Safari (WebKit) on Windows: No focus for text input (when displaying stage swf) #114

Closed foobarlab closed 11 years ago

foobarlab commented 11 years ago

It is not possible to enter text to the chat field on Safari/Windows. This is due a bug in WebKit which prevents keyboard focus when wmode of the swf is set to transparent.

Looks like wmode set to direct gives the best possible performance boost (works since Flash version 10). See: http://labs.almerblank.com/2011/03/the-wmode-embed-parameter-de-mystified/
