What's With Flash and IE7 ?

I have noticed a number of posting of Flash and IE7 troubles,
but they are not close enough or succinctly worded enough to suit
me to glom onto their post with my problem, and I noticed that the
ones who have a problem similar to mine are not being answered. So,
I take it that there is definitely a problem with Flash and IE7,
but no one knows the answer and Microsoft has not risen to the
problem of dealing with a problem that affects hundreds of
thousands of users. I have posted the following on a Microsoft
forum, but have received no reponses there as of yet. Hopefully the
Flash gurus here will be able to rise to the occasion more quickly
than their Microsoft IE counterparts.
If you look at the home page for
http://www.townofstarprairie.com/
using FireFox or IE 6 (with security settings lowered), you'll
notice a scrolling flash text box at the top, and an exact
duplicate of that text box at the very bottom of the page.
If you use IE 7, the one on top does not show but the one on
the bottom of the page does. These two Flash boxes are identical in
every way.
I have toyed with my IE 7 settings to the point where IE was
screaming at me that the world was going to come to an end due to
my low security settings, and still the one on top does not show.
What ever could be the problem with this?
Thank you for any help you can provide!

Nickels55, you are correct....mostly.
One of my acquaintances busted into the weather.com code and
sent me the source. After much trial and error, I found that by
removing the STYLE block completely, I no longer had a problem. I
even tried removing the styles between the STYLE block, but that
didn't work. I had to remove the STYLE tags, too. I tried linking
out to a style page to no avail , btw.
For a while, you can see a bust of this problem at
http://www.townofstarprairie.elitecyberdesign.com/index.cfm?optionid=5877
What's really weird is that this problem only affects the
Flash code ABOVE the Weather.com widget (you would think it would
affect below, but such is not the case), and only in IE 7.
Very strange.

  • Problem streaming MP3 with flash and IE7

    Ok, I have a big problem here. Only occurs with Internet
    Explorer 7 and possibly 6 too. Happens only on some systems, one of
    mine do that, I have 3 systems.
    I have a website that opens a window that streams a webradio
    from another website. The websites are not on the same server. When
    I first open IE, and click on the radio link that contains de flash
    file that loads the MP3 file to stream, it works. I close down the
    window, re-open the link, and it keeps loading (the little circle
    keeps rotating for ages). I have latest version (9.0.47.0) of flash
    player installed, like my other systems. If I close all instances
    of explorer and open the radio link again, it works ! But at the
    moment I close down the new window (there's another explorer opened
    at that moment), and open it again, it won't work.
    Seems to be either explorer OR flash to be faulty, I tried 4
    different flash player, they all do the same thing, so it's not the
    flash player (SWF file) that loads the MP3. Is there a solution? Is
    it a known problem??

  • I have tearing with flash and Youtube videos.

    First, my specs.
    Windows XP
    Quad Core
    Nvidia 9600gt DDR3
    2GB RAM
    Browsers: Firefox 3.6.12 and IE7
    I have the newest Nvidia Drivers and Adobe Flash 10.1
    Well the problem is that I have tearing with flash and videos in Windowed Mode, if I turn the full screen option there is no sign of tearing BUT only if I have hardware acceleration turn on.
    So the problem is, why I have tearing in windowed mode?

    Same here. I am not getting 'what tearing' is all about. Can u please explain?

    I have confirmed his complaint. stopAllSounds works correctly
    across multiple swfs on an html page using Flash player 8 but not
    with Flash Player 9.
    Incidentally, there is another big "improvement" (they say)
    that prevents you from uninstalling the Flash 9 player without
    running
    their uninstaller exe. Unfortunately, their uninstaller
    uninstalls all flash player versions (not just version 9) from ALL
    browsers
    so if just want to remove player 9 from IE you are forced to
    also uninstall it from FireFox etc as well. Great, huh?

    Hello
    I am pretty sure they know about this issue and software companies must not hear what the people say. For me it is logic that they watch what happen on the software market and try to adapt own products as soon as possible.
    This issue with IE8 is known and soon or later the updated version will be offered on download page but the question is: when?
    I cannot understand why they wait so long time. OK, to fix some issue and testing procedure can take a days but IE8 is not on the market from yesterday.
    Lets see how long it will be necessary for AuthenTec to fix this issue.

