Bug Description

Quicktime and Flash code sources are not displayed in the slides view when viewing with Firefox. It works with Internet Explorer 6. (Tested with the current trunk versions of SilvaDLCMS and SilvaDLCMSLayout -- Does this need some CSS tweaking?)

This was very hard to debug, but I think it is solved now by adding a bit of top margin to embed tags
(fixed in dlcms trunk)

This seems to be a problem of the Firefox handling of object / embed tags. To me it looks like Firefox positions the object according to the whole html page without being able to reposition the object when the slide sections are turned on or off. For example if the second slide contains a Flash object, the objects seems to be positioned below the lower edge of the browser window (when I decrease the text size I am able to see just the top of the Flash object at the lower edge).

Jasper, do you think this can be fixed? Otherwise we will forget about this bug.
