In the page at http://mecagora.free.fr/bug/animation_ia1.htm, fscommand are not
executed.
Separately, the Flash and the Virtools object run correctly, but not in the same
page (It runs under Internet Explorer). It seems the presence of two plugins
stop the execution of fscommand...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch the webpage : http://mecagora.free.fr/bug/animation_ia1.htm
2. After Virtools and Flash (no preloader, please wait...) objects were loaded,
click on "Activer" button.

Actual Results:  
The Flash interface is just unfreeze.

Expected Results:  
The Flash interface is unfreeeze, a Virtools animation is launched (with a
camera transition), and the Flash interface is enabled.

More information : 
When you click on "Activer" button (Flash), it occurs 2 things in parallel :
- the blue "fog" over the interface disappear (set to invisible);
- a call to a fscommand is activated to start the Virtools animation, which 
when it finished, returns an action "to activate" the interface. 
With FireFox/Mozilla, it is this call to the fscommand which is not executed. 
So, the blue fog disappear (normal, it is only ActionScript), but animation is 
not started, and thus, a fortiori, the activation of the Flash interface.

So, when i say "the interface is unfrezeed", it means that the blue fog 
disappear. And when i say "the interface is enabled", it means that buttons can 
be clicked.
