Hi again, I'm just trying to get an answer from Adobe about the problem, nothing more, nothing less. And if the answers is: "hey dude, this is not going to work properly, ever", then please just completely remove wmode. It is getting people mad.
Then, I don't care (well, I care, but that's not the point now) about the problems of developing cross-platform standars-compliant HTML websites. What it is worth here is improving/fixing the Flash player. Cheers, Juan On 10/11/06, Steven Sacks | BLITZ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Don't use wmode. It's that simple. You can complain about it until you're blue in the face and it won't do any good. The fact is that wmode is inconsistent across browsers and platforms, and I doubt it's ever going to be fixed so you need to alter your approach. You want to see frustration? Hang out with some senior level web developers for awhile. I don't understand how they stay sane with all the hacking they have to do. Web Developers are forced to contend with a broken compiler that is used by 90% of the public (Internet Explorer) which tries to fix their code for them at runtime (making debugging difficult), and have to code against three or more different compilers (Firefox, Safari, Opera) that all compile their code differently from one another. CSS, a widely used technology, is, in some ways, borderline broken in IE6 and only after about five years is Microsoft doing anything about it with IE7. Best of luck in your endeavor to get Adobe to fix an edge case issue with an extremely rarely used feature that has inconsistent behavior across browsers due to browsers being inconsistent. Your energy is better spent explaining to your bosses the realities of web development. I hate web development. That's why I do Flash development. ;) _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
