[Flashcoders] brain teaser: filter tweening code has a problem, can you spot it?

Hi all, I downloaded a piece of filter tweening code, modified it (added loop around it) to tween mutiple clips on stage with the name (kText0, kText1, etc.) and for some reason it only tweens the last clip. After some debugging I found out where the problem lies. But when I compiled the

Brilliant. Just brilliant. Now if someone points out a problem with Flash, then is an ignorant. Who do you think you are talking about people you don't know with such an arrogance? Either the player or the browsers are having problems using wmode and that's a FACT. You don't need to remind me

I got it working by using flashvars as well as passing it in the swf file string. Unfortunately I didn't write the piece so it took some time to decifer. It seems that how IE processes the flash allows for a difference in the timing. So maybe that will help you track down yours. Testing changes

Steven, I hate web development. That's why I do Flash development. Although highly subjective, I can't agree with you enough. The points you make capture my exact reasoning! However, I would argue that Flash has a great share of its own problems, but at least you're only dealing with one

Sorry guys, it's my fault. I'm feeling completely idiot right now for asking Adobe to fix and/or improve the player. Adobe, you know what? Don't bother, we can always say that HTML is worst. Who cares about crossplatform and stuff like that. It (seems to) work on Win/IE, so that's enough.
