well i've just been trying to get to some Flash sites this arvo. i can still view the site, but when it checks for Flash, for some reason it doesn't detect. i installed Flash again but it hasn't helped any...

one site i noticed this on was AnimalLogic.com/play (http://www.animallogic.com/play). it should load with a Flash index there. at onel point it started to load the Flash index, and i could see the things moving, then it started to load the /noflash.index?? :confused:

i also tried Camino there, but no luck with that either.

any else experience this? is it Safari, Camino or is it the site?

I think it's a problem with the site. It doesn't work in all 7 of my browsers (and other pages with Flash things do), and I have the Flash 7 and Quicktime 6.5 plugins. I had a quick look at the page's source code, and it has a lot of browser specific code there when detecting requirements. Changing the User Agent in Safari doesn't help either.

What seems to be the problem? Site works fine for me with Safari on 10.3.2. All flash animations load.
Those plug-in checks on other sites are really annoying, they don't work with Safari and then I have to figure out link to flash page with source and activity window..
