Active X - IE error

sticker · 13-07-2007 07:01AM #1

Hey all,

I'm building a new site - using Flash CS3, and when I test my site in IE, it's giving me the dreaded "activeX - right click and allow" bar accross the top of the browser window.

What am I doing wrong here? - has it to do with my flash movie export options? there seems to be tonnes of options - I just went with the default ones...

Saying that I added text into the flash movie also and IE 6.0.2900 doesn't show it at all - its a windows safe font (arial) but it still doesn't appear.

They may be seperate issues, but I'd like to have flash incorporated into this site and avoid the activeX allow-bar.

Thanks in advance

this usually happens when you are viewing the web page locally - I suggest uploading it to a server and seeing what happens

You're quite right, I've tried it on a few PC's, all locally - same result - although Firefox never gives me this issue.

I'll try uploading it and post back...

Would this be the case with the text in flash also?
