If you are publishing for ActionScript 2, LoadMovie is indeed not a function. It's case sensitive:

Hi, I've just had a look at Adobe's fix for the IE active X changes...the one that changes the publish settings in flash and uses AC_RunActiveContent.js (http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=7c29e252) I know that the fix isn't needed for firefox et al, but I'm not about to go back to the old detecting browsers stuff - I figured the fix would place the flash movie in the page whichever browser is used (it says as much...) So - I just grabbed a movie and tried the fix - it works fine in that it displays the movie in IE & FF. However, in firefox, any javascript to flash communication is now dead. Can someone have a quick go and see if I'm just being dumb?? Bascially I just have a movie, and a link in the html that calls a js function: function foo(){ var movie = window.document.movie_name; movie.LoadMovie(1, "loadMe.swf"); } So that should load 'loadMe.swf' into the movie. But instead I get the error: movie.LoadMovie is not a function It works fine before applying the active X fix, but once the fix is applied - it's dead. In IE it works both before and after. Same for any other flash methods (GetVariable, SetVariable etc.) Is there something I'm missing?? Thanks. C. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
