Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101203 Firefox/3.6.13 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729)

I`m having problems with a site under construction http://vizfx.ro/teste/ - link TurVR. 
I`m using jQuery Colorbox Overlay with Shockwave 3D (default 3D rendering). Google Chrome and even IE works fine.
Firefox repositions the overlay at the top left corner instead of the center with 2 overlay areas (top & center). If I move the cursor the position is corrected.
Details: – Firefox 3.6.13, Shockwave plugin 11.5.9.615


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to http://vizfx.ro/teste/
2. click on TurVR
3. loading Shockwave 3D
Actual Results:  
Shockwave 3D window repositioned at top-left corner instead of center

Expected Results:  
correct position (center) in the jQuery overlay

sometimes this behavior appears on pages with embedded 3D Shockwave (not overlays) when you scroll the page in time of the loading. The Shockwave moves outside the <div>. If you scroll again the position it is corrected.

I`ve tried two workarounds and unfortunately none worked:
- another html with a small W3D and redirect after 5 seconds – in the same JQuery overlay
- div animation with java script:
<script>
$(window).load(function () {
if ($('#continut').is(":hidden")) {
$('#continut').slideDown("slow");
} else {
$('#continut').hide();
}
});
</script>

I`m still searching for a workaround
