Title:
Firefox 5.0 shockwave plugin causes missing and non functional file
browsing
Status in Mozilla Firefox:
Incomplete
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When any web feature asks to browse to a file location and the file
navigation window comes up, it is only white page with black text.
Example:
You want to attach a file in webmail aka yahoo.com (select
compose/attach/browse) the window comes up but only white text with black
backround and the navigation does not work and what should be the OK button
makes the window crash.
No buttons,button borders, no colors, and no highlighting of selected
files.
Same bug for all add files features when initiated from the firefox browser:
Ebay add images
Facebook add images
Ubuntu forums add images
NOW ! after lots of playing around I found that if I disable the
shockwave plugin in firefox 5.0 then the file navigation features are
back to normal and function as they should. But what to do with
shockwave ?
Please advise
Thanks
