I uploaded a flash header to my website, and when i tried to look at it in IE, i does not show all the text in the flash element, but if you try to see it in Firefox, you can see it fine... you can visit this test page (http://ministeriojireh.com/web/contacto.php) i uploaded so you can see the problem. Please help me with this...Thank you

hmm your flash is showing just fine on my computer (and i use ie only)
is the problem maybe coming from your css file??
i tried to look at it (css/main_style.css) but there's no #flashheader or #flashcontent
I dont know for sure uh...just try to put
#flashheader
height: "size of your flash" px;
width: "size of your flash" px;

it's an idea like any other >.>
or maybe give screenshot of what it looks like, it would be helpfull =3

As Psychosnake says, if you can provide a screenshot that might be best.

I just tested in Fx, IE7, IE6, Safari and Opera and all of them show the same exact thing. So either your problem is with the Flash and what you want to show isn't showing in any of them or perhaps it has something to do with your own computer.

Have you been able to confirm this bug on other computers? Or maybe you've just fixed it now. The topic title does say "flash now showing properly". I'm not sure if that's a typo or an update.

Anyway, post a screenshot of what you're seeing.

And this is how i see it in Firefox and how its supposed to be...

You know, for some reason i can't see the text when i look at it in Internet Explorer, i tried looking at it locally and i still get the same problem both on the server and locally.
(Thanks for your replies guys, appreciate your help)

Hi Remp...

I would try reinstalling the Flash Player for IE on your computer. It seems like that could be your problem. Perhaps your Flash player is out of date?

As I said, I tested your site in IE6, IE6, Fx2, Safari, Opera on PC and today I even tested it on my (new) Mac -- Safari, IE, & Fx. They all look like that Fx screenshot you posted :D

So, if there is a problem, I can't see any. Makes me think it's your computer.

Well to fix the problem, we would need to know what it is. A couple of things that might cause/clarify a problem (though I still think it probably has something to do with your computer).

1. Is the text dynamic or static?
2. Are the fonts embedded properly?
3. Have you tried renaming the movie, clearning your cache, and seeing if it works?
4. Are you able to replicate the issue on any other computer?
5. Make sure you did all of these steps (http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_15511#fixall) to uninstall/reintally Flash Player.

Try the link I posted in my post above on how to properly uninstall and then reinstall Flash Player.

If that doesn't work, we can try some other stuff.
