132188 - javascript function is not found when flash calls it

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

and then click to the flash, written Bele'pe's on it.

Problem: It calls MM_openBrWindow, which, in fact, is defined. However,
the javascript console reports: Error: MM_openBrWindow is not defined.

Result: since Bele'pe's in Hungarian means Enter, one cannot
enter the page... And I found the same problem with a couple of other
pages, and while flash gains popularity, the problem becomes more and
more serious.

this is working fine on win32 and macOSX, this needs to be verified on unix.

Shrir -- can you try this out on linux

yup, wfm on linux build 0413. JS console is clean as anything. Maybe the webpage 
changed some code and this works now. Reporter, pls verify.

With Mozilla 0.9.8, on Solaris Sparc the problem exists. Please make sure, that
you clicked on the flash, not the link under that (the flash brings you to the
flash version, the simple text link brings you to the html version). If you
click on the flash, you should have a window with the content of
http://www.medgyessy.hu/flash.htm

However, my mozilla just opens an empty window. I can manually go to
http://www.medgyessy.hu/flash.htm, but the flash does not bring me there.

Perhaps it got better with 0.9.9 so you don't see the problem? Or perhaps it is
Solaris/Sparc specific?

Baldwin, yes , I clicke don the flash link, not the hmtl link. Pls try a recent 
build and check again ...and yeah can be that this is Solaris specific. Thanks 
for your patience !

I needed to compile mozilla, because a patch for flash on solaris was not
included yet. If that remained unincluded, that would mean that I need to
compile again. My boss would fire me from the university... Tomorrow i'll check
if the flash patch is included which at least makes possible to play flash here,
and if so, I'll try a recent version. If not, I am sorry, I am not able to...

Same here, I clicked on the flash "Belepes >" and not the html link "flash"
