Flash WebSocket initialization fails when trying to load dynamically after page has loaded. #3

I've been trying to get this working with Safari (4.0.4, Snow Leopard), with no success. This is from both a file:/// URI and when hosted on a web server. Works perfectly so far with IE and Firefox however...

Hmm it works fine with my Safari 4.0.4 on WinXP. I don't have Mac so I cannot debug it further myself... A few questions:

When it fails? Isn't even "onopen" shown?
Is Flash Player installed properly in your Safari? What's version of Flash?
Could you follow "How to debug" section in README.txt and let me know what's shown in JavaScript console (and Flash errors?)
You can insert console.log to web_socket.js and something equivalent to Flash code to identify which part works properly and which part doesn't.

Ok, so after some investigation, I realized that WebSocket.__initialize() was not being called, due to the fact that I was loading "web_socket.js" after the "onload" event had already fired, and thus

window.addEventListener("load", WebSocket.__initialize, false);

wasn't doing the trick. I ended up calling it manually and it worked fine in Safari.

I see. So do you use some technique to load web_socket.js dynamically, not with static script tag? I'll try to find way to make it work properly in that case too. Thanks.

Precisely, I wasn't using your sample.html, I was using my own test file that was appending the needed Githubissues.

Githubissues is a development platform for aggregating issues.
