Pleco Forums running Flash

[Shun]

Hi,

I just noticed that Pleco Forums wanted to run Adobe Flash on a Mac Firefox. Could this be a mistake, since I can't see any use for flash on a forum site?

Thanks,

Shun

Hmm, not seeing it here, and not something we host on our end - if you go into Tools / Web Developer / Network and select just the Flash tab, does it tell you anything about the flash script it's trying to run?

Yes, the file is called "swfupload.swf". See the following two screenshots:

Ah, sorry, checked the main page rather than a post reply page - that Flash script is for attachment file uploads. (well known open source project)

Hi Mike,

I see, thanks! I see it provides more functionality than what's built into the browser.
