Web package, containing mix of html/js/swf, works off remote server but not locally

I have been using Cisco certification training materials for
months now and have had no problems. Except today.
The front index.html page, which links to swf content,
stopped redirecting me to individual chapters.
Normally, I get a front page, containing flash animation, and
a drop down list of chapters. On picking a chapter, a new,
full-screen browser window opens up. Now, I get the front page,
with its flash animation, but when I pick a chapter, nothing
happens. (The big window does not open up.)
I am using Firefox 2.0.0.13 on an intel-based macbook pro.
I have flash player MAC 9,0,124,0 installed (it was ,115 but
I installed the new version in the hopes that it would fix the
problem - to no avail).
Nothing in my machine or setup has changed.
The Error Console of firefox reports:
Error: Warning: unrecognized command line flag
-psn_0_14942209
Source File:
file:///Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/components/nsBrowserContentHandler.js
Line: 706
This seems to be a javascript problem ? But javascript does
not give errors on other pages. I think it may be a problem of
interaction between javascript and flash.
NOTHING has changed on my laptop since I last used the Cisco
training materials on 10 April. This is very baffling to me!
My hunch is that some software was updated on my machine -
probably flash software - and this has impacted the application.
I have tried the following:
- tried running the material on Safari, but had exactly the
same behaviour as above. However, I never tried running the
material on Safari, so I cannot say that it worked before.
- tried running the material on a Windows Parallels emulator
on the mac, and had exactly the same behaviour as above. Again, it
had never worked on that platform/environment.
- i installed a debug version of the flash player - there
were no odd messages in the log at all.
- i uninstalled flash and then reinstalled an older version -
same behaviour.
- i noticed that the Error console lists a lot of warning
messages to do with Javascript.
- i ran the materials off the official Cisco server, not from
a local copy as detailed above. i had no problems (a big window
opened up).
HELP!

These files are 404 not found on server.  Did you upload them?

  • What can I do when web pages with scripting display ok from a server but not locally?

    I have html and java script in the same folder path, both on a server and locally. The pages display correctly when accessed from the server, but not when accessed locally. Is there a change I can make to Firefox to solve this problem?

    An address starting with c: wouldn't be any kind of domain name. C: is the drive lettering system DOS and and later uses. By default, A: and B: are reserved for your first and second floppy disk drive. All hard drives are then named C: through Z:, if you have that many. C: is normally your startup disk.
    Anyway, their PDF file is incorrectly linked to a file directly on the C: drive of someone's computer. It's not going to work no matter what you do.

  • HTML Snippet was working on iWeb 08 but not now on iWeb 09

    Having upgraded to iWeb 09 from iWeb 08, suddenly I am unable to upload slideshows using a third party program called "SlideShowPro for Lightroom" successfully. They embed in iWeb fine but once they export they do not show up online. So, in short the slideshow shows up online but do not show up embedded onto the final iWeb page.
    Link to unembedded slideshow (which works fine)...
    http://www.jonnyback.com/lightroom_slideshows/markandemma/loader.swf
    Link to website without slideshow showing up...
    http://www.jonnyback.com/markandemma3
    Code used to embed slideshow in HTML Snippet inside of iWeb 09 (which previsouly worked in iWeb 08)
    http://www.jonnyback.com/markandemma3code
    Finally, here is a screen grab of iWeb09 showing my site and how the slideshow is fine in iWeb but isn't once it is exported...
    http://www.jonnyback.com/downloads/iWeb_Screenshot.jpg
    Here is an example of a page which I uploaded from iWeb 08, and it works fine, but only because I exported it to a folder whilst I was still using iWeb 08...
    http://www.jonnyback.com/mattandanna
    The Slideshow also shows up here fine...
    http://www.jonnyback.com/markandemma3files/widget0markup.html
    And iWeb can not get a native iWeb Photo Gallery loading online in a similar way, it just doesn't show up online either...
    http://www.jonnyback.com/markandemma2iwebphoto
    I've tried loading the page on a different server with the same issue, the Slideshow Pro gallery just does not show.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
    Jonny

    Thank you Roddy, I have done my homework but it isn't wokring yet.
    In the iWeb native Photo Gallery page, I have come up with the scenario again where it works in a subfolder...
    http://www.jonnyback.com/Site/markandemma2iwebphototest.html
    But not on the normal website domain...
    http://www.jonnyback.com/markandemma2iwebphototest.html
    As a check I did find out that the Slideshow still doesn't work with the subfolder "/Site" scenario...

    How bizarre!
    Any ideas?

  • LabVIEW 2013 Web Service works on debug server but not on application server

    I have made a LabVIEW web service, that needs to get 2 inputs from the user through html request, and one input from a running VI. For this communication I have used a notifier to transfer data between the VI and the webservice method. This works perfectly fine on the debug server, but doesn't work when I deploy the web service on the Application Web Server. As shown in the attached snippets, I use a FGV to transfer the reference of the Notifier from the VI to the web service method. This is the same method that is described in this link.
    Is this method correct? Or am I missing something?

