Hello,

I have an interesting (and rather embarrasing) error occuring only in Firefox on [http://www.northwestu.edu/report/06/](http://www.northwestu.edu/report/06/).

If you watch the presentation in Explorer, this is the proper chain of events:

1. [http://www.northwestu.edu/report/06/index.php](http://www.northwestu.edu/report/06/index.php) loads index.swf.
2. On frame 291, index.swf executes in a separate “Actions” layer:

stop();  
getURL([http://www.northwestu.edu/report/06/president.php](http://www.northwestu.edu/report/06/president.php));

1. [http://www.northwestu.edu/report/06/president.php](http://www.northwestu.edu/report/06/president.php) loads president.swf

The problem is that in step 3., Firefox doesn’t load president.swf, instead it uses index.swf and keeps looping it.

I oversee this site and unfortunately we did not find this bug until after linking up this content to our home page. Any help or ideas would be _much_ appreciated.
