I deleted everything having to do with Flash and then re-installed the player and plugin. After being taken to the Macormedia site, I followed one of the links they provide to check the plugin and it worked.

I came back here to try Gary's link... it doesn't work. I can't access the flash game I posted awhile back either. Go Here to Check Link.

Bruce, there's something funny about that link - I had to dig it out of the source code in order to paste it into my browser address line and get it to work (startled me too eek2.gif !)

At first I thought my Flash was broken in Safari too - but then decided to check out some other Flash sites - no problems there.

See if this link works any better:

edit: nope - still get blank page. I dunno...copying and pasting works, but not a straight link.

Paddy,

Nope... that link and the one I posted above just will not work. All I get is a blank page with Go To This Address in the address line.

The Flash plugin works as it should with Mozilla and Internet Explorer. It used to work with Safari 1.0.

Bruce - try this one:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/shared/spl/hi/midd...tml/default.stm

It's a BBC site that has a Flash map (I did a Google search on "good Flash sites"...wink.gif )

It seems to work fine.

 Nope...

Chalk it up to another bug in Safari 1.1

I sent my sons Bill's "What's missing in the room" link and the crazy artist youngest one sent this one to me. Scared the b'jezzus outta me too. Thank goodness I was too lazy to "click here to enlarge to full screen and turn volume up". Probably would have killed the dog.

By the way...The above mentioned son is an artist for Hallmark and is working with a G5...says it's awesome. 'Course he has to work with big PhotoShop files and uses a 80 gig drive dedicated solely to PhotoShop scratch.

I'd like to assume that what he sent you will never show up in a birthday card I receive. Will it??? jawdrop.gif

Yay! clap.gif I found out about a workaround for the Safari 1.1 link to Flash problem!

If you click and drag the posted URL to the desktop and then drag that back to the Safari window, the window opens to the Flash page as it should!

I can live with that, for now. dry.gif  smile.gif
