I'm using swfObject to embed a flash player in my app. Sporadically, I see errors in FireFox (only, not in IE or Chrome) when trying to communicate with the embedded flash object. The error says "SetVariable is not a function". The code which causes this error executed fine just moments ago, and now shows this error. If I re-load the pag...

I have isolated an issue I am having with Flash in IE7+ but don't know how to fix it. The issue is when you first go to the flash website in IE everything works fine, but when you refresh nothing appears. I am dynamically loadng in XML and have added the caching fix found here so I have eliminated that bug. What I have discovered is that...

In the combo Silverlight/Flex UI that I'm working on, I sometimes need to make the SWF/Flash object hosting the user's webcam smaller than 214x137. But if I make the flash object that small before the user has selected "Accept" in the webcam dialog box, Flash won't allow the user to click on the "Accept" button. (And if I make it that ...
I may be completely insane on this one, but it seems like the download/buffer rate of YouTube videos is faster at the beginning and the further the buffer point gets from the currently playing mark, the slower buffering goes. Am I crazy, or does it work this way for everyone else? Assuming the latter, any theories on how they do it? Is...

I have a pure ActionScript project. I'm using Flex Builder on a Mac, Flex SDK 3.4 and I've even added the playerglobal.swc from the Flash folder to the project's library path.

This is a situation I run into a lot but never seem to find a good solution. I have movieclips that I scale up slightly on rollover, but if you hover over the edge of the movieclip it just sits there and flickers, continuously receiving mouseOver and mouseOut events. How do you deal with this? Again, it's usually a problem when tweening ...

I'm working on a banner that reveals a new design on rollover, and switches back to the first design on rollout. This part works fine. However, the problem is ...
