Hi there, right now we have a problem when writing SWF
Catcher for the browser.
When a SWF movie loads external data, plugin has to call the
following browser functions:
NPN_GetURL/NPN_GetURLNotify/NPN_PostURL/NPN_PostURLNotify. However,
when using FLVPlayback component, FLV files are loaded by the
plugin directly bypassing browser’s security and not calling the
required functions. Can this be overcome anyhow?
Why does the plugin ignore calling these functions when
working with FLV files?
Can anyone tell me why I am getting a border around my swf
file with it is imbedded on a Html page and displayed in Internet
Explorer on a PC?
The swf acts as a link, (pointer becomes a finger), and when
you click once in the swf area, the border disappears and the swf
file becomes active and all other links are working .
See f.ex.
http://www.soundoil.com
I am not getting this when viewing the site in other browsers
or on the Mac.
I use Golive CS and Flash MX.
It looks like this is an IE issue. Do you know of a
workaround?
Thanks on beforehand

Thank you Jeckyl.
It may be over my head, but I will try it.
Can you fix my only partially loading dynamic scrolling text
as well?
ggaarde|||
Hi Jeckyl and who ever can help
I tried to follow directions described on your link
http://activecontent.blogspot.com
My page is called
http://www.soundoil.com/indexjava.html
Please check my source code in IE
As you see it did not eliminate the border in IE
I uploaded the Java file eiupdate.js to the root folder of
the site (same level as the indexjava.html file.
The js file was not created in the script editor as it places
the code directly in the source for the page. I used the simple
text editor in Golive to create it.
What did I do wrong?
Thanks on beforehand.
ggaarde|||
> What did I do wrong?
You forgot to use your brain.
You directly put
<script
type=”text/javascript”>startIeFix();</script>
<object …
etc etc
</object>
<!– –><script
type=”text/javascript”>endIeFix();</script>
into your file AS IS !!! followed by your existing
<object> tags
… with a little bit common sense you would realise that
where it says
<object …
etc etc
</object>
is where your existing object tags go.
That is .. you put
<script
type=”text/javascript”>startIeFix();</script>
before your existing object tags
and
<!– –><script
type=”text/javascript”>endIeFix();</script>
after them.

I’ve noticed, not just in this thread but all the other “10
billion threads about this,” that every single one of the fixes for
this problem are oriented towards webpage developers — not for the
internet user. Forgive me if these forums (unbeknownst to me) are
actually dedicated solely to web developers, but I’d still like to
find a solution somewhere for this problem.
An example of the problem I’m facing. The average Joe (such
as myself) is browsing around webpages (including, for example, the
webpage for my online homework) that haven’t implemented a fix for
this problem …. Thus, for every ActiveX control, forcing me to
click it first before being able to use it. Just seeing this once
isn’t a big deal, but when it comes down to doing a slew of
frustrating homework problems, and being forced to do an extra
click at least once for every single problem … that just becomes
one extra irritant. And it’s a problem on a lot of other webpages
too.
I obviously can’t use the “fixes” provided in these topics,
because they’re
coding fixes; I can’t very well go in and alter commercial
webpages. Of course, I could go and demand the Tech Support guys
for
every webpage I visit to adjust their websites and make
accomodations for this problem. But that seems like a dumb choice,
especially if there’s a solution of some sort. Maybe a downloadable
update, or an option in Internet Explorer’s settings. Is there
anything out there for the
user to fix this problem? Or am I SOL? Perhaps I just need
to “suck it up.”
Thanks in advance.|||
Fix for web users: view sites using Firefox.
That’s it.|||
Not really a solution for the person designing the web page
so that the vast
majority of people who use IE can view it without having to
click.
Especially when a solution is not very difficult .. a common
javascript file
and a couple of lines of html tags.

right – but Nickel55 was replying to zerstoerer who was
asking how to avoid the active content issue
as a non-developer
I can’t think of any other way other than to not use IE and
choose FF instead.

Not according the the threading .. it says he was replying to
the original
poster (just as it shows you replying to me)
Anyawy .. my response still stands that for web developers
(ie like the OP
here), that’s not a helpful suggestion.

If clicking is REALLY that much of an annoying issue that it
makes you swap
browsers .. then that’s a solution for the web viewer.

