Any of you have some link to a page that clears how local connection method is compatible with all browsers, their versions, etc?...i haven't found anything on macromedia...

Thx!

local connection takes place within the flash player and is therefore browser independant.
 
What do you say about this:

...i asked this because i made a website for a client and in this website i use a local connection between 2 movies...a menu and a movie that displays a description of the menu items...he tested it on Netscape 7.1 for Mac OS X 10.2.6 and it didn't work...

i hadnt seen that article. thanks for pointing it out.

it does seem that can localconnection can be buggy. hard to explain why there should be a browser problem when all the action takes place within the player.

clients can be picky but very few people use netscape these days. <3% i believe. so if they are going to insist on this working on this platform then it looks like another method must be employed unless someone knows of a workaround. i dont.
 
Maybe someone knows some way to fix this buggy :)

final thoughts


you were using the most uptodate version of the player.

while testing only one browser was open.
 
I haven't asked him this...didn't cross my mind...but i am pretty sure he was using the last version of the player ... and maybe more browser windows :)...can this be a bug maker?

local connection fails if more than one browser open....was in that article you pointed out.
 
Those were different sittuation...some guys were telling that the LC is not working in one configuration(Win, browser) and others...with the same configuration were telling that the LC was working...so it's a bit of an X-file with the LC :-(
