc.) using Mozilla 1.3.1 with OS 9.2.2. But I experience some of the same problems you have. Some sites require a Flash version higher than v7 (max for OS 9). Some sites just don't render properly. I can't access my American Express site for bill pay. I think java incompatibilities is a problem. But I still get freezes sometimes & have to force quit. I have allocated about 10X more memory to Mozilla, but still ge the freeze. Mozilla, like a lot of browsers suffers from memory creep when you've on-line for a long time. I think this large memory reqmt also causes the freeze.
For example, check the amount of memory (click on About this Computer under the Apple menu) for Mozilla when you first open it. Then after you have been on-line for a while, check it again.
Both Mozilla & Netscape are over 5 years old. Most web designers will/should check their HTML designs for proper page rendering using the current PC & Mac web browsers. But Mozilla & Netscape are too old; and Internet explorer from that era is worse.
When I'm booted in Tiger I use Firefox to view the OS 9 problem sites &pay my AE bill. Even Mac users with Safari/Panther have problems with some sites.

Clicking FLASH elements in the Web Browser

The website that I am working on has numerous FLASH elements
in it and I was wondering if there is anyway to make it so that
users browsing the site with Internet Explorer do not have to click
on the FLASH elements before navigating the site. Any help or
suggestions would be appreciated.

Go find SWFObject... PS - this has been this way for like
three years now...

Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

Yoh, what is FSCCommanr ? sorry man I am an absolute beginner in Flash. I tried the code:
/* Click to Go to Web Page
Clicking on the specified symbol instance loads the URL in a new browser window.
Instructions:
1. Replace http://www.adobe.com with the desired URL address.
Keep the quotation marks ("").
instance_name_here.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage);
function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com"), "_blank");
this is the same code I used before and it opens a pdf file in a web browser, and it doesn't open an AutoCAD file.

39L4333DG - cannot display Flash content in web browser

Hello,
When I try to access Flash sites the web browser shows 'Missing plugin' in the frame where flash player should display the content.
Am I omitting anything?
I have installed the latest firmware: 7.1.90.34.01.1.
For a 2013 TV it is annoying not to have a full featured web browser on a SMART TV.
Is there any chance to have a full web browser in the next firmware version?
Thank you.

When I had similar problems the response from Toshiba was that the browser is only intended for limited use. My problem was not being able to access any site which required a password. Not rocket science you would think!

Download adobe flash player to iPad 4 using puffin web browser

Good Day, I am new to iPad4 and want to install Adobe Flash Player; Youtube suggested Puffin Web Browser and Icannot download it.
Please help,
EM

You can not install what does not exist.
There is not now nor ever been flash for iOS.
Adobe has ceased development of flash for all mobile devices.
Third party browsers offering flash support redirect all your traffic through their server, converting the flash to something viewable on the iPad.
Skyfire has quit that business because of not enough demand.
Swifter, photon and puffin should still be available.
If you can't find it in the store, it's not available to you.

No Adobe air app will run Only Flash Web browser....

So I have re-installed Flash Builder So when I try and run a Adobe air app from the Flash Builder It brings up a prompt everytime saying - If the program is already running, close it before attempting to run. When I kill the Adobe Air debugger in the Task manager it pops up again saying If the program is already running, close it before attempting to run.
After waiting a few moments from trying again I get a message: Unable to connect to the Application to fetch profile data. Please try profiling the application again.
With Flash based - web browser apps - they run fine with no issue. How ever its only adobe air - desktop apps that run this way. This is the third time I have installed FB 4.5 on Windows 7 64 bit. last night it was all woprking fine I was able to debug my Flash Application and everything was working - it has been doing this all day.

I had the same issue suddenly today
After hours of scratching my head - and just before re-installing FlashBuilder 4.5 - I found this suggestion
I had an entry in the "mm.cfg" file:
PreloadSWF=C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\9us94hs0.default\e xtensions\[email protected]\chrome\content\flashfirebug\flashfirebug.swf
- I deleted the line and it now works
---- aaarrrrggghhh - wasted time
thanks

Flash web Browser on iPad 1,2,3rd gen. Play flash game etc

Just want to tell you guys flash web browser on iPad is in appstore for a long time now.
It is called "ISWIFTER", I just want to share it for people who does not know it. Well if you knew it already, good.
But you need a strong wifi to be able to enjoy it.
It also works on any iOs device such as iPhones, iPod touches. Enjoy it.

