SWF In Firefox Vs. IE?
Jul 14, 2009
I have a BETA site that I'm testing. It looks good/works fine in IE, but Firefox has some troublesome breakages that I can't figure out how to fix without breaking IE. The one I'm most concerned about is that I have a video player that was working a couple of weeks ago, and several revisions to the page later (not the video iframe), it's not. Works great in IE, but in Firefox, the controls in the video player are either sticky or do not work altogether. The video is called through an iframe (needs to be done that way by request) and the embed is as such:
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
</head>[code]....
I have also tried it with the following parameter, and it still didn't work in FF, but it didn't seem to affect it in IE:
so.addParam("type", "application/x-shockwave-flash");
What kind of front page revision (the page containing the iframe) might have changed this? Is it a recent FF update?

I use the code below to show the year on my sites e.g. this page.
However, instead of 2005 it shows 105 in Firefox.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
var year=time.getYear();
document.write("" + year + "");
// End -->
</SCRIPT>
Works fine in Internet Explorer.
How can I show the correct year in Firefox as well please?

First the code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
<title></title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function TextScroll(scrollname, div_name, up_name, down_name, top_name){
[Code]...
When I use mouse wheel in Firefox to scroll contents of the DIV, memory usage in Firefox goes through the roof. Code above is a fully working page, if anyone would like to see what's up, just load it up, and start moving your mouse wheel in the area with text. You don't actually have to scroll the text, just moving the wheel back and forth in that DIV will do. Memory usage will start going up quite fast, and after you stop moving the wheel, it will finally come down a bit after a short while. I've highlighted in red the line where mousewheel event is registered for Firefox. I'm not sure if it's really a problem, but since Opera and IE don't have any strange memory usage, and Firefox does, maybe I did something wrong. In everyday use it shouldn't matter [don't expect to have kilometers of content to scroll], but anyway, it is a bit unsettling.

if ((window)&&(window.netscape)&&(window.netscape.security)) {
// OK, this is Gecko/Firefox or someone mimicing it so well
// that there is no way to catch it on the act.
}
But I need Firefox *1.5 or higher* or another (but sure) way to know
that this browser has native SVG support. Here I'm stock.
It seems there is window.navigator.productSub and on my Firefox 1.5
it's 20051111
But I'm not sure: this "build version" is going up guaranteed or it's
random like CLASSID? Also is the same Firefox release has the same
build for all platforms or not? mozilla.org seems silent.

This "show-hide" works in IE7 but fails in FF2 -
Error in FF: "this.children is not a function"
<DIV id=sect style="display:block;" onclick="javascript:if
(this.children(0).style.display=='none'){this.chil dren(0).style.display='block'}else{this.children(0 ).style.display='none'}">

I'm trying to find a simple step-by-step on how to read a simple XML file
like this one, which will work in IE 6 and Firefox 0.x.

The problem is every example, I find that it will work in IE but not Firefox
or visa versa, could someone please point me to a how to that will work with
both browsers. I just spent two weeks reading the Microsoft Press Book "XML
Step by Step", only to find out that the technology only works with IE.

When I set the background colour of an element using
tdRef.style.backgroundColor and then read it back, Firefox always
gives rgb(r, g, b) regardless of whether I've used rgb(...) or #rrggbb
to set it.
If I use tdRef.bgColor to set/read the value, I always get #rrggbb
regardless of whether I've used rgb(...) or #rrggbb.
IE, on the other hand, when using style.backgroundColor reports back in
whatever format was used (either rgb(...) or #rrggbb), but, like
Firefox, always gives #rrggbb for the bgColor method.
My question is which method is most consistent across various browsers?
I want to use style.backgroundColor (since some browsers don't support
bgColor, I guess it's a legacy from the ver 4 browser days). If I
decide to use rgb(...), is it consistently supported by other browsers
or do some report in #rrggbb regardless? Code:

