Flash :: WMODE Firefox Issue

Wmode:transparent,interactivity Issue --- Firefox
Hello everybody,

I post a similar thread before, but maybe it was a little mixed up, after trying a menu on the server many times, i found that it has a big problem; when displayed in firefox, I mean, the transparency works fine, but the buttons (over the iframe "contents", because part of the flash menu is over an iframe) are useless. But when I put the iframe completely below the flash menu, buttons work again!... I'm not sure if this is a bug in firefox, i searched some and looks like many people have problems with using flash interactivity w/transparency in firefox., well here are the two examples I made, if someonecan help me it with be really cool, cause I already did it and client likes it, but if its never going to work i might make something different...

1)http://www.manuelhuertas.net/ozomate/ozomatemenu2.html
(this is how the menu should be over the iframe but buttons aren't working)

2)http://www.manuelhuertas.net/ozomate/ozomatemenu.html
(this is the same menu, but as I mentioned the iframe completely below the flash menu)

Firefox 3 Bug? Or My Bad? Or WMODE Again?
Hello there:
usually I don't post questions, because mos of my questions can be answered via Google, which most of the times shows me answers from here.

please go to the following URL using any browser except FF3

http://www.urod.cl/ (choose english, then, "lawyers")

Now go to the same section in the same URL using FF3...

Now the list component just isn't there!!!!, this only happens using FF3 , have tried IE6, IE7, FF2, Chrome, and in every one works perfect, the strange thing is that we hadn't noticed until today, and this site has been up for quite a while.

don't know if this is also happening on MACs

I need to know why this is happening, or what can I do... ¿could it be the WMODE? I know one can always code the list component again, but I don't want to.

any help would be appreciated...

[MX04] Wmode In Firefox
save me from pulling my hair out, please!!!!!

this thread is cross platform html and flash

i have an html table

one of the cells has three layers using z-index

layer 1) the backgorund jpeg of the cell
layer 2) the a href text links
layer 3) a flash movie

here is the sample site

www.freewebs.com/audio_data01

my problem is that firefox can see the hidden a href links but they are "dead"

when i test in internet explorer the same hidden a href links are "active"

hence the reference earlier about my hair !>.<!

i have used the window mode function to uncover the a href links

wmode="transparent"

i have found one example site that uses this effect that works

please see here.........

http://toronto.bluejays.mlb.com/index.jsp?c_id=tor

as you can see, the video (on thte right hand side) slides down to uncover the a href html links and they ARE active in both IE and FF

as you can also see, this effect IS do-able

i have found about 40 zillion posts about this problem with no success so i thought i would try a flash forum

again, please help save my hair

thanks, sophia

Wmode - Mozilla Firefox
I'm new to flash and have a web banner that was created in flash. I have
dropdown menus above the flash banner, whcih cause the menus to display
behind the flash web banner.

I set the wmode property to transparent for the flash object. The dropdown
menus are no longer hidden behind the flash object in IE and Netscape. But,
Firefox is still causing the menus to display behind the flash object? Is
there a way to correct this in FF?

Thank you.

Wmode In Firefox Links Don't Work
I'm having a problem with using the wmode transparent in firefox. Everything works fine but the html links underneath the flash movie aren't clickable anymore.

Does anybody know how to solve this problem? I've been trying to figure this out for a week and I'm running out of time.

Please help.

Wmode, Overflow:hidden, Firefox, Help
Ok. I have a problem.

I have a video player that I'm creating that can be dynamically sized. The SWF will reside in an absolute-positioned div that has overflow:hidden. The SWF is set to not scale, and the viewable area is clipped by the div's viewable area.

Ok, not a problem.

Then, I wanted to have the SWF be transparent. wmode="transparent", here I come. Ok, that's fine. The SWF can be viewed fine in it's clipped div in both FF and IE.

So now, I want to add the capability of going fullscreen. Ok, apparently fullscreen CANNOT be used with wmode="transparent" or wmode="opaque". Ok, I can live without the SWF being transparent. Bye-bye, wmode parameter.

BUT now, in FireFox, without wmode="transparent" or wmode="opaque", the overflow:hidden is IGNORED for the SWF! The whole damn huge SWF appears regardless of the div's overflow.

Is this a bug? Is there any way around it other than using wmode (and therefore, losing fullscreen capability)?

This is really frustrating - Fullscreen is such a good feature, but all the caveats are making it less and less usable.

Any help is appreciated.

Flash Wmode Not Really Transparent In Firefox
So my Flash navigation in Firefox isn't really transparent. I mean, everything below the flyout navigation appears just fine and in this sense it is transparent. But I have some links there that cannot be clicked in Firefox, works great in IE7. I'm using swfobject with an addParam("wmode", "transparent");

Anybody else ever have this problem? I'm pretty sure I can make a workaround with JavaScript but I'd really rather not do this if at all possible.