But it does use Flash to play it, the App creator simply packaged/embedded the Adobe Flash Player with his content.
Apple allows Adobe Flash, and Adobe Flash Content, Apple just makes the developer include the Flash Player inside the App.
So yes, it is a Flash game, just played inside an app instead of a webpage, but its the same flash player.

Open Flash Player instead of Web browser

Is it possible to set flash builder to open the built swf with flash player instead of the web browser?

if you go into your project properties, you select run/debug settings in the left pane, on the right pane select the project and then go to edit.
from there you can set the launch path,
it would be something like
http://localhost/MyProj-debug/MyProj.html for browser
or
c:\MyWorkSpace\MyProj\bin-debug\MyProj.swf to launch in flashplayer

Mozilla's SeaMonkey v2.0.14 web browser won't download Flash installers.

Hi!
I cannot seem to download any Flash installer files from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ if I am using the default user agent in Mozilla's SeaMonkey v2.0.14 web browser. If I change it to Firefox v3.6.8, then it will work. I never had this problem in the past so this looks like a bug in detecting web browsers.
Thank you in advance.

How to get the arch of flash player plugin running in my web browser,32-bit or 64bit ?

i need to get the arch with code.
it is not easy to judge the arch by the plugin version code.
HOW? ANY INTERFACE?
Thanks!

Thanks for your reply!
Even though it is available in beta on Adobe Labs,We can download 64-bit Flash Player from Adobe web site.
On 64-bit Win 7 ,I use the web browser plug-in of eclipse SWT to visit our web site ,
and i find the flash could not be displayed ,instead with a small red cross in the top left corner of web browser.
Then uninstall 32-bit flash player and install 64-bit version,the flash could be displayed normally.
So now, i am trying to find a method to detect the arch of the flash player.

Some questions about the limit of memory usage of Adobe flash player in different OS & Web Browser

Hi Adobe experts,
I'm from HP, and now using Adobe flash player making some products about massive data displaying.
For my target, I need to show more than 200 K rows in client web browser, using AdvancedDataGrid.
And that may needs more than 200M to cache the data in Web browser memory space.
So, my questions are:
Does there any memory usage limit in flash player?
Say, if we have 4G bytes of physical memory in machine, in Windows, how much can I use in flash player?
Also, if we have 4G bytes of physical memory in Linux, how much can I use in flash player?
Does it depends on the Web Browser?
Say, is there any difference between different web browsers?
If the limit exists, can we control the limit?
Say, can we define some parameters in the tag in web page to expand the limitation?
Or, can we try to control this limitation by the Flash player management which exists in the Windows Control Panel?

1. Yes. The Toolkit for CreateJS is an extra downloadable extension for Flash CS6. It will publish html and js files that will provide the animation instead of the swf that you would normally publish. The success or failure of the resulting javascript version of your animation is the result of working within the constraints of the toolkit. You are pretty much constrained to using the timeline in Flash for your animations. If you work only in Actionscript, then the output will be very disappointing.
2. Edge outputs javascript, css, and html to give you an animation. The user interface allows you to design within the constraints of what Edge can do. You can preview and adjust and tweek your animation as you work. Edge is an html5 tool. It can create html5 animation. It is not a replacement for Flash. It is something that you can use instead of Flash to embed animation in html.
The problems and benefits of each are unique. Neither is a good substitute to learning javascript, css and html5. If you don't understand the code that is created from each of these tools, you can easily end up with huge, bloated, files that perform poorly. I'm very biased toward actually knowing what is going on. If I need to edit something, I want to be able to go into the code and make a change, not add an additional chunk of code to work around what was there. I don't use the timeline at all, and so nothing that I have will publish using CreateJS. Well, it will publish, but nothing happens because there is nothing on the timeline to translate.
You can download a trial of Flash CS6 and try the Toolkit for yourself. Edge is still in free preview, you can get a copy at http://labs.adobe.com and try it to see how it works.
Also, if you're not using the Greensock Animation Platform with Flash, have a look at that. It has recently been extended to provide Javascript analogues for most of the Libraries. http://www.greensock.com/
