Description Warren Togami 2006-09-24 00:59:23 EDT

http://www.adobe.com/
When I mouse-over the menus like "Solutions" at the top of the page, the menu
goes under the banner instead of on-top, making it impossible to see or select
the hidden options. 

This is another test case for Adobe Flash Player 9.

firefox-1.5.0.7-3.fc6
flash-plugin-7.0.68-1

I'm not sure this is flash-plugin bug. Konqueror displays menus properly. Seems
more like firefox bug to me.

Comment 5 Warren Togami 2006-11-12 00:17:26 EST

Hmm, I recall this being a problem in Windows too.  So perhaps Adobe needs to
decide how they will attempt to fix this problem.

Comment 6 The Source 2006-11-12 02:59:56 EST

Nope. In Windows everything is displayed properly. I use latest versions of
firefox in Windows and in Fedora Core 6. The bug present only Fedora firefox.

Comment 7 Warren Togami 2006-12-12 18:01:49 EST

This requires "WMODE" support being implemented in Firefox 3 and a future
release of Adobe Flash Player.

Comment 8 The Source 2006-12-21 09:32:21 EST

Still present in firefox 1.5.0.9-1.fc6

Comment 9 The Source 2008-10-25 07:35:36 EDT

It is flash player bug, not firefox. Fixed in flash player 10, so this bug can be closed I think.

Comment 10 Warren Togami 2008-10-25 09:00:28 EDT

Daniel,

This is fixed with the combination of Firefox 3 and Flash 10 (with newer versions of nspluginwrapper than currently in RHEL5).  But unfortunately Flash 10 is incompatible with RHEL4, which will remain forever at Flash 9.  So this bug will be impossible to fix for RHEL4.  RHEL5 works if you remove nspluginwrapper on i386, or upgrade to the latest upstream nspluginwrapper.

Closing CANTFIX.