Thanks

Flash In Firefox WMode=Transparent Problem
Hi,

I recently added a flash video to this page: http://www.aga-web.co.uk/48.htm.

In IE it works fine and all links behind the flash movie can be linked. But if you view the page in FireFix 2.0, it shows the links behind the video, buy you cannot access them. The embed code im using is:

------------------------------------------------------
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.agalinks.com/siteimages/site_101/FVideo/swfobject.js"></script>

Wmode=opaque Creates A Problem In Firefox
Hi all,

I've just noticed this issue(or perhaps a bug?) in firefox 1.03/1.04. When the wmode parameter in HTML is set to opaque/transparent, the hover areas in flash will be "displaced" when scrolling the whole html document.

To reproduce this issue/bug, use firefox to visit http://mnjul.net/hoppertemp/ when it finished loading, resize the browser window to a smaller size so that you get the vertical scroller.
Now, scroll the page all the way down, and then half-way up. You should notice that all the button hover areas are "displaced".

Is there any workarounds for this issue if I have to use wmode=opaque? The reason for using wmode as opaque is because I will be placing a google ad on top of the flash content.

Thanks a lot

High CPU For Wmode=transparent On IE (Firefox Is Fine)
I've got a transparent Flash embed in a <div> with a tiled background image, and the CPU usage is near 50%. I can understand the CPU usage being high with wmode=transparent, but it only happens in IE; Firefox is more reasonable (10%).

Anyone else notice significantly higher CPU usage in IE? (for wmode=transparent on a div with a background image).

HELP : "wmode" Parameter For FIREFOX, MOZILLA & OPERA
Hello,

First of all, I would like to thank the helpers on this forum. They really are very impressive. More power . . . .

My question goes something like this,

In flash movies having WHITE BACKGROUNDS, flash has a parameter called "WMODE" which enables flash movies with white background to be transparent when viewed in INTERNET EXPLORER. Thus, when you RIGHT CLICK on the white portion of the movie, it would display the MACROMEDIA CONTEXT but instead show an HTML CONTEXT. However, I tried viewing my website under FIREFOX and found out that this parameter below

<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

does not work in FIREFOX. Is there any equivalent code for that wherein it will work for FIREFOX & maybe OPERA too? The entire code goes like this:

<param name="movie" value="swf/homepage.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<param name="menu" value="false">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
<param name="bgcolor" value="000000">

set in the HTML SOURCE CODE and the effects can be shown in the file I have attached together with this thread.

Cheers,
Allan

Firefox Doesn't See WMODE="transparent"
Hi there,

I've got some nice flash buttons on my site. They work fine and the buttons have a transparency setting that works fine in IE6 and Netscape7.

However, I've just installed Firefox 1.0.4, and the transparency is no longer, no longer visible, if you get my drift. You get the buttons, but this 'visible' background.

For IE I use: - <PARAM NAME="wmode" VALUE="transparent">
no worries
For Netscape I use: - WMODE="transparent"
again, no worries.

Any idea what to use for Firefox?

It's a bit of a concern seeing that this browser's usage statistics are around 20% now.

Cheers,
Bes.

Firefox And Wmode="transparant", No Go.
I'm making a website with some flash animations in it, and a mp3 player in flash. I tried making one large flashmovie wich includes all, with the full width and height of the site, on top of everything with wmode="transparant". But this has problems in Firefox because i can't use my DHTML menu and links behind the flash.. in IE this works well.

If it's possible i like to keep one flashmovie.. and not seperate it in parts, because the animations are overlapping eachother. I think this will be difficult with seperate movies. Can anyone think of a solution to this problem?

Thanks in advance,

Wmode="transparent" Issue
I have a combobox component in my flash movie and i have embedded it in a html file. This is the code i have used to have it embedded, so as to make the movie background transparent. Note the 'wmode' parameter which i have set to 'transparent'.

HTML Code:
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<embed src="Listbox.swf" width="550" height="400" quality="high"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent"></embed>
Now i cant see any of the flash builtin components contained in the movie - be it a combobox component, button component or colorpicker component. All the other custom components that i created seems to work fine. But if i remove the 'wmode' parameter from the HTML code, all the components work just fine!!!

FireFox Issue
Does anyone here experience major problems with Firefox and Flash?

I've been on some sites where I cannot add copy into a form if it's designed in Flash.

And also, check out this site in FireFox and then in either Safari or Explorer:

Any suggestions on how I can fix this issue?

