Flash Issue

Post by Brrserker »

I went to my guild site current on wowstead.com and went to look at a new post in which there was a YouTube video as well as some text.

I can see the video but not text when YouTube is Allowed.

I can see the text but not the Video when YouTube is not allowed.

I'm using Firefox 5, I have no issues watching videos and seeing everything ON YouTube and ON my guild site except in the post that has an embedded YouTube video.

What might be causing this issue?

The page also loads fine if I completely disable Shockwave Flash, essentially the same thing as Forbidding YouTube.

This may not have anything to do with the op here, but thought I would post if others write of current or new youtube/flash issues.

Youtube wouldn't play videos for me yesterday and as I searched for why, I found others with the same problem. Some said they cleared all their cookies, etc, some say they switched browsers and then youtube would work. Some said put an 's' affer http. That works for me. So, it's not a noscript issue.

Indeed I read somewhere from a Google source that they are in the process of making major changes to Youtube like allowing it to be embedded in HTTPS (to prevent the mixed HTTPS/HTTP content) and improving the HTML5 player.

Ya, everything is enabled hat should be.

Still when I Forbid YouTube the text on the page displays and the noscript box appears over the youtube frame.
Once I allow Youtube the video appears but all the text and the forum replies as well are gone.


If I forbid wowstead instead of youtube everything loads except the video and the entire page is blacked out.

Here's some screencaps:

I may be off the mark here, if so I apologize, but looking at the screenshot it seems that you are trying to embed the video in a post, could it be that the forum has made a change that is affecting this function, not NoScript? I know alot of forums and blogs that do some weird post processing of the video content and end up with weird iframe issues. This might be one of those.

Someone else posted it, and it all works, just not in unison. I have to disable 1 to allow the rest of the page to load or disable the other to allow the video to load.

I do not believe wowstead has made any changes to embedding either though I guess they could have.