  • Using databases with Flash and PHP

    Hi, everyone!
    I`m a PHP newbie. I just learned PHP so that I can use
    databases with Flash.
    I`ve got a .php script that contains html that loads up my
    .swf file. The .swf file is the core of my site. What I want to
    know is if I can call some PHP functions (that I have wrote in the
    .php script) from within the .swf file... This functions would
    perform the reading and updating of my database.
    The only way I know of to modify a database from Flash is
    using the POST and GET methods. But that opens up a new browser
    window in which the PHP script is called. And that only handles
    writing in the database. So, what if I just want to read from the
    database some values and insert them into a TextField in Flash? How
    do I do that?
    Thanks! Ardy

    Hello Korawees,
    I was researching the issue you are describing and had a recommendation. The device is very simple, so the software troubleshooting for it is pretty limitted so I think you shoud restore the iPod shuffle and re sync the content. That way, if it is a software issue, this will fix it. Here is the article named Restoring iPod shuffle to factory settings found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1481.
    Before Starting
    It is important to understand the difference between "update" and "restore." Update does not affect your settings or songs, it simply installs updated software that controls iPod shuffle. Restore erases the disk and restores iPod shuffle to its original factory condition with updated software. If you only need to update iPod shuffle, this should be done on the computer where music is normally synced. Updating on another computer will result in all songs being removed from iPod shuffle.
    Warning: Because Restore erases all songs and files on iPod shuffle, make sure to back up any files you've saved on iPod shuffle. Your songs, podcasts, and audiobooks can be synced back to your iPod shuffle if the items are part of your iTunes library.
    How to restore iPod shuffle
    Ensure that you have an active Internet connection as new versions of iTunes and iPod Software may need to be downloaded to your computer.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes if you do not already have it installed.
    Open iTunes, and then connect iPod shuffle to your computer.
    After a few moments, iPod shuffle will appear in the Devices section on the left side of the Tunes window.
    Select iPod shuffle under Devices and you will see information about it appear in the main iTunes window under the Summary tab/button for iPod shuffle (3rd and 4th generation) or the Settings tab/button for iPod shuffle (1st or 2nd generation).
    The Version section tells you whether iPod shuffle is up to date or needs a newer version of the software.
    Click the Restore button. You will be presented with one or more restore options that may prompt iTunes to automatically download the latest iPod Software. The 4-possible restore options are:
    Restore Option 1: Restore - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod.
    Restore Option 2: Use Same Version - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod even though a newer version is available.
    Restore Option 3: Use Newest Version - Restores with the latest iPod Software currently on your computer.
    Restore Option 4: Restore and Update - Restores after downloading the latest iPod Software on your computer.
    If you are using a Mac, a message will appear prompting you to enter an administrator’s name and password.
    A progress indicator will appear on the computer screen indicating that the restore process has started. Do not disconnect iPod shuffle during the restore process.
    After the restore process is complete, the iPod shuffle's status light will flash orange continuously. The iPod Setup Assistant window will appear asking you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences as you did when you connected your iPod shuffle for the first time.
    When you come to step 7, I recommend Restore Option 4.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • What's with apple and updates?

    What's with Apple and the latest updates?  They are really messed up!  with ios 8.02 and 8.10 updating via itunes, (itunes 12.0.1.26) has screwed my iphone.  The update fails.  The restore won't go since it wants a password, which on a defaulted iphone, *there is none*.  Now I'm stuck with out being able to restore my iphone and it's at factory default for mail and such.  Screwed!  What's the point of backing up your iphone if you can't restore it?  Apple?  ****!

    Because that is the most recent version of Opera that the developers have issued to the Mac App Store.

  • Captivate with Flash and Audio Problem

    hi there,
    I am having lot of flash files and all the audios inside the
    flashfiles are "Event" Sync and not default "Streaming" which
    brings out more problem like slow in clicking buttons and overall
    project speed. but when i change it to Event it works fine at the
    same time i cannot do any audio synching and other audio relatted
    ewordl....
    Please hlp me/...

