Re: FLASH: including / in an offline generator param

Hi Antoine,

Adding type="application/x-shockwave-flash"  is only helpful if the MIME

is not set. If the MIME is set then it is not needed.


When the MIME is not set and the type command is included then many

people will get Flash but some will get symptoms which include browsers

crashing. The only browsers that do not require the MIME being set are

Win versions of IE 3+.

The MIME was previously OK at FlashGen, maybe there was a crash or he

changed he servers? Hopefully now he is aware of the problem it will be

fixed soon :-)
