The animation runs fine when run just as an swf but completely different timimg when put in a webpage and viewed offline on my PC
On the two different PCs I have it runs at different times, the effects come in and out at different key points
The background animations are simple fades or tweens on a timeline
What is the best way to approach this problem to get consistent results
The movie can be viewed here

I've tested the files you sent and the .fla that was out of time in the text field did run differently in browsers. I've tested the animation in the stand alone Flash Player 9.0.115 and the Flash player 10 I had in my browsers. Here's the result of the test:
- Google Chrome build 0.4.154.29 (Flash Player 10) - Win XP SP3 - banner runs slightly faster than in the stand alone Flash Player(9.0.115)
- Opera 9.62 (Flash Player 10) - Win XP SP3 - banner runs slightly faster than in the stand alone Flash Player(9.0.115)
- Firefox 3.0.4 (Flash Player 10) - Win XP SP3 - banner runs slightly faster than in the stand alone Flash Player(9.0.115)
- Internet Explorer 7.0.5730 (Flash Player 10) - Win XP SP3 - banner runs slower than in the stand alone Flash Player(9.0.115)
- Safari 3.1.2 (Flash Player 10) - Win XP SP3 - banner runs slightly faster than in the stand alone Flash Player(9.0.115)
Unfortunately it is highly possible that your flash animations run differently in browsers (not just FlashEff or TxEff animation). It depends on the Flash Player version you have installed in your browser, on the browser you use and the version of the browser and also on the CPU you have.
The solution would be make the animation not to depend on the time in seconds but on the frames. So when there's a FlashEff or TxEff2 animation starting, make sure it has enough frames to finish the animation and the hide animation should use a different FlashEff or TxEff2 instance. For example the show-display-hide animation sequence of your text should use two different TxEff2 instances: one for the show animation; then remove the TxEff2 instance while the text is only displayed; and use another TxEff2 instance for the hide animation. However, this solution may not be the bets one, but it would help.
