[Bug 401673] [NEW] Firefox Flash crashes when switching tabs

[Goulou]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I opened those 2 pages in different tabs :
http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/apollo11_landing/index.html
http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/apollo40/
(Well, not very surprising given the date... :-) )
They both contain a flash application, which works well, unless I switch tabs : the page is then filled with a gray area, at the place where the flash app were, in both tabs...
I don't know if it is related to flash plugin, or to firefox, but it is quite annoying...

Note that hitting refresh reloads the page, and the flash app works
again until I switch tabs
