I am trying to use automate a web + flash application. Our dev have provided me ExternInterface APIs, which we are able to invoke using Watire and IE. However same thing is now working on FF 3.6 and watir-webdriver/webdriver/firewatir. I am tending to assume that this is not a problem with either of the automation tool, but FF itself. However other part of our product uses js to invoke other APIs and they are working fine. So I am not able to zero in on browser or automation tool.
Any hints?
Thanks for the help.

This probably is because of the way you are embedding your swf on your webpage.
FF/Chrome use <object> tags whereas IE uses <embed> tags.
This is probably where you have missed out.
You should use SWFObject for embedding your swf and handling this kind of cross-browser embedding problems for you.
Oh, and dont forget to flag allowScriptAccess to true.
Cheers
