flash button loses rollover when mouse wheel scrolling

When I scroll down (using mouse wheel) to the very bottom of the page in Firefox 3.6, in my embedded flash all the button hit areas go out of sync with where they now appear on the page and the mouse rollover / click no longer works correctly within the flash. This is not an issue on any other browser. The height of the embedded flash is 1170px, hence the need for vertical scrollbar Only happens when scrolling down with the mouse wheel.

Did you check if it still happens in Safe mode ?

Does it help if you place the mouse pointer in the scroll bar at the right or at least outside the Flash object?

Hi,

Yes it does still happen in safe mode. The size of the Firefox window seems to affect the point at which the flash buttons move out of sync. If I use the mouse to scroll to the bottom of the page using the scroll bar it happens less than if I mousewheel scroll, but still happens occasionally.

Thanks, Adam
