Hi everybody,  
I’m working on my first small Flash project, though I’ve been editing html and programming for quite a long time.  
I’m facing a rather odd behavior that occurs only when displaying the .swf in a web browser.

I have some polaroid dropped on a surface with different rotation (to look natural) that when selected are flipped and zoomed as picking them up; when losing focus they return on the background in their original position.

When i play the movie in the flash player, cards behave as expected, when displayed in a browser, they returns to the correct x,y position but with what appears to be 0 rotation.

Hope that you can see the reason of the problem as I don’t see how the same .swf look different in the same computer with same up-to-date player and only in one animation direction.

You can see the animation at [www.dueottobre2010.com and download the linked movie http://www.dueottobre2010.com/dueottobre2010.swf](http://www.dueottobre2010.com/) to test it locally.

Thank you for helping!