I have the script below, which is supposed to populate a text box
on a form which opened this popup window - it should then call a
function 'PostThisPage' on the opener document, and then close the
current window/popup.
This works ok in IE - can anyone please help me by pointing out what it
needs to become cross-browser compatible? It doesn't work in Firefox
1.0.
<script>
window.opener.document.forms(0).tbGoToDate.value = 񟭄-11-11'
window.opener.PostThisPage();
window.close();
</script>

Here is my problem in a nutshell: a script to model dynamic table
extension. It works under Firefox. But IE just aborts, complaining about
an "unknown runtime error" in the line with "innerHTML". Why?
<html><head></head><body>
<script language="javascript">
function extend() {
var tb = document.getElementById('thetable').tBodies[0];
var newrow = document.createElement('tr');
tb.insertBefore(newrow,tb.rows[tb.rows.length-1]);
tb.rows[tb.rows.length-2].innerHTML =
'<td>A</td><td>dummy</td><td>row</td>'
}
</script>
<table id="thetable">
<tr><td>1-1</td><td>1-2</td><td>1-3</td></tr>
<tr><td>2-1</td><td>2-2</td><td>2-3</td></tr>
<tr><td>3-1</td><td>3-2</td><td>3-3</td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="3"><a href="javascript:extend();">extend</a></td></tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

JavaScripties:
On the HTML side, we load an IFRAME with a blank page:
<iframe frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="off"
src="about:blank" id="iframe_xml1!format_text"
name="iframe_xml1!format_text" width="90%" height=" 180 ">Your browser is
inferior and doesn't support IFRAMEs.</iframe>
Later, a button click populates this frame:
var iframe = window.frames[iframeName];
iframe.src = outputUrl;
That works on IE but not FireFox. Any tips?

Why doesn't a SELECT element's innerHTML reflected which option was
selected? Works in IE. I need this functionality so that I can retain
what choices a user made in a tabbed interface.

var theHTML = document.getElementById('Radius').innerHTML;
//alert(theHTML);
}

But it Firefox, it barks saying:
"Error: document.getElementsByTagName("table")[table_index].rows is not a

Any ideas what this means?

I came across a third party script I want to learn how to configure as
well as learn more dhtml in the doing. I'm not much of a JS guy yet
but I'm working on it.
This script works fine in IE6 but is a dead fish in FireFox. There is
no support offered on the site where it came from.....

I have a big problem with a simple event : onchange!
If I write this page:
<html>
<body>
<form id="vu">
<input id="var01" name="var01" size="5" onchange="return false;"/>
</form>
</body>
</html>
everything is ok in IE (I can't leave the input zone !) but nothing happens in Firefox!
It looks like the event is not fired or...
Do you have any clue?

I'm kinda skeptical about a code is being used in my js program. All it
does is checking what browser is being run and finds out if FLASH is
installed or not.
This code works just fine withe IE but as far as Firefox I'm not sure.
Using the firefox I can see flash pages easily but when this code says
firefox is not installed in my firefox!

I have been browsing through the Mozzilla source and have been impressed
at the level to which javascript decends. Clearly there is a lot of
javascript that ends up embedded in the binaries and not as stand alone
ASCII scripts. Anybody know how this works?

I'm familiar with Java so I shouldn't be too lost. What I'm about to do is add support for a web app from Firefox to IE that uses OpenLayers.
I've searched and found a link to this site from another thread which had a list of supported functions and what not here: [URL]
From what I've read in the last hour it seems as though I will have to use some browser sniffing (isMozilla, isIE8, etc) and have multiple conditions (if-else's) in my functions to use the proper calls. Does anyone have extra material that contains differences between IE and firefox? Someone mentioned to me that in lists IE doesn't support trailing commas but ff does..

I got different looks in firefox and IE by using same code. I made a sign up form. If it's browsed by firefox, the elements will misplace. If using IE, not problem at all. BTW, I am using DW to make the form. Any hint?:thumbsup:
