Bug Description

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

I have a SWF that is more or less a text editor. As you type inside it, it sometime calls a javascript function to resize the flash object. As soon as the flash object resizes, it loses the focus. This is bad since the user is still typing when this happens.

I found reports that flash loses the focus randomly while playing games. In my case it's very repeatable. This does not happen in FF or IE on Windows or Mac. So far, just in Ubunto.

Does anyone know anything about this or how I can possible work around it?

I am using Ubuntu 9.10 - the Karmic Koala

with Firefox 3.5.5

with Flash Player 10,0,32,18

Thank you for your bug report! Can you reproduce this with supported Ubuntu versions because Ubuntu 9.10 is EOL.
