789604 - Nightly - games.latimes.com - No Games Load After Advertisement Pop-Up

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 786650

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Chris B.]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; rv:15.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/15.0.1
Build ID: 20120905151427

Steps to reproduce:

Try to load games on (games.latimes.com) using the latest Nightly.  Nothing will appear after the advertisement loads (including the daily crossword puzzle).  Version 15 works fine.

Flash Version and Graphics Card version are all up to date (11.4.402.265 and NVIDIA 306.02 Beta respectively with a GeForce GTS450).


Actual results:

Can't load any games on games.latimes.com.  This site is Flash-based and other Flash sites work fine, so can't determine the cause.  Could maybe go back with older Nightly Builds, but would have to do that one day after work.


Expected results:

Should be able to play the Flash-based games, like on www.patsajakgames.com.

Thanks, Alice0775!  Good to know a patch is in the works.
What version of Firefox is the fix for Bug 786650 aimed for?

This bug was caused by bug 745030, which is currently only on FF17+. The fix will land on FF18 next week, and will most likely be uplifted to FF17 after that
