Hello,
I’m wondering how to ensure flash detection is working on a site.
I have downloaded several flash detection kits / solutions, but unsure how to implement them or if they are working.
I want it to either load http://leayah.com/index.html or go to http://leayah.com/noflash.html with download plugin link.
One big problem is that I have flash installed on all my browsers. Can I uninstall Flash for just one browser, ie ) keep Flash installed on Firefox but uninstall it on Safari?
It seems like it would be time consuming option to have to reinstall / uninstall Flash to test flash detection every time??!
