Recently I was developing a new site for a client that had exceptionally high processor usage for every page load.  Now I have other Drupal sites on this server that use a similar module setup but use a lot less processor.  My interest was piqued.

I've been using FF3 for a while now so I didn't notice this issue but as soon as I loaded FF2 it was obvious.   Firefox has issues when you dynamicly load flash through SWF object on a Mac.  In FF2 with a Mac all you'll see is a white box that requires you to click on it... then everything will look correct. If you don't want your users to have to click a flash object just to have the page look the way you intended then try the code below.

To fix it you just need to force a quick little behind the scenes redraw in javascript:
