I have been playing around with the new 2.4. I like the new features that it has. However I have noticed that the flash header doesn't like FireFox that well. I would also like to see if we can add more than just the "Home", "Menu Item", and "About Us" on the menu bar. Other than that, I like what I see so far.

Yeah, it seems that the flash animation function seems to not work 100% of the time in firefox... also if there is another flash animation on your blog (wordpress in this example) the flash in the header won't work.

Indeed, same problem with the Flash header and Firefox on a 2.4 Joomla template. Flash header does not work. Also tested with IE8, is working fine there.

Claude is correct. I had Fire Fox 3.5.7 installed and the Flash Header did not work. I upgraded to v3.6 and it works. Check my site <a href="www.SitesInOneDay.com">www.SitesInOneDay.com </a>

Hi! When I design new sites with new tools, I always try to make the site more compatible with all browsers, because not all the persons have or like update your computer, then I need to make compatible the flash header with firefox 3.5.7, I do as follow with my Joomla template:
1.- Download the last swfobject.js version 2.2 from here: http://swfobject.googlecode.com/files/swfobject_2_2.zip
2.- Replace it the swfobject.js in the root directory from the template you create with Artisteer
3.- Make a copy of the index.php file in the root directory from the template, just in case you need to start again
4.- Locate the follow code inside the index.php file from the root directory from the template
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="900" height="225" id="art-flash-object">
<param name="movie" value="<?php echo $templateUrl; ?>/images/flash.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="scale" value="exactfit" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="flashvars" value="color1=0xFFFFFF&alpha1=.50&framerate1=24" />
<param name="swfliveconnect" value="true" />
<!--[if !IE]>-->
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="<?php echo $templateUrl; ?>/images/flash.swf" width="900" height="225">
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="scale" value="exactfit" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="flashvars" value="color1=0xFFFFFF&alpha1=.50&framerate1=24" />
<param name="swfliveconnect" value="true" />
<!--<![endif]-->
<div class="art-flash-alt"><a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"><img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player" /></a></div>
<!--[if !IE]>-->
</object>
<!--<![endif]-->
</object>
</div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">swfobject.registerObject("art-flash-object", "9.0.0", "<?php echo $templateUrl; ?>/expressInstall.swf");</script>
</div>
5.- Replace with the follow code:
<div id="HeaderObjectFlash">
<a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"><img src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif" alt="Get Adobe Flash player" /></a>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var flashvars = {};
var params = {};
params.play = "true";
params.loop = "true";
params.menu = "false";
params.quality = "high";
params.scale = "noscale";
params.wmode = "transparent";
params.bgcolor = "#FFFFFF";
params.devicefont = "true";
params.seamlesstabbing = "false";
params.swliveconnect = "false";
params.allowfullscreen = "false";
params.allowscriptaccess = "sameDomain";
params.allownetworking = "all";
var attributes = {};
attributes.align = "middle";
swfobject.embedSWF("<?php echo $templateUrl; ?>/images/flash.swf", "HeaderObjectFlash", "900", "225", "8.0.35", "expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);
</script>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Remember you can change the params attributes in any way you need.
Now is ready save it and test it with Firefox 5.3.7
