header flash animation doesn't play in Firefox

    I’m sure this is an OLD story – used Kimili to create tags, put them in my header.php file for the 2010 theme. Header animation works great in IE and in Safari, no go in Firefox. Not even a blank white box, just no load at all.

    Firefox plays Flash animations from other, HTML-based websites without any problems.

    I see several previous posts similar to this and have tried several of the suggestions in them but none appear to have a definitive fix for this issue.

    Am I doing something wrong or is there some special voodoo to know about getting WP, Flash and FireFox to play nice?

    Thanks. All help is greatly appreciated!

    OK I guess I’m not as clueless as I thought. I figured this out for myself. Essentially the size parameters in Kimili allow you to express the .swf size as percentages – if you select that your Flash file WILL NOT PLAY in Firefox as apparently Mozilla doesn’t support that. Will work both ways in IE and Safari, no go in FireFox. Thanks anyway guys and I’ll leave this post here in case someone else needs to know this sometime.