    I am having a similar problem where flash audio loops plays again on the slide after the one with the flash swf.  Like it's replaying the sound twice, looping is not turned on... I've had multiple problems with flash and captivate like the new CS4 3d transitions just make it go balistic.

  • Help!(confused face) I'm new with flash and don't know why the timers don't work like i would expect

    I'm new with flash and don't know why the timers don't work like i would expect.  In VB.NET timers are how you move stuff, but it doesn't look like they are ideal for moving stuff in flash at all (really slow).  I'm making a game in which you throw a ball around the screen. i am using a timer to get the ball to move. this doesn't work well for 2 reasons; 1: the ball jumps alot, and 2: the timer should eventually run out of time.  If anyone can help, i'd be thrilled cus this is my first post here, so yeah

    Timing for movement would be more often dealt with using something that operates at the frame rate of the file.  The ENTER_FRAME event is usually selected for this purpose.
    stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, moveBall);
    function moveBall(evt:Event):void {
         // your positioning code
    You could use a Timer to control when to stop the listener from being active.

  • Issues with flash and other adobe products.

    Ok, so i've been using flash player for quite a number of years now aswell as other products like acrobat reader when i used windows, over the years flash player has developed into a totally inneffecient and almost unusable product. on top of the security issues of past with flash player and especially acrobat reader, with remote code execution vulnerabilities, i have, as have thousands of others noticed a very large decrease in performance with flash.
    i should note that a year or two ago, i could play HD flash content no problem, both 720 and 1080 resolutions, full screen without any issue. i would expect it to take up a decent portion of cpu cycles, which it did, i use to be able to run flash content at 720 with about 30 - 50% cpu usage. now it seems with flash 10 my AMD Athlon 4000+ struggles to play even 720 videos. My cpu is by no means a top performer, it is however capable of handling somewhere in the region of a billion instructions per second. for video content to require that amount of data to be handled is rediculous.
    HD content played back on my local machine using a different codec, my cpu barely even uses 5 - 10% cpu time, not only that, these videos have roughly about the same compression rates as flash videos. i just don't understand how flash can require so much resources without taking into account innefficient and bloated code.
    today i tried to access a web page that required flash content to display images, it was not a video, but an image database, going from one page to the next took somewhere in the region of 20 - 30 seconds, while my cpu maxed out at 100% and firefox stopped responding, which is totally unnacceptable.
    it wouldn't normally be a problem if there were good alternatives, but there aren't any, im stuck with this piece of crap software if i want to view any flash content. the only real alternative is to upgrade, which i am not prepared to do if the next version of flash is just going to push those boundries even further for features i don't need.
    my proposal is to:
    1. rewrite the code with effeciency rather than new features in mind, if that means getting able programmers in, then so be it.
    2. make flash modulous, where the basic package provides capabilties to play flash content and separate plugins to provide for all the individual unnecessary features that are not required for basic flash content. surely you can build a package that provides all those plugins for regular users and a basic package + optional plugins for those who know what they want or need.
    it really makes no sense why such a large corporation with all this experience to provide a product that quite simply.. sucks, well it does actually, either your programmers are incapable of creating a stable, efficient product or you are purposly trying to push hardware upgrades onto people. lets not forget that flash content is huge business on the web, adobe flash player has a strangle hold on that market, it would be naive to think that hardware vendors have not approached adobe with specifications to further make the money wheel go round.
    sort it out, because i for one, am in the process of completely removing my dependancy on adobe flash, if the right product comes along, others will do to, in droves. it's a bubble that is going to burst and there is no way back when you have millions of lines of quite frankly, amateurish code.

    Eric,
    The GTX 650 would be priced slightly higher than the GT 640 - and then, the OP would have to "settle" for only 1GB of graphics RAM instead of 2GB. The GTX 650 is currently not available with 2GB of RAM.
    Both the GT 640 and the GTX 650 are based on the same GPU - the GK107, with 384 CUDA cores. The two major differences are that the GK107 on the GTX 650 is clocked higher than the one on the GT 640, and that the GTX 650 has almost triple the memory bandwidth of the GT 640 (80 GB/s versus 28.8 GB/s).
