Hi there. I have a page which has a looping animated navbar (done in flash) and it also plays a sound effect when the animation starts.

I have a link to open up a flash video (in new window) and so I'm attempting to stop animation on the navbar so as not to disturb the audio in the flash video.
(see: http://www.thecarpetedwall.com/ecj2/index2.htm)

It works perfectly in IE. But Firefox doesn't understand how to control the flash navbar using the dreamweaver default "MM_controlShockwave" function.
<a href="javascript:;" onClick="MM_controlShockwave('flashNavBar','','stop');MM_openBrWindow('flash/bobdole.html','bobDoleHTML','width=310,height=310')"><img src="images/bobdole_screenshot_smaller.jpg" width="300" height="226" border="0"></a>

So while I have it working for IE, is there anyone out there who knows how to get Firefox to recognize this function? Please? Anyone?

Thanks!

nevermind -- after some more research, i'm finding its impossible. besides.... i found a new workaround anyway.
