289324 - Flash noresize fullscreen mode not working in firefox

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Simon James Franco]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2

I've tried this both on windows XP and Mac osX and they both react the same way.
A demonstration is available at www.simonfranco.com. If you open the site with
firefox and Internet Explorer, you will see the obvious difference. For some
reason firefox decides to place the swf at the very top, even covering some of it.
the code used for this example is an exact copy from www.actionscript.com (where
you will also find links to other sites containing the same code, therefore
producing the same unwanted effect in firefox). unfortunately I have no
sugestions or workarounds for this bug.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. just refresh page.

Actual Results:  
For some reason firefox decides to place the swf at the very top, even covering
part of it.

Expected Results:  
swf movie should be shown exactly in the center of the screen, as it doen in
internet explorer