    I can't find the right link but....
    There is something I ran across a while ago about how to enable the correct server port in you application.  The VI Server debug port gets enabled with debugging enabled but, you need to specify your services port in the <MyApp>.ini file.
    I'll sit back and watch the masters now

  • Swf works in Flash App but not online!

    Hi Guys,
    I am sitting with a situation I cannot figure out.
    In The Flash Application, my gallery is working as it is meant to. Yet, when I upload the swf to the live site, the first image, text and movie of my gallery works but it refuses to scroll to the next item in my XML.
    I have given it an absolute path to that server which works in Flash but not when it is online.
    Has someone come across this anomaly before? I don't even know where to begin debugging.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Better u check the XML image names and the image path are correct.
    becoz case sensitive in online..

  • Load swf works in Publish Preview but not when published

    Hi Folks,
    I having a problem where im trying to load two 1mb SWF movies into my Flash piece. It works fine in Publish Preview but not when I finally publish. I get this error in IE:
    SecurityError: Error #2000: No active security context.
    I have googled around and there is some talk online of a hack where by you get a timeout to overcome this. However im not so technical do I dont really know how to do this to my code in AS3. My code at the moment is below.
    Any help would be much appreciated and rewarded with Karma
    movieClip_12.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_9);
    var fl_Loader_9:Loader;
    //This variable keeps track of whether you want to load or unload the SWF
    var fl_ToLoad_9:Boolean = true;
    function fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_9(event:MouseEvent):void
    if(fl_ToLoad_9)
      fl_Loader_9 = new Loader();
      fl_Loader_9.load(new URLRequest("search.swf"));
      addChild(fl_Loader_9);
    else
      fl_Loader_9.unload();
      removeChild(fl_Loader_9);
      fl_Loader_9 = null;
    // Toggle whether you want to load or unload the SWF
    fl_ToLoad_9 = !fl_ToLoad_9;
    movieClip_14.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_10);
    var fl_Loader_10:Loader;
    //This variable keeps track of whether you want to load or unload the SWF
    var fl_ToLoad_10:Boolean = true;
    function fl_ClickToLoadUnloadSWF_10(event:MouseEvent):void
    if(fl_ToLoad_10)
      fl_Loader_10 = new Loader();
    fl_Loader_10.load(new URLRequest("refunds.swf"));
      addChild(fl_Loader_10);
    else
      fl_Loader_10.unload();
      removeChild(fl_Loader_10);
      fl_Loader_10 = null;
    // Toggle whether you want to load or unload the SWF
    fl_ToLoad_10 = !fl_ToLoad_10;

    I think this is either a problem with my site preLoader or my external .swf Loader. I was checking out the bandwith profiler and saw something weird and I wondered if anyone could explain...I've added a picture. I have a blank frame on only my actions layer to export classes to and it seems that frame 2 is "bleeding" into frame 1. Could this be my problem? Why would this happen? Thanks

  • Trouble playing .swf - works offline in browser but not online on website

    Hi there,
    I'm having trouble displaying a flash .swf file properly on my website: http://dreamriderproductions.com/fun/game-test/
    When I view the .swf file locally on Chrome, I get a text box to enter my name and I can click Go and keep playing the game. For some reason, when it's up on the website, there's no text box so I can't progress. Can you?
    Background: The game did used to connect to a database, but the upgrade of our website (and relocation of the swf) seems to have broken the database connection. People couldn't progress past the first screen presumable because the information on which city they were in couldn't be submitted to the database. We've got a version of the game with the database connection disabled and so the game should now work - it works locally for me but not on the website!
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Sion

    The code you have posted is not the same code as used in:
    <div id="gallery">
    in the link above.
    The reason that the Flash is not displaying in FF is that the portion of the code used by FF was omitted. The code currently used on the page only works in IE.
    I'm no great fan of the IE conditional statements used in the code you posted so I don't blame you for not using it. But you do need to provide something for FF.... the old, out dated method would be to add and <embed> for FF... here's the newer method..
    So either use code you posted above or better yet, get rid of that and replace the current <object> with
    <div id="gallery">
    <object id="FlashID" data="flash/201.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="958" height="242">
       <param name="movie" value="flash/201.swf">
       <param name="quality" value="high" />
         <param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
         <param name="swfversion" value="6.0.65.0"/>
    </object>
    </div>
    Give that a try. Will work in both FF and newer IE versions.

  • SWF works fine in IE but not in QT COM flash player

    Dear all,
    I am writing a QT application which needs to display a SWF file. I finished and tried to display a sample SWF file (a.swf) downloaded from internet and result was OK.
    Now I started to write my own SWF file (b.swf) using Action Script 3 and compiled with MXMLC. But b.swf could not be displayed into my QT application.
    What is strange is that both a.swf and b.swf could be displayed in IE.
    Could anybody guess what the reason would be, please?  Thanks in advance.

