    I wonder if there is anyway on how to freeze/pause (and then resume) online (web-based) flash enabled games that has time limit. The sole purpose of this is to buy me more time.

    Is there any third party program that could help me? I have also looked for a firefox add-on but can't seem to find any. The best I've got was a bookmarklet that lets me freeze, pause and seek flash enabled objects BUT it doesn't work on all flash.

    Bookmarklet has the following function: javascript:for(i=0; o=document.getElementsByTagName("object"); ++i) try{F(o)}catch(e){}; for(i=0; o=document.getElementsByTagName("embed"); ++i) try{F(o)}catch(e){}; function F(o){ if(o.timer){clearInterval(o.timer); o.timer=0; } if (o.IsPlaying()) o.StopPlay(); else o.Play(); }

    But then again it doesn't work on most flash.

    I would really appreciate any input from you guys. I REALLY need to find a way on how to pause or somehow freeze flash.

    Thanks.
