This is a bit confusing.....Shockwave is a player that plays Flash content. .SWF is Shockwave Flash. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SWF There are many Flash players out there, so that's why I was wondering what Eric used if he doesn't have Shockwave installed, how does Flash content play on webpages. -Clint God Bless, Clint Hamilton, Owner www.OrpheusComputing.com www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com www.OrpheusComputing.com/cheap_reliable_web_hosting.html www.OrpheusComputing.com/PCworks-computer-help-email-list.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hugh Vandervoort" <hughv2@xxxxxxxxxxx> Shockwave is not Flash: http://poster66.com/eeurope/products/shockwaveplayer/ On Fri, Aug 27, 2010 at 1:58 AM, Clint Hamilton-PCWorks Admin <> wrote: > Eric you need to include the email to which you are replying > in > your replies. > > So since most sites use Flash now, how do you view Flash if > it's not installed?