On on a Mac, so that may be part of the problem... if the site works fine on FireFox on the PC... that would be great. I haven't tested that yet. So please let me know.

Hello All,

I have an issue that I can't seem to figure out, maybe someone has encountered this before.....

http://www.jhey.com/dev/_loader/

Everything works fine in IE and in FireFox on PHP Version 4.4.1.

But when it is uploaded to PHP 4.3.2, it works fine in IE but does NOT work in FireFox

Any ideas?

The swf uses a php script to determine the swfs' dimensions, then resizes itself accordingly.

LoadVars And Firefox Issue
While using LoadVars.sendAndLoad, I'm getting a weird error. It works in IE but not Firefox? Is this a known bug? I was using load() but it never worked in Firefox and in IE it always opened a new window.

All I'm trying to do is send data out of flash to a php script that emails it.

I now have it working in IE fine but Firefox still isn't cooperating.

Thoughts?

PHP Code

PHP Code:

<?php
    $name = $HTTP_POST_VARS['name'];
    $organization = $HTTP_POST_VARS['organization'];
    $telephone = $HTTP_POST_VARS['telephone'];
    $email = $HTTP_POST_VARS['email'];
    $date = $HTTP_POST_VARS['date'];
    $location = $HTTP_POST_VARS['location'];
    $guests = $HTTP_POST_VARS['guests'];
    $age = $HTTP_POST_VARS['age'];

    mail("dave@daveydavecomedy.com", "ONLINE BOOKING REQUEST :: DAVEYDAVECOMEDY.COM", "PERSONAL INFORMATION

Name: $name
Organization: $organization

EVENT INFORMATION

Number of Guests: $guests

?>

And actionscript:

emailData = new LoadVars();
resultLoadVar = new LoadVars();
emailData.name = name.text;
emailData.organization = organization.text;
emailData.telephone = telephone.text;
emailData.email = email.text;

Mac Firefox Issue. Not Sure What's Happening Here
I have an image zoomer type component I'm working with. Starts off with a small image of a product, when you click it jumps to a big image that you can scroll around to see all the details of the product. For some reason on a Mac in Firefox the big image isn't loading. I have the vars being passed to the .swf file in the object tag, because it's for a commerce site the easiest way to change this information seemed to be that way. If anyone could take a look at it and see if they can spot anything wrong that would be awesome. Here's my object tag code below:

Code:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="imagewithzoom.swf?image=images/product_small.jpg&imagebig=images/product_big.jpg&imgW=258&imgH=258" width="258" height="258">

Browser Issue (firefox)
I hope I am posting this in the correct forum, I used MX to make a site for a friend last year. Recently, she called me to inform me that when folks log on using Firefox the site opens as a small thumbnail (almost a tenth of it's normal size). I am new to this issue, it may be that I am doing something wrong that Firefox doesn't like?? I don't think I embedded this site in HTML, so could that be the problem? If someone is familliar with this issue or can look at the source on her opening page and tell me if I have something there that is causing this shrinking page problem...I am clueless and would very interested in knowing.
Her site is: www.susanlisbin.com

[F8] Firefox Flash Issue... A New One
I have embedded three Flash objects using the ActiveX fix provided by Adobe (Macromedia). See them at: http://www.shewdesign.com/activeX/te...treatment.html

If you are viewing them in IE, and have the latest FlashPlayer, all three of the Flash movies should work correctly. HOWEVER, two of the three are NOT working correctly when viewed in Firefox.

The first instance of Flash is the little purple button (looks like a Jelly Bean). In IE, the word balloon pops up over the text when you click on it. But it's no longer working in Firefox.

The second instance is a Flash movie that has two frames on the timeline. The first is what you're seeing "Play Now". When you click on that, it moves to the second frame which contains an .flv.

Again, you already know this if you opened it in IE. So why isn't it working in FF?

You can see that it DOES work in Firefox if I embed it the "old" way (post-EOLAS issue) here: http://www.shewdesign.com/activeX/test-notreatment.html

HELP!?!?!?!?!?

Firefox Preloader Issue From Within A .swf
My preloader animation doesn't show up until after the external .swf has fully loaded. There's just a pause, and then the image shows up.

I have a main .swf website for my portfolio gallery. From within this .swf, I have buttons that will call upon a loader component to load up an external .swf file, on which there is a preloader and an image file.

