I just experienced a realy weird problem with flash: I had a form in a flash. The form works fine in Internet Explorer. But in Firefox (not tested in other browsers) some special characters (capital umlauts, at-sign (@) didn’t work. The at-sign worked by pressing shift-2 (that’s default on EN-keyboards, but not on DE). After some searching I found out that removing the wmodeparameter fixes that. I’m not a flash guy so I can’t really explain it. While investigating my problem I found two articles describing wmode: Flash: wmode = transparent = evil (Firefox) (German) and Flash, DHTML Menus and Accessibility (English).

With this very useful Add On you can stop Firefox asking for a mismatching Certificate. I have a server with a self-signed certificate which I use for several domain names, so the name doesn’t match. But I know it’s my Certificate so always getting a warning about this Certificate is annoying.
