AIR Full screen & hosted swf content in HTML control

Unfortunately, AIR 1.5 removes the ability to view swf content in an HTML control when the application is set to full screen mode.  You can read about it a little more and see an example application at this bug report.  It’s a bummer since it worked perfectly in AIR before 1.5

It’s a shame because it’ll prevent us from using AIR for one of the projects we had hoped to.  I imagine it’ll also impact people wishing to use AIR to create a kiosk type application.

    Yes, this was a mistake. We’re working on rectifying this for the upcoming dot release and restoring the original behavior.
