Flyout over Flash: Broken on Mac Firefox

Post by mfindlay »

We are using Milonic Version 5.747 on a site where the flyout extends over a flash animation.

On Mac Firefox only, the underlying animation stops and goes white until we mouse away from the menu.

We have all of the usual .js updates in place to fix the "click here to activate the control" and the milonic .js additions.

Just checking to see if this issue has perhaps been fixed in an updated version or anyone has any other advice on how to get around this problem on Mac Firefox?

You can see this Mac Firefox problem at http://www.unitus.com homepage.

Thanks!

Hi,

You need to upgrade to the newest version of the menu, 5.770 is the latest. Your license is valid still so you are entitled to upgrade. To do that you'd need to be logged in on the main site under the name used when you first got the license, then click the download menu button and it should make the version with your license info in it.

Make sure you keep the older version you have someplace as backup until you make sure there are not any issues for your site with the newest version. See if that fixes the problem with the flash.

Hi Ruth,

Thanks, but I tried that and it still fails on FireFox Mac. Is this known to be fixed on that browser and platform?

Hi,

Try adding

Code: Select all

fixMozillaZIndex=true; 
at the top area of the menu_data.js file right above the

Code: Select all

_menuCloseDelay=250;         // The time delay for menus to remain visible on mouse out
