Hi,

When I use a flash movie on an HTML page it all looks good in Mozilla Firefox.
In IE on the other hand, it sucks, because when you move your move over the
flash movie you see a white boundaty box. Which makes it all look very silly.
How do I get rid of that?

Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to give me.

uh oh - here we go again - duck and cover!!!!!
If i had a nickel everytime this was asked in the past few months i would have....let's see - go here:
http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search?q=group:*flash*&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-
8&oe=UTF-8

(the google archive of the forum)
and search for "active content".
A total of 362 (and rising everyday) returns.
Multiply that by $.5
I think I would end up with $181. (is my math correct?)

Anyway you get the point. Search the forums first - it was just asked and answered at least twice
just yesterday. It unfortunately will be asked again today a couple more times, and then tomorrow
and the next day and....
Most of us are simply too tired to even respond to this anymore but we understand that searching for
the right terminology is often hard to discern.
But here's the url that has been posted here a couple hundred times already - guess it can't hurt to
paste it again :)

http://activecontent.blogspot.com

If you search google for "active content" you will realize just how popular this little bit of tech
news was/has been over the last 6 months - been all over blogs and news sites for a while.

There are methods to combat this on this site (yes, adobe.com) and all you have to do is search
adobe to find:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/activecontent/
An entire section devoted to this issue.

When you hover over any active content in IE you will see this:

See the little tool tip instructing you what to do? If you google that ("Click to activate and use
this control" or similar), you will find 2,050,000 returns (wow)

no your math is not correct you left off the 0 at the end - $1,810

Ok if I reading this right  i think that you might be talking about the really
gay transition from IE 6 to 7 were it makes all of the flash objects on a html
page have the ?click to activate this control? or ?press the space button to
activate?. Well there is a  Java fix for it on the site
http://www.amarasoftware.com/flash-problem.htm maybe its not what your looking
for but it was one hell of a problem for me.

in your html try type following: <body height="0" width="0" margin="0"
Chris Georgenes - 30 Nov 2006 16:16 GMT
?
that diesn't solve the IE/MS/Active Content issue - we all wish it was that easy :p
All that does is remove the gutter.
