I'm accessing a private music tutorial site on which i'm watching Flowplayer videos - it's a learning site, showing short video tutorials - when i first accessed the site on Firefox, all was fine - however, every subsequent visit, the video is just a blank black screen and can't be accessed - I can access the site without problems through Safari

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

This is what worked for me.

Firefox seems sensitive to the format of the style attribute in the <a> tag that specifies the video.

This does NOT work style="display:block;width:250 px;height:188 px;"

This does work style="display:block; width:250px; height:188px;"

Other browsers (IE, Opera, Chrome, Safari) work with both of the above formats.
