Hi all

Flash does not respond with the webbrowser control for .net 2.0.
Is there a work around to get flash working?

thanks
Sean

Hi Sean,
Thank you for posting. From your post, my understanding on this issue is:
You navigate to a web page, which contains flash, in a WebBrower control on
a Windows form. But the flash can¡¯t play normally. If I¡¯m off base,
please feel free to let me know.
To play a flash directly, you must install the corresponding flash player
such as Shockwave flash player. If the flash is embedded in a web page, you
should install the corresponding flash player add-on to play the flash in
the web page. Please check if you have installed the corresponding flash
player or add-on. To check the add-ons installed in Internet Explorer, open
the Internet Explorer and select the menu "Tools"->"Internet Options...".
In the Internet Options dialogbox, go to the "Program" tab and click the
"Manage Add-ons" button. In the Managed Add-ons dialogbox,select "Add-ons
that have been used by Internet Explorer" in the "Show" combox, and all
add-ons installed will be listed in the listbox below. If you can't find
the add-on to play the flash, it means it hasn't been installed yet. For
more information, please contact the flash producer.
Hope this is helpful to you.
Please let me know if you have any other concerns, or need anything else.



Sincerely,
Linda Liu

Hi Linda

If you have vs2005, start a new windows project.
on Form1, add a .net System.Windows.Forms.Webbrowser.
Add a button to the form.
On the button event handler, navigate the webbrowser to
http://www.helloworld.com.es
EG:
webBrowser1.Navigate(http://www.helloworld.com.es);
now on that front page there is some flash. (Color chart).
click on the colors to hear the flash sounds. you will notice flash only
plays once, and never again unless you click on the html page.

this is a problem with the .net framework 2.0 (webbrowser control
[System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser]).

I am not talking about Flash in IE or the AxWebBrowser Control.

I need a work around urgently please.
Many thank
Sean

Hi Sean,
Thank you for your reply and the detail feedback on the problem. I had a
try using Web Browser Control and encountered the same problem as you
described. But It is ok using AxWebBrowser. I have reported such problem
to MSDN Product Feedback Center. For more information, please refer to
http://support.microsoft.com.
Thanks.

Hi Linda

Yip I went down the same route as you did. I am using the AxWebBrowser now
and it works like a dream (with the flash side of things).
Thanks for your assistance on this matter.
Sean
