This snippet intercepts mouse scroll over object or embed tags, and prevents the default behaviour. The code is cross-browser, not dependent on a 3rd party library, and executes inside a self-executing function, so it won't pollute your global scope.</p> Mon, 05 Mar 2012 21:32:42 UTC https://snipplr.com/view/63718/disable-document-scrolling-when-using-mousewheel-in-flash-elements