In my FLA file I have a movieclip created by using
Insert—New

Then I import an AVI file onto the stage of that movieclip.
As a result I
have about 250 frames created in the movieclip timeline. Now

I’m using merged HTML Help. Sometimes when I recompile the
master project, RoboHelp deletes the [Merged Files] section in the
.hhp file. As a result, many things no longer work –search,
F1 help etc.
The problem seems to happen when the master RoboHelp project
is modified and then recompiled.
The master .hhc file is still good – the slave CHMs
still show up in the Table of Contents pane and can be accessed by
clicking in the TOC.
Re-adding the merged CHMs back into the TOC seems to fix the
problem. But that’s not a good solution for us to have to always do
that, since we have about 52 possible CHMs in the project.
|||
Hi hapax_legomenon and welcome to the forums. I have never
come across a problem such as yours. Can I ask the “N” question? Is
your project located on a network? If so, move it off. Have you
also tried creating a new master project, merging in your slaves
and recompiling. Does the same happen then?|||
I am working on my project locally, not across a network.
I did try recreating the project from scratch, but it the
same problem still occurs
I tried pasting the [Merge Files] from a previous .hhp into
the new .hhp, and that seems to work. But it would be nice to
figure out why RoboHelp is deleting that section in the first
place.|||
OK time for the sledgehammer approach unless anyone else has
a suggestion. Create a new project and import in each merged
project one at a time and compile before importing the next. Does
the same problem occur? If it only occurs after a certain merged
file is imported you’ve narrowed down the problem. Next you need to
identify what in the merged project is causing the problem. Adopt
the same approach by creating a new project and importing some of
the topics from the problem project. Compile and merge in the
master. If that works, add some more topics from the problem
project. Keep going until you hit the problem. Eventually you
hopefully identify the exact project/topic that is causing the
problem.|||
I think I found the problem – a bad Remote Topic link in the
master chm. I guess the compiler choked when it tried to process
it.|||
I’m having the problem where files are intermittently being
deleted from the [MERGE FILES] section of the hhp file.
By “Remote Topic” do you mean a link to an external CHM file
(one of the merged ones?)? And how did you locate it?
|||
Sorry, I think I was wrong in my post yesterday. As I dig a
little deeper in my memory now, this is what I should have said:
I have a
master .chm with only one topic,
main.htm. Other than that the master .chm is essntially
emtpy except for the links to the merged “slave” .chms, which links
can be seen in the RoboHelp TOC pane, and also are in the .hhp and
.hhc files.
While troubleshooting, I found a bad link to a remote topic
(a topic contained in one of the slave chms). It was linking to
bControl.chm::/Collections/working_with_collections.htm, but it
should have been bControl.chm::/working_with_collections.htm. I
thought this was the problem, and I fixed it.
However, (now I remember this) in working with the help
system further, it still deleted my [Merged Files] section in the
.hhp. It seems that whenever I make any changes at all to main.htm,
RoboHelp deletes the [Merged Files] section when I recompile. I
still do not know why this is happening. I have recreated my master
.chm project completely from scratch several times, but that hasn’t
solved the problem.
My solution was not to change main.htm. If I ever do need to
change it, I will make the change and then delete and then re-add
all the merged links in the master project.
|||
Hm, still doesn’t work.
Whenever I changed my master project and recompile, it nukes
my Merge section in the .hhp.|||
I have a project with 7 merged chm files. It is always the
seventh one that gets bumped off. I’ve tried reordering the chms,
but it’s always that last one.

This is exactly how I am trying to do that.
N is just an integer number. I.e. if I select, say 15 frames
in the middle
of the clip, then the last 15 frames are removed

I’ve used the Film’s Option to change its size. It Works for
the slides but not for the differents objects used (text zone,
buttons…). Any idea?|||
Hi hamilfat and welcome to our community
This seems strange. Very strange.
I was about to post back and ask if you had ensured the
option labeled
Rescale captions, highlight boxes and other objects was
selected. But I recalled that this was the default setting. So I
double checked and sure enough it is.
This would then seem to imply that you have either turned it
off, or it isn’t working. I tested here and this setting does work,
at least on my own PC it does, so I’m guessing that it’s not a
possible bug.
Did you maybe turn this setting off when you resized,
possibly not totally understanding what it does?
Cheers… Rick
