User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:32.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/32.0 Build ID: 20140911151253 Steps to reproduce: In our website, After clicking upload button (using flash plugin), selecting file window going back side of browser window. This issue comes only firefox (tested 32, 31, 30 & 29) with latest flash plugin i.e shockwave 15.0.0.152. but It is working fine with all other major browsers (IE8+, Safari & Chrome). We are using YUI3.4.1 uploader and the same issue exist in YUI2 uploader. This is serious issue for website who were developed using YUI2 & < YUI3.4.1. I think, this issue may come with other JS frameworks who using upload with flash plugin. Unfortunately, I can not give a URL for the issue because our website requires authentication to go to that specific page. Any suggestion for fixing this issue in application side? Actual results: After clicking upload button (using flash plugin), selecting file window going back side of browser window. Expected results: File selecting window should be front of browser window. So that user can pick file and upload it.

This is not a recent regression, atleast I can reproduce the issu in Firefox10. Changing wmode to "window" instead of "transparent" seems to fix the problem. i.e., Changing wmode <param value="window" name="wmode"> instead of <param value="transparent" name="wmode">

Hello Alice0775 White, Thanks for your feedback. Yes I agree, this is not related to firefox latest version but in our case, this issue coming after updating latest flash plugin i.e shockwave 15.0.0.152. It is working fine if i degrade flash plugin. Also, "wmode=window" is not a correct solution for us. we need to make working with "wmode=transparent". because, We are creating button over flash using "wmode=transparent" but this case window is going back side. URL: http://jsfiddle.net/mail2asik/gzs3s3dt/3/ your proposed solution is, Here we can not create button over flash. URL: http://jsfiddle.net/mail2asik/gzs3s3dt/4/ Could you please suggest any other soulution to fix both issues 1) Button should be visible over flash 2) When click, file select window should be foreground Thank you!
So, is this Flash Plugin15.0.0.152 bug? Could you file a bug with bugbase.adobe.com ?

Yes may be, but the same version of flash plugin working with all other major browsers (IE8+, Safari, Chrome).
I have submitted a bug in adobe side also. https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3825634. but why this working in other browsers if suppose issue in flash plugin means? anyway, will be fixed in upcoming firefox releases?
