I am currently working on a eLearning project, so... i'm using Cp 3...
After creating the first movie, I exported it to swf... and I saw a little problem: when I try to open the html file in Firefox, the browser displays only the Cp GUI, but no movie is played (although in IE works fine)... does anyone know a solution for this problem? I'm waiting for an answer a.s.a.p... (I'm a bit behind schedule, due to some technical problems)

Thanks

Hello again

Okay... I found the solution for my problem

In order to get it running on FF, i had to export the movie as a Flash 7 compatible... that was it...

Hello Rick

Well... it should work on any newer version of Firefox. I am currently using 2.0. When I try to open the .html file, it is located in the same directory with the resources. And, as I mentioned in my previous post, the .html file works great in Internet Explorer... the problem is that the customer wants to use Firefox...

Hope I can get an answer now...

Later edit:

I've rechecked the output files in Firefox 2.0.0.14, and they run fine But... I'm still waiting for an answer in case the customer doesn't update to FF 2.0.0.14

Hi again

Well... it should work on any newer version of Firefox.

I agree completely

I am currently using 2.0.

Thanks for that. I was wondering if perhaps you were using a beta for 3? (Seems I heard somewhere that Firefox 3 is in beta testing, which is why I asked. Thought perhaps you might be seeing a wrinkle with a beta version)

When I try to open the .html file, it is located in the same directory with the resources.

While it should work wherever the files are, I was sort of fishing to see if you were attempting to run from a server location. Often, we see that folks are attempting to run from a server and having issues as you cited. And often, we find that they failed to copy all the files to the server.

And, as I mentioned in my previous post, the .html file works great in Internet Explorer... the problem is that the customer wants to use Firefox...

Have you tested from the Customer setup or are you using Firefox on your own PC and concluding things don't work in Firefox?

Assuming that the files don't like Firefox in the version you are seeing issues with, (I'm not convinced that it's a Firefox version issue, but it could very well turn out that it is) if the customer is demanding that things work in Firefox, why would they balk at ensuring Firefox is at a certain version?

Cheers... Rick

Welcome to our community, Andrei

Sorry, but I think we need more information here before a coherent answer might be found. For example:

* What version of Firefox?
* Where are/is the file(s) when you are attempting to open them?

Sorry to fire back questions to a question, but there are just too many variables in the mix to say it might be this or that.

Cheers... Rick
