I face problem while running flash selenium for Firefox browser. I load flash 
movie 
and use call method with function name as paramater. But FlashSelenium throws 
the 
exception saying Object dont have properties.

I am not sure but may be when using firefox flash movie can be accessed using 
ExternalInterface API.

Sachin Sachin is looking in this issue.
It seems to be a new issue as flash-selenium was working fine for Firefox and 
IE in
the beginning of 2008.

Hello FlashSelenium Team,

I used Firefox 2.0.0.16 and Flash Selenium from SVN respository revison 22 and 
when 
I call methods which are exposed to ExternalInterface (using addCallback 
method)all 
the time I get exception message "Flash Movie do not have properties". The same 
exception is not seen in IE 7. Even the native methods like PercentLoaded(), 
IsPlaying() throws the same exception for Firfox.

Eagerly waiting for this issue to fix. Thank you for the great work..

Best Regards !

/ Yogesh

The Java and .NET Client has been fixed. Now it supports both Firefox 2 and 
Firefox 
3.

Hello FlashSelenium Team,

  I am using the latest FlashSelenium.dll (revision 25 build) and i am trying to 
click on a "flashobject" of our project. Still i am seeing "flashobjectid do 
not 
have properties" error on firefox3 and firefox2.I just included the new dll in 
my 
project. Do i need to do any thing more to overcome this issue?

Hey Karthik,

Have you externalized the action associated with the click? Just to be sure, 
does the
same work when IE is used by Selenium?

It's not working in IE too, I am getting 
A first chance exception of type 'Selenium.SeleniumException' occurred in
ThoughtWorks.Selenium.Core.dll
'flashApp.Call("clickHandler")' threw an exception of type 
'Selenium.SeleniumException'
    base {System.Exception}: {"ERROR: Threw an exception:
'window.document.flashObjectId' is null or not an object"}

I have externalized the action using ExternalInterface.call method

I am using r25 flashselenium.dll  and it fixed the problem of firefox. I can 
call 
externalized function of flash movies.. But now it stopped working with IE7... 
flashApp.PercentLoaded() works in IE7 but 
flashApp.Call("functionname","Paramater") 
do not work in IE7.

In FF3, flashApp.PercentLoaded()  and flashApp.Call("functionname","Paramater") 

both works fine.

Any plans to fix for IE7? flashApp.Call("functionname","Paramater") is not 
working 
with R25 .NET client.

Hey,

I'm currently looking into the issue. I use IE8 (RC1) but let me see if I can
reproduce the same on this browser.

Hello FlashSelenium Team,

My question seems very....but i'm really find no way to solve it.


I'm using r25 FlashSelenium.dll to try to test the flash movie on the 
page:http://www.geocities.com/paulocaroli/flash/colors.html

But it always stoped at the very beginning: 
flashApp = new FlashSelenium.FlashSelenium(selenium, "clickcolors");

and the exception message is:
Selenium.SeleniumException: ERROR: Threw an exception: 
window.document.clickcolors 
is undefined.

Hi,
I also have problems getting FlashSelenium to work with this 'clickcolors' 
sample.
With FF3 it stops at the flashApp.PercentLoaded() line and shows error:
'document.clickcolors has no properties'.
When I try it with IE7 it passes that, also works with getColor, but doesn't 
make the
click on the box.

I think the problem is about the embed tag and the object tag. You guys should 
try to
change the id from the object tag and use the embed's tag... It works 
differently on
each browser (that explains why it doesn't work on FF3 and works a little on 
IE7)...

Hi,
I have the same problem. I use FF3.5.3. Whenever I want to call:

FlashSelenium flashApp = new FlashSelenium(seleniumBrowser, "NavTabs");
flashApp.PercentLoaded();

the error is:

com.thoughtworks.selenium.SeleniumException: ERROR: Threw an exception:
this.browserbot.findElement("NavTabs").PercentLoaded is not a function

Any help is appreciated.

I got rid of "this.browserbot.findElement("")" error by adding 
Thread.sleep(1000) 
before calling the method. However now I get this 
error "com.thoughtworks.selenium.SeleniumException: ERROR: Threw an exception: 
NPMethod called on non-NPObject wrapped JSObject!" on Firefox 3.0 and above and 
don't know what the solution is.
