Movie Clip disappears on refresh in Internet Explorer

Unicron

Hi everyone. I have a group of developers here and none of us can explain this problem. It seems a theoretical impossibility, but it's happening anyway.

I have a flash presentation im working on for my company. You can see it and its problem here-

http://portfolio.yourc areerinfo.com/importfolio.php

The back button clip in the corner goes back to the site that brought them here.
It always works for my at my desk, in every browser.

However- At everyone else's machine, in any version of IE, the back button disappears after the file is cached (after visiting one time). So if they hit refresh in IE, the button is gone. If I delete the cached version from temp folder, the button is back. (I also viewed the cached file with flash player and IE, and the button is still there).

It makes no sense. We all have the same IE version and the same Flash player version. The button is attached the same way as every other element. It seems impossible... like going to see Titanic and the ship never sinks. It should always happen exactly the same.

Heres the simple AS for the button, just like all the other clips:

attachMovie("ba ck","back",100) ;
back._x = Stage.width;
back._y = 0;
back.onPress = function() {
getURL("someurl here");
}


That's it, nothing complicated. Yet it disappears if it is cached...

Hi, I inherited a Flash usability problem: It's a self assessment test created in Flash. I think it was originally built using individual flash files for each question and arrays. Now it has been modified slightly. Each question is in it's own movie clip and the whole test (all the questions) is in a container clip. When the user checks a box they can no longer scroll using the MouseWheel on a PC.

Greetings, I have workable code to allow movie clips to be dragged around. However I can't find an example of a drag n drop where the movie clip has to be placed with a certain range/xy cordinates on a movie clip. For example I have a .gif of a grid of 2x2 squares how do I setup different instances of movie clips for each square to be able to detect when a object and has been dropped into it (A bit like when you can define hit areas on...

I have an image with a class and the class defines a clip rectangle. In Firefox 2 and 3, and Opera 9, I can access the rectangle with document.defaultView.getComputedStyle(). But that doesn't seem to work in Safari for Windows 3, nor when I use image.currentStyle.clip in IE 7. Is there a way to do this in those browsers? Am I doing something stupid?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
