Re: images and flash issue in IE

If you are using a 64-bit browser, then Flash will not work. There is (as yet) no adobe plugin for 64-bit browsers.

That's one reason I don't ever use flash... another is it takes too long to load most flash files, and finally they tend to be distractions - taking the customer's attention off the product info.

Re: images and flash issue in IE

Thanks, but I'm afraid that's not the case, I'm using 32 bit.
And more than the flash (it's a white space anyway), the main problem are the images ...

Re: images and flash issue in IE

But your CUSTOMERS may use 64-bit...

Flash should ONLY be used if it enhances a product and encourages a sale.

Using flash (or any dancing animation) just for the sake of it is pointless. They can be (and usually are) more of a distraction than an enhancement.

Re: images and flash issue in IE

I'm sorry, I may have not been very clear:
the biggest issue is the images that don't display, I can live with the flash not displaying.

Besides that, the 32/64 bit os is NOT the case, if I don't see them while using the 32, means the issue is there regardless of that.
