This issue should be resolved by now, please let us know if you're still experiencing it.
Also it's a good idea to replace the embed code with its modern version anyway.

I have a similar problem but with Internet Explorer (and possibly other browsers).
Up until about a week ago I've been successfully displaying a scrolling box of headlines on my web page using the following code:
<script src="http://s.feed.informer.com/javascripts/swfobject.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript">
var flashvars;
flashvars = {
feedCount: 50,
showSummaries: false,
scrollText: true,
showDates: true,
spaceBetweenFeeds: 15,
backgroundColor: 0xFFFFFF,
headersColor: 0x0370FF,
summariesColor: 0x000000,
sourcesColor: 0xFF0000,
datesColor: 0x999999,
headersFontSize: 11,
headersBold: false,
summariesFontSize: 11,
fontFamily: "Arial",
textAlignment: "left",
lineSpacing: 4,
verticalPadding: 5,
horizontalPadding: 5,
speed: 10,
sourceUrl: "http://app.feed.informer.com/digest3/AUZPYWGJXF.rss",
aboveTitle: "Live Feeds",
aboveTitleColor: 0x000000,
aboveTitleFont: "Arial",
aboveTitleFontSize: 15,
aboveTitleBold: false,
borderColor: 0xCCCCCC,
showBorder: false,
feedHoverColor: 0xDDDDDD
};
var params = {scale:'noscale',salign:'lt',bgcolor:'#FFFFFF'};
var attributes = {};
swfobject.embedSWF('http://media.feed.informer.com/flash/main.swf', 'FeedInformer_widget_6186', '100%', '100%', '10.0.0','',flashvars, params, attributes);
</script><div id="FeedInformer_container_6186" style="width: 500px; height: 200px"><div id="FeedInformer_widget_6186"> </div></div>
Now, however I get nothing but a blank space and if I right-click on this I get the message "Movie not loaded...". I've tried it with different versions of both IE and of Flash and on different PCs but still the same. I'd be grateful for any ideas.

That makes me happy :) While switching to flash temporarily fixed my sight, it isn't viewable on mobile devices until I'm able to switch to another method (that works clearly for my site). Have a wonderful day!

Thank you anyway. We found a problem with legacy embed codes thanks to your report.

Sorry for not being more descriptive previously.

In Firefox there is blank space where my widgets would normally appear.
-Chrome is now displaying content again properly.
I'm not finding any add-on (appearance/extensions/etc) that should be conflicting with feed informer displaying properly. I also didn't find any conflicts with the customers I spent time communicating with over the weekend.

I use FI widgets on 3 different pages on my site and the issue is occurring on all 3.

All systems are using either windows 7 or 8.
My version of Firefox is current (26.0)

Here is the script from one of the pages

What do you mean by "not being able to view", is it an empty space in place where the widget should be?
Please provide as much details on the issue as possible.

In the last week I've had a number of users (as well as myself) having issue with not being able to view feed.informer feeds in Chrome or Firefox.

I've not changed anything on my end. Is there something I can do? Anyone else having this issue?
