Flash refuses to Refresh on FireFox

Hello,

Having difficulty finding the solution to this problematic issue.

I've created a Network Menu in Flash that ties all of the sites and pages together. It works fine.

The problem comes in when running it via FireFox. Safari seems to reloads/refreshes the Flash fine. As does IE on PC. But both PC and Mac refuses to refresh the file if using FireFox.

But for some reason, FireFox  on the Mac refuses to refresh the Flash file. It keeps showing an older  version that has since been over-written with the updated version.

I'm posting this thread on Adobe & FireFox threads.

I just need a solution to this issue. It happens with other Flash files as well. But mostly with Custom Built SWFs

Thanks in advance.

The file in question can be found here (There should be more links and a "LIVE" button at the bottom) >> http://www.dovm.org/DOVM_AVP.html

    Hi, I don't know what Adobe Program you are using, but perhaps the Flash Forum or a Forum that pertains to your Adobe Program would be more suitable. This is the Flash Player Forum.

    Thanks,

    Nah, this is the correct place for it.

    Using Flash8 but that's not the issue. It's the Flash Player in conjunction with FireFox. Positive of it.

    Hi, you may think so, but I disagree. You don't understand Flash Player and I don't understand Flash nor Custom Built SWF's nor do I know what you mean about a Network Menu in Flash, LOL

    Take a look at the threads that are posted here on the Flash Player Forum, they are about Flash Player. Also, there is a Sticky at the top of the Flash Player Forum :

    Please note that this forum category is for help with the Flash Player and NOT for users seeking assistance with programming Flash and/or Flex. If you are seeking assistance with programming, click here and choose the proper category to post in.

    The Adobe experts on what you do and your problems are not on this Flash Player forum.
