Cross Browser code

Hello everyone

I have created a website for a picky client and was wondering how flash could be read and view about the same to all browser aka iE,Netscape,AOL and even web TV also on different O/S like Mac OSX and Linux.

Is there such a code? Where can I find it ?

???

When you publish your movie to an HTML file the embed code automatically put in there works on every browser just the same :-\

I don’t think I understand.

Well when I published this site www.denglish.com It wont show on older version of Netscape and neither on Web TV because I had published it as flash6 now I am wondering if I could change something in my coding to make it even more cross browser friendly.www.denglish.com

That must be an old old old version of Netscape if it doesn’t support Flash.

Either that or you didn’t download the Flash 6 plugin for Netscape (or that version).

And webTV… people still use that!!! It can’t view anything right (from what I hear).

I think if you your client want more audiences by including those using WebTV, I think you should offer them an HTML alternative. I think WebTV doesn’t support Flash properly much more Flash MX. A freind of mine in the states told me that not even all javascript code can work on WebTV.

:-\

don’t put your hope too high on AOL…

Yeah, when webTV was the biggest thing out everyone I knew said it never displayed anything properly and they couldn’t stand it.

I think customer should also be up to date and to make them understand to upgrade there browser or use the proper pluggin is way too complex. The best solution is still HTML.
Nothing as change since 1994.

Thank you all for your reply.

Well updating a plug in is automatic if it isn’t installed. Flash should come up with a pop up saying you need to update your plugin to view.

Other than the plug in, the embed code is the same for any browser.

Technology is ever changing they say that technology will obsolete itself. People should think about the benifits of technology. On the web people should try to spend “something” for what technology can offer. But sad to say it is because of this “something” that most people hate. :frowning:

Lostinbeta you sure dont deal with old client. Because my old client, when they see a popup of the plug in they think this could be a virus there computer has catch or something they wont even read the content and close it down before they could ever understand what happend LOL.
Now I think this could be a good businees to teach elderly.
Sorry for the animated gif. I didnt know the rules.

LOL, your right I don’t. Being as I am not a professional I don’t get much/if any clients.

But you could also use Javascript to detect the plugin and redirect to an error page stating why they were redirected there and then asking them to follow a link to download the plug in. They MIGHT understand that more :beam:

moock.org has a free and very comprehensive flash sniffer. By the way, if your swf doesn’t utilize flash 6 technology, don’t export it as flash 6. Most everyone has the flash 4 plug-in, but last time I checked not even half of web users had Flash 6.

Yeah… Flash 5 plugins are more popular than Flash 6.
