Flash and Closing Browser Delays

have to click twice to close the browser on our pages

This is odd - We design in flash and every site seems to stick when it comes to closing the browser window. At times, i only have to click once on the "X" close button.. but most of the time i have to click twice. what could be causing this?

appreciate any input. i'd like to fix this.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld lisaevenson,

Does it happen in netscape, ie, and opera? Are you using FScommand or javascript link to close the browser?

[lisaevenson]

thanks.. i just use the "x" button in ie .. ya know close window. and i have to usually click it twice to close it. im thinking we're doing the flash programming wrong or something. if it looks good on other os's and browsers, then im all good.

Are these large Flash movies? Does it do it on more than one computer and if so do they have the same amount of ram. Sounds like the files are large and it is using up ram.

Sticky me with the URL and I will have a look.
