Cheers for the URL... But what I like about http://buypower.vauxhall.co.uk/trafficnet/ is it is updated very often near realtime through traffic roadside sensors... I know in IE'$ it works ok :( and should work in Konq etc... as I tested your URL and I see flash plugin is working fine...:) I'll ask them to look at this is Unix/Linux browsers.. Thx Dre ;) -------------

Yeah under Moz in Windlows it works fine for me too... but not under Linux / Moz.. I got flash-plugin-6.0.69-6.i386.rpm from their MM's site. Still no joy... Thx Dre ;)

Works with Moz in (ahem) Windows. Hey - I'm at work!

But - you need the Shockwave plugin, not Shockwave Flash - yup, there's a difference. You should be able to get it from the Macromedia website.

I had no problem getting the Flash plugin to work with Mozilla & Galeon. I assume you have Mozilla located in /opt/mozilla? That's the default location for it in SuSE 8.1.

If so, make certain you have the following two files in /opt/mozilla/plugins:

flashplayer.xpt libflashplayer.so

Once those files are in the plugins directory, close Mozilla (if open) and start it up. If you check "about: plugins" on the Help menu, you should see Shockwave Flash listed.

If you have Mozilla located somewhere other than /opt/mozilla, then put the files in /path.to/mozilla/plugins.

--======================== Just before this site asked for Shockwave, I got a quick window asking for DirectX also. Since only windoze does DirectX, I would suspect that to be the problem on the Linux side, more than Shockwave. I never have a problem with Shockwave sites in Konq or Mozilla, so my guess is these guys need to fix their site! Having a windows only site these days is just being out of touch with reality. Of course, the UK seems to only slowly be moving away from such things as M$ has had them (UK government) in their grip for a while now.
