Re: FLASH: layer invisible flash prob

[Jason_Schubring]

>>."I have a flash movie inside an invisible layer.

This flash movie has a calling of a jscript function

(geturl=javascript:anyfunction())

The thing is that in NN it executes perfectly, but in Explorer it

doesn't because the layer is set invisible, if I set the layer visible,

it executes perfectly.

How can I solve this?"



Hey Lucas.


The problem is that only one of the browsers knows what you are telling it.

"Visible" and "invisible" are not ok for both NS and IE.


Feel free to use the following style sheet and javascript code to swap the

styles.  Just give your layer the CSS style of "thing."  Replace the object

"lucas"  in the JS with the name of your layer.


Hope this answers your question!

<STYLE TYPE="text/css">


.thing {

visibility: hidden;

}

</style>



<SCRIPT LANGUAGE = "JavaScript">


<!--/* check and fix layer bug */

if (document.layers){

     var lucas = document.lucas;

     var HIDDEN = 'hide';

     var VISIBLE = 'show';

} else if (document.all){

     var lucas = document.all.lucas.style;

     var HIDDEN = 'hidden';

     var VISIBLE = 'visible';

}


function showIt(object) {

        object.visibility = VISIBLE;

}


function hideIt(object) {

        object.visibility = HIDDEN;

}

//stop hiding -->

</SCRIPT>
