Strange browser issue with webcam and embedding

Hi there,  I'm having an extremely difficult time with webcam and browser issues. It's the strangest thing. Basically if you visit http://tinyurl.com/29ppl64 and try clicking on the Skip button then click webcam, try clicking the Allow button the webcam initiates properly. However if I change the object/embed elements size to 1014x740 the Allow button the site instantly breaks (doesn't allow you to click the button).  However when you go to the Swf directly and have it take up 100% of the screenspace the Allow option works perfectly. Take a look: http://tinyurl.com/2acxspf it's the craziest bug and I'm pretty sure I'm not doing anything incorrectly. I'm really at a stand still here.  Technically that entire registration component of the site is maintained in a class package that extends a MovieClip and is added to the stage then removed entirely when the process is completed.  I'd really appreciate the help, but seriously a case of beer (or you preferred poison) if you can help resolve this! 🙂  Dave

Hi there, thanks for your response. I'm in Firefox, but note the links I sent will work because the object/embed tag has been shrunk. If I were to modify the size to 1014x740 it wont work, the Allow button would be unclickable.  Take a look here: http://tinyurl.com/2756pye I've setup a version that is broken for you to test with. Note that I've included wmode="window" and still having the same issue.

Found this article a while back: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer10_security_changes_02.html#head35 that states I need to change my wmode to "window". I went ahead and did that but am still getting the same exact issues.
