Hi

I have tried to implement the ‘Kirupa Fixing the Flash/Embed Issue’ and it works brilliantly in IE but I just checked out my site in Firefox and it is no not working. By the way i am using Flash MX.

Can someone please help?

Many thanks

Could the issue be the my flash movie is 100% width and 100% height?

Does anyone know if Firefox has an issue with 100% div tags?

Here is example [http://www.eyekiller.com/flash\_test.htm](http://www.eyekiller.com/flash_test.htm)

Looks fine to me, make sure you have Javascript enabled in Firefox. You can check by going to your Tools \> Options… \> Content page and making sure the “Enable Javascript” box is checked.

Or just check for IE and if it is then do it if it isn’t then run the normal method.
