Hi,

Is this old Flash Scroll bug still not fixed ?? https://support.mozilla.org/fr/questions/932973 https://support.mozilla.org/fr/questions/942285?esab=a&s=&r=1&as=s

To experience the bug, go on this page : http://www.france24.com/fr/ameriques/ Click on one of the page with video. Start the video (pass the ad that is not in flash). Come back to the video list page with the back page button You shouldn't be able to scroll until you click on something out of the page.

Tested with a new virgin profile.

If the plugin has focus then you won't be able to scroll the page and you would have to click the mouse elsewhere to remove the focus from the plugin.

Thanks cor-el for the explanation.

I made some search on the flash focus bug and I found this page, this page and this page that seem to announce the bug was over.

So I don't understand why I still have the issue. The weird thing is that I'm loosing the scroll only if I go back to the previous page. Withing the page where flash is running, I still have the scroll.

In Chrome everything is working fine.