    Problem solved. What happened is that my image was not big enough to be seen in a small window so it appears as if the image was not loaded at all.

  • Any idea why .swf works in "simulate download" but not when Published?

    Hi,
    I have a project where I have a main project which loads external .swfs, and those external .swfs in turn load more external .swfs. In my main project, everything works perfectly when I preview using simulate download, but once the .swf is published it doesn't work properly. I'm assuming is has something to do with my main site Preloader, that's why I posted here. I'm pasting the code here and attaching the latest size report. Any ideas or help is appreciated!
    extLoader_mc._visible = false;
    var yChange = 109.2;
    var yStart = 330.2;
    myInterval = setInterval(preload,100);
    function preload() {
    var current = _root.getBytesLoaded();
    var total = _root.getBytesTotal();
    var pctLoaded = Math.round(current/total*100);
    mask_mc._y = yStart - yChange/100*pctLoaded;
    if (current >= total) {
      clearInterval(myInterval);
      _root.gotoAndStop("Main_1");

    I think this is either a problem with my site preLoader or my external .swf Loader. I was checking out the bandwith profiler and saw something weird and I wondered if anyone could explain...I've added a picture. I have a blank frame on only my actions layer to export classes to and it seems that frame 2 is "bleeding" into frame 1. Could this be my problem? Why would this happen? Thanks

  • Portal Web parts work fine on server but not Windows 7 Machines

    Hi
    I was testing the Service Manager Portal on the server and couldn't get the web parts to load.
    I followed the steps here in this blog:
    http://www.code4ward.net/main/Blog/tabid/70/EntryId/139/Service-Manager-2012-Self-Service-Portal-not-working-blank.aspx
    Where I added FQDN to the URL.
    The webparts appear now when the page is loaded directly on the server.
    But from a client Windows 7 machines the Portal is still blank with all the web parts not loading?
    Any ideas?

    The most common reason for the silverlight parts not loading is a certificate issue on the web content service.  you might also check

  • Html link to pdf works ok on mac but not on ipad. adobe reader for ipad downloaded.

    HTML link to pdf works ok on Mac but not on ipad. Adobe Reader for ipad downloaded. What's wrong?

    Hi pwillener,
    Thank for reply. The pdf’s are in a subfolder “PDF” of the folder holding the web page. The web page itself uses
    . This works in full size computer browsers but not in an iPad.
    My excursion through the search engine has produced the idea of adding #page = requesting page to the URL but I have not had time to try it perhaps without the = sign.

  • Actionscript works in IDE,projector but not SWF

    Hello, I'm atempting to create a swf that loads in a
    controller swf and accesses some of the information contained
    within the load swf. My main timeline is pretty simple.
    var preloader_mc:MovieClip =
    this.createEmptyMovieClip("preloader_mc",
    this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var labelcontainer:MovieClip =
    this.createEmptyMovieClip("container", this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var label:TextField = labelcontainer.createTextField("label",
    1, 0, 365, 150, 20);
    var TOCcontainer:MovieClip =
    this.createEmptyMovieClip("TOCcontainer",
    this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var TOClabel:TextField =
    TOCcontainer.createTextField("TOClabel", 1, 0, 300, 150, 20);
    then I have an onenter frame function that access the
    variable contained within the loaded swf.
    loadMovie("xml_controller.swf", preloader_mc);
    onEnterFrame = function () {
    vTime =
    this.preloader_mc.container.controlBar.timeView.label.value;
    this.label.text = vTime
    When I test the movie I see the time displayed and everything
    is ok. When I create a projector file I see the time display. When
    I try to run the swf, in a browser or straight from explorer All I
    see is undefined for the values.
    Anybody have any ideas why this would work in two
    environments but not the third?

    I saw this issue with a website I did. Sometimes the code
    would work no problem in the projector but fail when I published to
    the site.
    Does the xml_controller.swf refer to _root anywhere? If you
    have not locked the root and there is something it needs to access
    locally it won't be able to find the item because the _root it is
    referring to is now the load.swf movie

  • Button hyperlinks work in project preview but not in published .swf

    Captivate 6, button hyperlinks work in project preview but not in published .swf, the cursor changes the “the hand” but the hyperlink does not redirect.
    Any ideas?
    Like I said my buttons work great in preview mode after publishing, one click and the PDF opens in a new browser window. Open the project through the published .swf files and the links will not work.
    Using Captivate 6 on WIndows 7

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    Once your project published, add the .swf file in Flash Global Setting :
    1) Right Click on the content (Published .swf file) and click on Global Settings
    2) Go to Advanced Tab and Click on Trusted Location Settings  (Scrool down to see this button)
    3) Click on "Add" button and then "Add file", browse for the Captivate 6 published file and click on OK
    4) Launch the .htm file again (Location where Captivate publish your project)
    Hope this helps !!
