    Drag Bar Doesn't work in Mozilla, wft?

    I created a drag bar for the site in progress at:
    http://www.tlrsystems.com/beta/

    If you click on the "services" link, you will notice that when you use the scrollbar on the right side using Mozilla Firefox/Firebird, it doesn't let you scroll. But if you use the site in Internet Explorer the scrollbar works fine.

    I was just curious as to if there was a fix for this or not. It seems as if the browswer is trying to drag the image out of the movie, yet it can't.

    Any help appreciated.

    I'm having a very similar problem with Mozilla acting like a baby...my code is simple.

    on (press) {
    startDrag("_root.Display.DragClip.Menu");
    }
    on (release) {
    stopDrag();
    }

    works like a charm in IE...mozilla wont work for ****.

    if anyone can help I can send the link to the project, but I'm under NDA and dont want any post I do to get copied all over the place.

    I still haven't figured this out...

    even my flash web sites work more efficiently, even besides the dragbar, in IE.

    I would really like an answer to this.

    try this page out in mozilla vs IE:
    http://www.tlrsystems.com/beta/

    It's because the wmode is set to transparent. All gecko browsers have a problem with holding down the mouse button and dragging it across the stage - when wmode is set to transparent.
