My boss sometimes goes to meetings where there is no internet access, but she has to show some stuff (html pages w/ embedded .swf pieces) we developed that must run in a browser. 9 times out of 10, the browser is Internet Explorer, and most of the time the browser doesn’t already have the Flash player already installed.
I searched Macromedia’s website for downloadable players for the two main browsers (IE and Netscape/Mozilla) and I got to this page:
http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/alternates/
I was able to download the separate extension for Netscape/Mozilla, but I was not able to do it for Internet Explorer. I tried downloading it using Firefox and Netscape, which always leads me to a page with instructions, but no appropriate link. When I try to download it in Internet Explorer, it automatically does it then jumps to a page saying it’s done.
Bottom line: How can I download the Flash Player ActiveX for Internet Explorer (so that I can save it on a disk then install it on computers w/ no internet access)?
