Wmode transparent not working on flash

Here is my website:
Website that has flash on it
Instead of a blue background the flash should be transparent. Is there something else I need done?

It renders fine in IE and Firefox (latest versions of both) XP and Vista/7 OS's.
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.
So are you good to go?

  • 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.

    Any help much appreciated.

    All 3 examples seem to render just fine in IE and FF.
    See comparison photo:
    http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/web_devel/background.jpg
    If not working for you, try clearing your cache to remove any old, non working versions.
    Test on some other machine besides yours.
    Code looks fine and seems to work.

  • Wmode transparent not working

    I'm testing two methods to avoid the flash animation from
    being on top of the menus, this:

    and this:

    fo.addParam("wmode", "opaque");
    fo.write("mainflash");
    </script>
    </div>
    But none of them seem to work on firefox 2 when using a mac,
    can anyone give me a definitive solution for this?

    For the first method you need to add the attribute
    *wmode="transparent"*
    to the embed tag.
    For the second method (for which you must be using v1.5 of
    SWFObject)
    you need to change your fo.addParam("wmode", "opaque"); from
    *opaque* to
    *transparent*.

  • Captivate 4 AS2 Text Entry Box not working with Flash Player 11

    I am having issues with text entry boxes not working at all in flash 11. I am using Captivate 4 and exporting an AS2 swf. When you get to the slide you can type but you cannot see anything nor does the button or keystroke to move on. Also there is no cursor. Any ideas?

    You said it is not working with Flash 11, so does that mean you tested with previous version and that worked?
    While publishing choose Flash player as 9 and publish that, verify if that plays in a compatible web browser.
    AS 2 is a legacy scripting, it has been said not too be supported with even Flash Player 10 --
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS2LCR/Flash_10.0/help.html?content=Part2_AS2_LangRef_1.html
    I believe if you switch back to version 9 while publish your project, it should work.
    Thanks,
    Anjaneai

  • NetStream.send not working in Flash Player 11.2 Beta with Cirrus, Please confirm if it is a bug

    Title
    NetStream.send not working in Flash Player 11.2 Beta with Cirrus, Please confirm if it is a bug or feature
    Description
    Problem Description:
    NetStream.send can not send data to peerstreams when using with cirrus. Conflict with documents.
    Sorry for tag the build as 11.0.1.3 while the bug is actually on 11.2 beta since the bug report system didn't have 11.2 beta yet.
    If you are not responsible for 11.2 beta bug fix, please help a hand to handle this bug to 11.2 team.
    This bug is "killing" to your application, so we really appreciate your help. Thanks.
    ==Publisher==
    nc.connect("rtmfp://");
    var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc, NetStream.DIRECT_CONNECTIONS);
    ns.publish("sendtest");
    ...//after connection success.
    ns.send("clientfunction", "ok"); // this line cannot reach subscribers. even if subscribers have client object correctly.
    ==Subscriber==
    nc.connect("rtmfp://");
    var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc, cirrusid);
    var client:Object = new Object();
    client.clientfunction = clientfunction; // target function
    ns.client = client;
    ns.play("sendtest");
    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. compile the code in the attachment to SendTestExample.swf (not be able to paste it here)
    2. run it under flash player 11.2.202.19 beta
    3. run it under flash player 11
    Actual Result:
    HeartBeat is:
    Start HeartBeat:
    send hello
    send hello
    send hello
    which means NetStream.send was not able to call "clientfunction" as expected.
    Expected Result:
    Start HeartBeat:
    send hello
    in client function: hello
    send hello
    in client function: hello
    send hello
    in client function: hello
    which can call into the clientfunction as flash player 11 did.
    Any Workarounds:
    I can not find it out since it's an api level bug. But this can be very important for lots of applications which rely on send to do rpc.

    if they will introduce any new flash version in future please tell
    me what is the permanent solution for this issue.

    There is no way to know what will change in the future. This
    is the solution that works now. It will probably remain in place
    for the reasonable future.

  • AIR SDK 17 (BETA) is not working with Flash CS6

    Hi,
    The latest AIR SDK 17 is not working with Flash CS6.
    I tried to publish and install an iOS app to my connected device via USB but I always get an error "Check if iTunes is installed".
    The latest stable AIR SDK 16 is working fine, and yes, iTunes is installed on my PC.
    DETAILS:
    - Flash CS6
    - AIR SDK 17
    - System: Windows 8,1
    - iPodTouch with iOS 8.1
    REPRODUCE:
    Open new AIR iOS template and publish/install it to a USB connected iOS 8.1 device.
    Anyone else got that error?

    I was getting this intermittently.   Not a super problem.   A remove and install in iTunes gets it loaded (after you tell ITunes where it is).

