FLASH: IE4 on mac/bad detection?

[David Owen]

I have repeated this problem on 3 Mac machines here at work all running IE4

with the latest Flash plugins (V.3r10) installed. The problem is that

certain Flash  sites are not being recognized. The result is that we are

shunted to an html version of the site or the aftershock generated gif

substitute or nothing at all. The same sites have been tested on Netscape4

and they worked fine.


This does not happen on all Flash sites, it seems to only be happening on

sites that are using a detection script of some sort. It even happens on

MACROMEDIA'S site!


If this is a bad script, who is at fault? Is this an IE4 problem? Or is it a

Macromedia problem? Until it is fixed it is most definitely a problem for

Mac users of IE4.