The preloader I used was the one shown in this tutorial: http://www.actionscripts.org/tutoria...er/index.shtml

I modified the preloader so it looks different, but the code is basically the exact same (I did modify the line of code that determine's how long the bar grows to. Instead of loadBar._width = per; as is listed in the tutorial, mine reads this: loadBar._width = per*2;

Once the external .swf is fully loaded onto my computer, the image shows up. Again, there was no preloader animation prior to this. Just a blank box, and then *bam*, image. Upon clicking on the link AGAIN, the preloader runs just fine. The loader animation blitzes through, plays animation that fades the image in, and stops on the last frame, like it's supposed to.

But I want the preloader to do this while the user waits for the image to ACTUALLY load, rather than staring at a blank box and wondering if they did something wrong.

The way I currently have it set up works fine with my version of Internet Explorer, but not in Firefox. Is this common? Is there a workaround?

You can see the issues in progress here:
http://www.sevenskulls.com/brar/test.html
The external .swfs only contain images, so I'm not sure how noticeable the error is on broadband. But it's quite noticeable on dial-up.

Strange Issue With Firefox ?
I have a movie which loads on streaming some mp3, it runs smooth with IE but in Firefox, the mp3 has a different bitrate, like 3 times faster, it sounds funny but is not what I was looking for exactly.
Never seen something like this before....
Maybe has something to do with plugging or with the fact that I have installed today the trial of Flash CS3 and with it comes the CS3 player???

Code:
stop();
function loadSounds(speech){
s = new Sound();
s.loadSound("audio/"+_global.speech+".mp3",true);
s.setVolume(50);
}
_global.speech = "hello";
loadSounds();

Issue With Preloader In Firefox
HI Folks

I am having a small issue in Firefox using the following standardised preloader. I use a container to load an external .swf for smooth transitions using a midpoint variable and it seems that Firefox is still trying to download after the preloader has run. The sites seem to work fun but I am worried that it may be an issue.

The preloader code is:

Code:
stop();

_level0.preloaderGraphics._visible = false;

this.onEnterFrame = function() {
if (this.getBytesLoaded()<this.getBytesTotal()) {
_level0.preloaderGraphics._visible = true;
Total = this.getBytesTotal()/1000;
Received = this.getBytesLoaded()/1000;
Percentage = (Received/Total)*100;
_level0.preloaderGraphics.percent = Math.round(Percentage)+"%";
_level0.preloaderGraphics.progressBar._xscale = Percentage;
} else {
this.gotoAndPlay("intro");
this.onEnterFrame = null;
_level0.preloaderGraphics._visible = false;
}
};
and this is placed in the first keyframe of the external swf's as well. For an example have a look at www.antheaj.com and you will notice that it still says "transferring data from..." at the bottom left of the status bar after the page has loaded rather than "done". This tells me that it is still trying to download the page well after it has been downloaded!

Can anyone suggest why this is happening or an improvement to this preloader - I have used it on about 20 sites and I am really concerned!

Cheers

Rendering Issue On Firefox Mac OsX
When I place a flash object inside a div (with a high z-index) and absolutely place it over other content on a web-page I'm having rendering issues.

1. When the user scrolls most parts of the flash disappear and the background shows through. Motion inside the flash causes the moving parts to be redrawn and rendered.. but without the other previously rendered parts of the flash.

2, When flash or animated gifs have motion under the flash I'm trying to render they render over my flash. Motion within my flash re-renders over those...

I've tried several things.. z-indexes, putting the flash in an iframe, and using SWFobject.

This works fine on firefox and ie for windows. I'm using the latest version of osX, firefox, and flash. Has anybody else experienced this problem?? Does anybody have a work-around for this bug?

Thanks,
--joe

Site Issue In Firefox
I may need to address this in a dreamweaver forum, but I'll give it a shot here first. Please view this website: Matrix Media Concepts. The site works properly in all browsers, but it does something goofy in Firefox. A black bar shows up above the flash, which leads me to think its in my html. Thoughts?

Firefox Display Issue
The attached code runs like a dream in IE, but I only see a block of my background color when I open with Firefox. This feels like it should be really simple to fix, but after hours of scratching my head, I am reaching out for help in the hope that someone can tell me what boneheaded thing I did wrong. Code attached. Thanks.

Attach Code

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
id="widget" width="300" height="250"
codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/swflash.cab">

AS3 FireFox NetStream Issue
Hi everyone!

I hope that some AS3 guru can help me

I have one AS3 development trouble which I can't solve during weeks...
It's a phantom bug from FireFox flash player...

I will be happy if anybody can help me.

Short info about bug:

I have one AS3 swf(1) loader, that loads another AS3 coded swf (2).

(2)swf contains code, which gets webCam video, and then publish it to FMS3 server.
All is ok in IE7, but in FireFox any mouse event stops the stream publishing without any reason... (ex: MouseOver to video object on the stage, that shows video from webCam (local video, not published on fms)).

