Flash Cookbook - Appendix - Bug in Flash Player

There seems to be a big bug in flashplayer. If you set the tag WMODE of the embedded object to TRANSPARENT, then keyevents become messed up and can't use international characters properly.

Solution could be not to use flasplayer in transparent mode or to code around a bit and create an improved keyevent class based on character codes and table of international character codes.
