WMode Transparent not displaying in Windows/Firefox

Hello, I'm using Wordpress and a Wordpress flash plugin
called Showtime Slideshow as the site's gallery. It works
perfectly in the standard wmode=window setting in
Firefox/Windows, but I have a dropdown menu that
overlaps with the Flash. I was able to figure out the wmode
needs to be opaque or transparent, but when I use those
settings, nothing is displayed at all. It works fine in
Windows/IE, Mac/IE and Mac/Firefox, so there is something
in the code that Windows/Firefox doesn't like in this code
(another Flash object from YouTube with wmode=transparent
displays correctly).
Here is the code that the plugin generates:
<!-- generated by showtime WP plugin -->
<script type='text/javascript'>
var flashvars = {
xml                : 'http://www.youtag.lu/youtagdesign/wp-content/plugins/showtime-slideshow/showtime/getxml.php?attr=id^433*source^medium*sourcehd^large*',
width                : '674',
height                : '448',

var params = {};
params.allowFullScreen = 'true';
params.bgcolor = '#EDEAE6';         
params.quality = 'autohigh';         
params.wmode = 'transparent';
//params.base = 'dirname(__FILE__)';
//params.allowScriptAccess = 'local';
var attributes = {};
attributes.styleclass = 'showtime';
swfobject.embedSWF ('http://www.youtag.lu/youtagdesign/wp-content/plugins/showtime-slideshow/showtime/st15.swf', 'st_0', '674', '448', '10.0.0', 'http://www.youtag.lu/youtagdesign/wp-content/plugins/showtime-slideshow/showtime/swfobject/expressInstall.swf', flashvars, params, attributes);
</script>
[taken from the Showtime Slideshow demo page]
Based on that code, can anyone see anything that
would cause the whole slideshow to not display at all?    

Bump. Could anyone take a look at the code?

  • Chinese characters are not displayed in the Firefox bookmarks

    Chinese characters are not displayed in the Firefox bookmarks. The name looks like e.g. "??????? ???? cn.nytimes.com"
    Chinese character of the site name is displayed ok in the head of the browser window and there is no problem reading chinese web content. I use Firefox Portable 11 /English from portableapps.com in Windows XP.
    I googled and got some tips:
    1) Set your browser to recognise Chinese language internet sites.
    Windows users: Under "Tools - Options" on your browser's menu-bar add Chinese to the languages list.
    - I did this.
    2) Set your browser's "Character Set" or "Encoding" to UTF-8 (sometimes also called Universal Alphabet or Unicode).
    Encoding settings can be changed under the "View" option in your browser's menu-bar.
    - It was already set to UTF-8.
    3) Windows users: If Chinese text still does not display correctly, East Asian language support may need to be enabled.
    - This has been done when I installed Windows.
    I still don't get any Chinese fonts in the bookmark names. I can edit the bookmark name with chinese characters and then save the bookmark, it works fine. But why does not Firefox recognize the characters when saving bookmarks? Help is appreciated.

    No I didn't change anything deep beneath the hood. My problem didn't apply to the URL, but to the name of the link or bookmark header or whatever you would like to call it. (When hitting Ctrl + D there is a Name field). I only got ???????? instead of chinese characters in the name. Also for e.g. www.cntv.cn ...but maybe all China is not in the whitelist either. ;-) But anyway, this was not the real problem for me.
    Apparently I was wrong as after a reboot of the computer it worked. The solution seemed to be to add Chinese to the language list. I don't know why it was not enough to restart Firefox?
    Now I only have problems to show chinese characters in the name field of my external link manager... But I guess it is not an issue for Mozilla.

  • TDF not displaying properly in Firefox 4

    Hi, just an FYI to the TDF team...the web version is not displaying properly in Firefox 4.0.1. The main browser window (for lack of a better description) is slightly off-set maybe 10 - 15 pixels down and to the right. Because of this it covers up some of the TDF navigation tabs.

    In case anyone else runs into this issue, I was able to resolve it by rebuilding those portions of the animation.

  • New user of Firefox. Webpage I made not displaying correctly in Firefox but OK in Win IE. Why is this?

    Im new to Firefox. Just found out the website Im maintaining does not display correctly with Firefox but OK with Win IE. Why is this?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    I'm going to make a prediction here:
    The webpage will contain a lot of code written specifically to the non-standards compliant way IE works, and will also "not display correctly" in the following standards compliant browsers:
    Chrome
    Safari
    Opera
    and the solution will be to code the pages according to the standards meant to be followed so it displays correctly in all non-IE browsers, '''then''' see how it displays in IE.

