The Flash animation on StanLee.net displays, but never leaves the loading screen. Its as if the download on the fly code in flash never gets activated. I am using the Flash 4 plugin for Nav 4 in mozilla. Build: 2000031314 On a Win98 machine. I have also tried it on an NT 4 machine (I think its the same in Win2k as well) I just tried some of the movies on www.shockwave.com - wierd things happen. Some plugins don't display, others run fine, others crash the browser.

[nsbeta2-] unless this can be demonstrated on a more common site.

http://stanlee.net/ - is big in the comic book world http://www.nikefootball.com/language_flash4.html (Choose English)- Other places on nike.com as well. http://www.shockwave.com/ It just sits at a black screen! http://www.turbonium.com/ Stops half way though. Possibly other www.vw.com sites. thats just after looking for a couple minutes... I'm sure I could find more.

I just found out that the flash files which are not loading are externally loaded flash files. (I know that the nikeshopathletesworld.com flash is done this way) In Flash 4 this is how they are loaded: actionscript --> load movie --> blah.swf --> layer 1 On pages where the objects are not external swf's, the pre-loaders work fine. Its only when they are external do they fail in mozilla/nav 6. Eg, here is one that works: http://www.nikeshopathletesworld.com/en/home.html (This one is not externally loaded - I've seen the source)

This looks similar to http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37710. LiveConnect of legacy plugins is not supported and won't be supported.

But this isn't live connect. Liveconnect is javascript... this doesn't use any javascriupt.

Admittedly, I'm not too familiar with the scripting of Flash, but it looks like the code on some of these pages are expecting js callbacks. The callbacks won't happen if they rely on liveconnect. But in anycase, there shouldn't be any crashes. What do you mean by an externally loaded file? Maybe this is really http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23667.

Flash files can load external flash files. For example, the flash on www.eightlines.com loads an external .swf file which is a picture of a tree. In Mozilla you don't see the tree because the plugin never downloads the file. If the flash plugin is streaming the file then yes, I think this bug is the same as (or is dependant on) 15546

I retried this page with today's build. Now I no longer see the "Loading" message since the webpage seems to have changed. It appears the same on 4.x and seamonkey. Flash contents display and work fine. Could anybody onfirm this? Thanks!
