Hi, I have a page with a flash component and I found the problem with the latest versions of Firefox. When I click on the flash, the selected text of the page loses focus.

The web is http://www.portalvoz.com and with other browsers work properly.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Yes, I can confirm that it doesn't work in Firefox 3.6.10 and the current Minefield 4.0 nightly build.

It does work in Firefox 3.5.13, so either something regressed or there is n other problem with that script.

You can try to ask the mozillaZine Web Development/Standards Evangelism forum to see if somebody there knows what is happening.

You need to register at the mozillaZine forum site in order to post at that forum.

Hi cor-el, I do not find any solution in Web Development/Standards Evangelism and I do not know if it is a bug or is possible to change this behaviour.

Do you know who can help me?

Thanks

When you select text and then click somewhere on the webpage, it is supposed to lose the mark of the selected text.
