Author Flash Audio trouble on Macs

The Flash audio on my pages plays when mouse is scrolled over the "Back" button on Mac Internet Browsers.
How is this happening?
Anyone?

Is this just on the Mac? I would guess your function is set to do
that, check your action in Flash.

Wow. That *is* odd!

It looks like there's a flash file with the Van Damme voice, and one with
the Twilight voice. I can get both to play while mousing over the top left
part of the page, as well as my toolbar links. This shouldn't be!

Are you positioning this file somewhere on the page? I'm really stumped on
this one.

The audio is in flash rollover buttons at various places in the page.
I do not understand either.

it seems that your buttons (that trigger the sounds) are displaced to a
wrong position somehow.

Is the green text a marquee, or is it part of the flash? If it's a
marquee it might conflict with flash content.

I took a quick look at your code and saw some very strange things: any
idea how you ended up with this kind of absurdity? There are a lot of
these, and if I was a browser, that would probably turn me crazy:

<tr align="center" valign="middle">
<td height="21">&nbsp;</td>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>

Thanks,
I'll take a look at the absurdity. Thanks.

OK, I figured out that whenever the flash buttons are off screen they play
when the browser tools are scrolled over,
but when they are ON screen they function properly.

OK. To fix it I changed the behavior of my buttons. Something about a MAC
browser that ties all the flash together somehow. Now you must click the button
instead of rolling over but this did solve the problem.
