I hasten to add I’m pretty sure it isn’t an issue with Firefox, but I’m not entirely sure. As I’m developing Flash content, I constantly preview the content using Firefox, but the .html displaying the .swf and the .swf directly. It never used to happen, but since being automatically updated to the latest version of Firefox (1.5.0.5) the browser seems to crash from time to time.
I cannot really identify specifically when, but it seems to be when I’m running multiple instances of Flash across about 10 different tabs. I don’t think it is my Flash programming as I’m not getting any Flash error messages (including the dreaded - “… do you want to abort this script”). What seems to happen is that Firefox just hangs.
I’m mortified! Has anyone else experienced anything like this? I’m going to reinstall Firefox and the Flash player to give it a try, but I’m concerned….