  • Embedfont = true; Japanese font is not working in Flash CC

    Hi,
    embedfont = true; was working in Flash CS6 (window XP, 32bit, Air SDK 15.0)
    But I moved same project to new system. Then, it's not working. (Flash CC, window 7 pro, 64bit, SDK 17.0).
    textfield shows nothing. But if I remove this code (embedfont = true;). Textfield shows texts applied default fonts.
    Funny part is English and Korean(My language) Embedfont is working perfectly.
    Only japanese font is not working.
    I've tried several japanese font, but all of them were not working.
    Any Idea would be appreciate.

    Amy~ Yep the lasso tool was what I verified with another user. 'L' seems to be bound indefinitely to loop through different types of lasso tools and it was annoying them because they just wanted L to be the regular freehand lasso. I removed 'L' from being an option on the polygon lasso and even set it explicitly to SHIFT+L as well as set the lasso tool to a completely different keyboard combo. 'L' still cycled through lassos haha. It needs some fixes.
    fertolg~ At least you have a workaround for now. I'd go nuts if I couldn't use keyboard text selection writing code, oy! You're welcome and if you're all set please mark correct so we can filter unanswered. Good luck!

  • I am getting frustrated with Apple not working with Flash player on some of my favorite web sites. Is there any alternative that will work on I-pad instead of flash?

    I am getting frustrated with Apple not working with Flash Player on some of my favorite web sites! Is there another alternative to watching these site options on my I-pad?

    Flash is not, and probably never will be, supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Plus it would be up to Adobe to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices - something which they have never managed to do and which they have now given up on trying to do.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter and Puffin 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, so your could try checking there for your sites (and there is the built-in YouTube app).

  • Why "send sms" not work in flash lite3 ???

    hello
    i write this code for send sms in device :
    on(release) {
    if(_capSMS)
    getURL("sms:" add myNumber add "?body=" add myText);
    it work fine in flash lite1.1 & 2.x
    but not work in flash lite 3 !!!!!
    what shall i do ? please help me
    can i make the command geturl to work on flashlite 3?
    or how can i open an url from flash lite 3?
    please help me

    Hi,
    It appears that the problem is with the security sandbox. To
    be able to send an SMS, it looks like you have to publish for Flash
    Lite 3, and in the Publish Settings, set 'Local playback security'
    to 'Access network only'. I used the following code:
    on (release) {
    if (System.capabilities.hasSMS) {
    getURL("sms:" + myNumber + "?body=" + myText);
    And it would only work when the publish settings were set as
    above. This was testing on a Nokia E65 with the developer edition
    of FL3 installed.
    Hope this helps!

  • 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 -->

    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?

  • Menus not working when flash movie is added

    We have some menus on our portal and if we add a flash movie, the submenus under the menus will not work on IE6, however in IE7 and firefox it works fine. When we remove the flash movie all the submenus will work on IE6, IE7 and firefox.
    Any help on this?
    Thanks
    Here is the code for our flash stuff
    <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://dddd.swf" id="FlowPlayer" height="270" width="360">
    <param name="movie" value="http://ddd.swf" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <param name="scale" value="noScale" />
    <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
    <param name="flashvars" value="config={videoFile: 'http://dd/1/134263.FLV', autoPlay: false, loop: false, showMenu: false, initialScale: 'orig' }" /></object>

    You can try 3 things :
    - use full urls in your menu : http://your_portal:your_porta/portal/page/portal/... instead of just "/portal/page/portal/...."
    - embed" your menu code as well as your flash code with a complete html code (<html><head></head><body>...</body></html>
    - spceify some <base url=...> in the head section of each. There can be conflicts about this. When you say your menu does not work, you mean the links are wrong when you click on a submenu ? What is the url of the link and what is the url you're getting at ?

  • Quicktime plugin for screen capture does not work in flash player 11.2

    Hello,
                   I have created a quicktime plugin (it is .component file) for screen sharing purpose.
    I have used quicktime framework for that. plugin is detected in flash player.
    This plugin is working perfectly for flash player 11 and below.But,
    It does not working in latest flash player 11.2.
    I have seen following error on console -
    Google Chrome Helper EH[240:e92b] *** QTCaptureSession warning:
    Session received the following error while decompressing video:
    Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-8974
    "The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -8974.)".
    Make sure that the formats of all video outputs are properly configured
    Note - Compression format used in plugin is kBMPCodecType.
    Please, help me.

    The issue ended up being the change in resolution to my external monitor. Flash was unable to detect the proper coordinates of the color I was trying to select because I was running my monitor in HD mode rather than selecting an actual resolution from my monitor preferences. Changing the settings to an acutal resolution, instead of generic "HD mode" fixed the issue.
