IE - Running Scripts From your Hard Drive Warning!
If you have SP2 installed, by default, IE will show a warning message and attempt to block QuickMenu from
running until you allow active content from your hard drive. This warning and block does not occur online,
it is a local IE security precaution only.
Despite the warning, OpenCube software will not access your system, this is simply an IE precaution.
Firefox, Safari, and Netscape by default, trust local content, and QuickMenu will run from your hard drive in these browsers.
To allow active content in IE you can....
A: Temporarily enable the software by clicking the yellow security warning bar, and selecting
"Allow Blocked Content".
B: Permanently enable active content locally...
1: Select 'Tools' --> 'Internet Options' from the IE menu.
2: Click the 'Advanced' tab.
3: Check the 2nd option under 'Security' in the tree (Allow active content to run in files on my computer.)
---Menus and Flash Objects---
Overview-
Flash objects are programmed to take up all of the available real estate in a page at
the point where they are inserted. This means that dynamic content, such as all drop
down menus will have their sub menus covered when they attempt to load over a Flash
object. Unfortunately, due to the way that Flash renders in the individual browsers
there is nothing that can be done with the menu code to resolve this problem. However,
Flash does have parameters and embed codes that can be added to the Flash object to
allow for dynamic content, such as menus to display on top of the Flash object.
The wmode Parameter-
In order for your dynamic content to display over your Flash objects you will need to
add the wmode parameter to your Flash object:
You Flash object will likely have other parameters in use, and you can simply add this
one to the existing list. The last step is to add the wmode to your Flash object's embed
tag. The embed tag is typically the last tag used for calling your Flash object. An example
tag is located below:
