:confused; I have a completed site that works yet I am having some stability
issues with it causing browser crashing. It doesn't happen on any particular
button or section, just randomly.

The site is built in the following manner:
There is a main.swf file that is root zero.
All other external swfs are being loaded into it using the following code:

stop();
//hide the preloader
preloaderGraphics._visible = false;
//initialise a variable
nextMovie = "home.swf";
//load the starting movie into level 1
loadMovieNum(nextMovie, 1);
//button1 actions
home_btn.onRelease = function() {
if (nextMovie != "home.swf") {
nextMovie = "home.swf";
_level1.gotoAndPlay("outro");
}
};

I also have a slideshow component in some of the external swf sections
(slideshowpro).

The site works but also crashes the browser a little too often.
The other issue that I have noticed is that the site "Quality" switches on
it's own to POOR causing the images to look bitmaped. I can switch it back to
HIGH by right clicking and changing the setting, but I don't believe that this
is a normal thing to happen.

I am hoping that someone out there has seen this problem or has any
information for me at all.
The test site link is as follows:

topic.

I am not sure what to say to be more clear on this issue. Everything in the
site works fine but I am having a consistent problem when switching sections on
the site. On click every so often the site will cause the browser to crash no
matter which browser I am viewing the site in? I have a few people that are
checking this site daily to test this issue and they are also having the same
problem with the browser crashing. I get a report about a mile long to send
into apple everytime that it happens. I suppose having a look at that report
might be of interest yet that is all I can offer. I would allow access to the
FLA files for review if I could find a way to post them up here. Would it be
possible to ZIP the contents of the site and have it up here for download.
Would that be of help?
