gnash shows Flora brasiliensis web presentation incorrectly in epiphany and firefox

[Ulf Mehlig]

Binary package hint: mozilla-plugin-gnash

The site http://florabrasiliensis.cria.org.br provides a digitalized version of the volumes of the "Flora brasiliensis" (historical scientific work about plants from Brazil) by means of an embedded flash application (http://florabrasiliensis.cria.org.br/zoomifyViewer_v3.swf) freely accessible via WWW, e.g.

http://florabrasiliensis.cria.org.br/search?taxon_id=3032

Click on the small "leaf" or "text" icon to the right of the plant name; now, a maximized window opens that shows the respective page(s) of the book. Unfortunately, gnash displays the main page image on the center pane of the window only at a very small size on my 1400×1050 pixel display, not using all available space; with the Adobe Flash plugin (on i386), the pages of the book are scaled to the height of the window. The "slide show" feature doesn't work, either.
