Re: FLASH: Mouse Down not working on mac : solution

[Fr�d�ric Pierron / Blast Interaction]

Hi,


Thanks for your reply. I have found the problem :

All the path from the home page were on the vertical menu like

"folder/file.html". It works with every combination of browser/OS except

Mac/internet Explorer 4.5. I had to rewrite all like :

"../folder/file.html". The double .. means go to the root. It seems that

IE/Flash have a chroot based from the place where the swf file is stored and

the other flashplug in/browser have a chroot where the html file is stored.

Does someone from Macromedia can confirm that ?


Yes, the horizontal row doesn't send you somewhere, it is just a roll over

to explain the name of the cheese.

If you're curious, you can go deeper in the site, there's a flash quizz, a

flash cartoon, a flash corporate presentation... Or you can wait for a

month, there're will be a english version.


Regards,


Frederic


Translation ;) :

Apparemment le probleme provenait du fait que le chemin indiqu� �tait un peu

caduque : en indiquant seulement le r�pertoire o� se trouvait le fichier �

charger (dossier/fichier.html), IE 4.5 sur Mac se perd car il prend ce

chemin � partir de l'endroit o� se trouve le fichier Flash et non pas le

fichier HTML qui h�berge le fichier Flash. Il faut donc expliciter le chemin

en faisant un chemin relatif clair (../dossier/fichier.html). Dans ce cas �a

marche pour tous les navigateurs et toutes les plateformes. Apparemment,

l'alliance IE/Mac ne fonctionne pas de la meme maniere que les autres

alliances puisque c'est la seule config qui provoquait une erreur.