Swf published to the Internet server.
If I open (2)swf directly (without loading it into another swf) - all works fine in both browsers.

Thank you in advance!
Have a great day!

Issue Betwen IE And Firefox
I have an application that has this script:

Code:

ref = _root;
valorCart = _root.idCartelera;
valorUser = _root.id_user;
//
//valorCart = 14;
//valorUser = 4;
//
a = 0;
//
function chequearInicio(valor1, valor2, valor3, valor4) {
//
a++;
miIntervalo.clearInterval();
//
for (s=1; s<249; s++) {
ref["butaca"+s].gotoAndStop(1);
}
//
this.checkText.text = a;
//
lasButacas = new Array();
losElementos = new Array();
misButacas = new Array();
misElementos = new Array();
//
URLpath = "butaca_user.php?id_cartelera="+valor1+"&butaca="+valor2+"&id_user="+valor3+"&accion="+valor4;
datosme = new LoadVars();
datosme.sendAndLoad(URLpath, datosme, "POST");
datosme.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
misButacas = datosme.butacas_user.split(",");
lasButacas = datosme.butacas.split(",");
for (k=0; k<misButacas.length; k++) {
misElementos[k] = new MovieClip();
misElementos[k].cosas = new Array();
misElementos[k].cosas = misButacas[k].split("_");
misElementos[k].ids = misElementos[k].cosas[0];
misElementos[k].estado = misElementos[k].cosas[1];
ref["butaca"+(misElementos[k].ids)].miEstado = misElementos[k].estado;
//
//
ref["butaca"+(misElementos[k].ids)].gotoAndStop(2);
//
//
}
//
for (z=0; z<lasButacas.length; z++) {
losElementos[z] = new MovieClip();
losElementos[z].cosas2 = new Array();
losElementos[z].cosas2 = lasButacas[z].split("_");
losElementos[z].ids2 = losElementos[z].cosas2[0];
losElementos[z].estado2 = losElementos[z].cosas2[1];
ref["butaca"+(losElementos[z].ids2)].miEstado = losElementos[z].estado2;
//
ref["butaca"+(losElementos[z].ids2)].gotoAndStop(3);
//
ref["butaca"+(losElementos[z].ids2)].enabled = false;
//
}
for (u=1; u<249; u++) {
//
ref["butaca"+u].onRelease = function() {
if (this.miAccion == 1) {
chequearInicio(valorCart, this.miNumero, valorUser, this.miAccion);
this.gotoAndStop(2);
}
if (this.miAccion == 2) {
chequearInicio(valorCart, this.miNumero, valorUser, this.miAccion);
this.gotoAndStop(1);
}
};
}
}
};
//
//
}
//
chequearInicio(valorCart, -1, valorUser, 3);
//
miIntervalo = setInterval(this, "chequearInicio", 4000, [valorCart], [-1], [valorUser], [3]);
//
//
continuarbtn.onRelease = function() {
getURL("teatro_entrada.php?products_id="+_root.products_id+"&idCartelera="+_root.id_cartelera+"&idLocal="+_root.idLocal);
};
stop();
The code goes to PHP file that print values that came from a database.
and changes the state of 249 buttons to RESERVED, TAKEN, BUYED AND FREE.
The issue is that when i try the APP in firefox or the flash player inside flash works fine, but when i tried on IE it doesn't, it look like the swf file has his own cache and doesn't refresh the values that came from the PHP.

Anyone knows why it happen this?

here is the fla file.

ExternalInterface / FireFox Issue
Hello everyone, new user to this forum and glad to be part of the Kirupa world.

I hope some of our findings for this issue will also help other people with a similar situation.
We've researched and experimented, but still unable to find a solution to this particular issue.

In FireFox is the clickable elements embedded in our flash movie cease to function after 1 click. SWFobject is utilized with "allowScriptAccess","sameDomain", and defined NAME and ID parameters as required by the browsers. Flash Player 9 is installed Flash 8 generates the *.SWF. Our project resides in a frameset environment....Flash in the top frame, and HTML in the bottom frame.

We tested in multiple browsers including FireFox 1.5.0.7 and found everything functioning as intended, except within FireFox. We traced our coding with alerts and tried substituting the External Interface.call with getURL(javascript:function().....), but once the JavaScript function completed, unable to communicate back with Flash. Most of our audience has Flash Player 9 already installed. Currently we are not passing any variables from Flash to JavaScript, just calling the function itself. This morning, we disabled all of our javascript alerts as we have researched this may cause some issues with the *.SWF

Is there a workaround or modification in addition to "getURL..." for this situation, or perhaps a specialized DOM? Appreciate the help and Thanks.