  • Certain special characters do not display correctly in Firefox ( font COLOR="#1f1a17" FACE="Symbol" SIZE="3" ¬ /font ). Is there a fix?

    Certain special characters which display correctly in Explorer do not display correctly in Firefox. Example: <font COLOR="#1f1a17" FACE="Symbol" SIZE="3">¬</font>
    Is there a fix?

    The symbol font usually doesn't work in Firefox, a website needs to use an Unicode replacement or an HTML entity to specify such a character.

  • Animation not displaying properly in Firefox

    My animation not displaying properly in Firefox. I have searched this forum and others but am only able to find outdated solutions (such as updating to the latest release of Animate). I am on the most current versions of Animate and Firefox and still having problems. Does anyone know of a solution to this, or can direct me to a discussion that already covers it?
    An interesting thing to note is that only the center tree is acting differently, though the commands for each seem to be the same. Also the small mountains are fine, but not Mt Rainier.

  • Hi my web hosting company irunsolutions.co.uk have informed me that my website does not display properly in firefox when run on a windows 7 32 bit platform.

    website is www.empireembroidery.co.uk

    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • CSS not displaying properly in Firefox

    My new CSS layout looks beautiful in IE7 (weird), however, it
    is not rendering properly in Firefox. I always do research before
    posting here, but I'm completely helpless now. I'm very new to CSS,
    this is my first page I've layed on using this language. Pretty
    much none of the top margins are working, and my faux column image
    isn't displaying. I'll attach the HTML and the CSS and see if
    someone can point out what is wrong with Firefox.

    I'm seeing problems in FF3, Safari 3.1, and IE6. Flash code
    and missing alt
    tags on images won't hurt you, but some of the other
    validation errors could
    be effecting your layout.
    http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.colonybeachresort.com%2FCSS_T esting%2F
    In addition, you've got problems with those png images and
    alpha-transparency. They do not render well in IE6 without
    some sort of png
    fix JavaScript. Given that many people still use IE6, you
    might want to
    switch to jpgs for backgrounds.

  • Flash wmode="transparent" not working in IE

    For the life of me, I can't figure out how to make my swf transparent in IE. I've tested in Firefox, Opera, Safari, and Chrome on Windows 7 and it works fine, but in IE it is showing a black opaque background. I've seen the same issue on Safari on the Mac.
    I now have 3 different variations of the code on the page, all 3 variations being transparent in Firefox, Opera, Safari, and Chrome on Windows 7, and all 3 variations NOT being transparent in Internet Explorer.
    For 'attempt 2', I'm using swfobject which in theory should generate the correct code.

  • Websites with flash photo galleries do not display photos in firefox.

    I manage several websites that use the 'expose' photo gallery. Expose uses flash to display photos in the photo galleries. When you go to one of these web sites and click on the photo gallery link, the photos are not displayed, the page shows the gallery buttons but no photos. Using Internet Explorer or Chrome browsers, the photo galleries work fine. Here are 3 web sites to view;
    www.wishardgallery.com - click on photo gallery
    www.applemanart.com - click on art gallery
    www.jewelimages.com - click on any of the gallery links on the left menu
    Do the same with IE or Chrome to see the photos displayed.

    Some galleries are displayed via JavaScript, so if they aren't working the make sure that you aren't blocking JavaScript.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Wordpress theme not displaying properly in Firefox, but shows well in Safari and Chrome

    Hi!
    I have a Wordpress site that i'm using a custom theme with. Starting yesterday, my website's layout is shifted around and very distorted when viewing in Firefox, but it's perfectly fine in Chrome and Safari.
    I tried deactivating the plugins, didn't help. I checked the site in multiple computers, same issue on all of them.
    When checking on Windows PC, only Chrome displays the site properly, both firefox and IE are giving the "Exploit Black Hole" warning. I checked the site with URLVoid and VirusTotal, it came up clean.
    Here's the link: http://selektorstyle.com
    At this moment, i have no idea what to do, so any help is much appreciated!
    Thank you.

    Can you attach a screenshot?
    *http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
    Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
    If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause issues.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
    If you are not on Windows then instead of "Tools > Options" use:
    *Linux: "Edit > Preferences"
    *Mac: "Firefox > Preferences"
    *Windows: "Firefox > Options" or "Tools > Options"
    <i>Press F10 if the menu bar is hidden on Windows and Linux</i>
    Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer(s).<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />

    However in the last several minutes as i was writing a different answer, your content changed. Prior to current swf, there was however a blue box appearing in both browsers, and I noticed a discrepancy in your swf width and height attributes you posted.
    Is there some specific reason you are using AC_FL_runcontent.js? Should not be needed for a simple slideshow.
